Table-Drop Start
This one requires almost no skill, in fact it's barely a trick, but it
does look cool. You and a friend are talking and your ajs are on a
table, with the middle aj at one end. Pick up the double-aj end, move
it over the floor, drop the middle aj, and let it pull the other end
off the table. Before your friend knows what's going on, you've got a
vertical orbit going. Not difficult or especially practical, but with
the right timing it can be impressive. And what's the point of aj'ing
without showing off a bit, eh? ;) Difficulty: 1/2
Flip-Catch Start
Hold the middle aj and let the ends hang about even. You may want to
offset them a bit. Then swing the ends forwards, drop the middle, and
catch one end. Presto: a vertical orbit. Difficulty: 1

50-50 venus
Get on your skateboard and hold your astrojax
Then do a 50=50 grind while doing a venus.
MArvellous marvelly, 29/01/03
This 1 is realy simple
1st holdt the string in the middle so that 1 ball is on 1 side and 2 r on
the other throw the string out of ur hand and cath it again but in a different
place let the balls glide around 4 a bit then keep catching and throwing with
the odd glide inbetween it looks complicated from the viewers point of view
but easy 2 controll wow ur m8s that havnt got a aj and tell them it was a
very difficult trick and took u ages 2 perfect

Ultimate spinner
You start with a vertical orbit, then turn it into a horizontal orbit
This will look like a quicker spin that ever
But its not over
Grab the middle ball and move your left hand vicously and then the end ball
will fly around causing then when you’ve had enough spin backwords let
go of the middle nall and then a vertical orvit starts again
Marcus, 21/01/03
This trick should be done outside unless you want to
break something.
First you hold an end ball in the hand you write with start doing a controlled
horizontal orbit then flick your wrist up so your horizontal orbit is right
in front
of your head 1 or 2 seconds later drop it into a vertical orbit.
This trick needs practice to get it right (Quite advanced)
John Farrar, 21/01/03
Swing
start with a vertical orbit, swing the bottom ball over you arm, forming a
triangle and swing the middle ball in and out the triangle...!
its hard not to get the middle ball tangled!
Microchap, 12/01/03
Solar System!
start off with a butterfly, but tug really hard and it should spin round so
I rate it***
SCOUSER, 09/01/03
I made up a trick where you bounce the astrojax off
your hand, making it
go the other way, and then you let go of the top one, making a constant
juggle. When you get it high enough, you grab switch one more time and
then really grab it.
Alexander Body Trick Master (age 11), 08/01/03
Madness (quite dangerous)!
I only got my astrojax a week ago and i was messing about
and did this, it looks quite good to me anyway...
Start by doing vertical orbits, then sharply move your hand from
side to side, letting it pass through the other two jax. You'll
get the feel of how fast to move your hand...too fast and you'll get hurt!
I hav Vmax, so when they hit my hands...OUCH!

The Slicer
Ok this is quite a hard trick but gets easier as you practice like all tricks.
I have put it in Step by Step form to make it easy to understand and follow.
1. Buy yourself some AJ from some toy store or anywhere that sells them
2. Place an open pair of scissors across the any part of the string
3. Close the scissors with the string still inside the them.
4. Slide the middle AJ to the end of the string where it should come off
5. Throw the AJ at a window but do it from a safe distance
6. Repeat these steps 5 more times to gain perfection and large window bills
Easy as counting to 1 with an electronic counting to 1 machine which can now
be found under the name of a calculator.
PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT SO DO THIS TRICK VERY OFTEN!

Blitzoff ( Starter.)
If u have played on Final Fantasy X u will know wot a Blitzball looks like.
For u ppl who dont it looks like a football but blue and a bit bigger. to
do this starter just follow these easy steps. (trick is explained for right
handers. swap around if ure a left hander.) I've only had my AJ's a week so
this isnt the best move ever. It looks good when pulled off though.
1. Hold 1 of the end balls in youre left hand.
2. Hold middle ball in right hand.
3. Hold balls so DB is the same level as youre knee.
4. Now let the ball which is dangling below (DB) stay still.
5. Now kick the DB and it should go up and around in a shape of a 2D Blitzball.
6. Now when it reaches the top of the second spin let the middle ball go.
7. This should start a vertical orbit.
8. Try a harder version instead of finishing with Vertical Orbit finish with
Horizontal Orbit.
MNL, 05/01/03
This trick is rated lvl: ***
start with a vertical orbit that spins towards you!! Then point out your index
finger and catch the ball ( on your finger ) as it flys over it! Then quikly
flik the middle ball over your index finger so it comes towards you. It should
now carry on as a vertical orbit!!

The Zimmy Zammy (repeatable)
difficulty 5* when not repeating 3*
1.spin the middle ball as fast as you can with both hands on the oter top
and bottom balls
2. then let go of 1 ball
3.then let go of the other catch the middle bal
4.swing so they obit your hand
5.then it gets tricky let go, grab the top ball while hitting the bottom with
your foot
6.then let go once again then grab both ends (not the middle 1!) then hit
the middle with your foot to get the circulation going again then repeated
see how many you can do also if your not continuing don't do 4, 5 and 6 MAKE
sure there is a lot of room before you do this trick

Wild-thing Combo
First you do a vertical orbit then 2 venuses in a row
then get it into a horisontal orbit then shoot it forwards
and pull it back into a grandfather clock throw it up in the
air and catch the other end of the aj's an carryon with a vertical orbit.
jaxoman, 01/01/03
THE SIDERMAN JUGGLE
Get into a vertical orbit start position but with the AJ that you keep, lay
it on your palm with the string running between your middle and ring finger.
Let go of the other AJ and get a vertical orbit going. While doing this get
your hand with the AJ in the Spiderman position (when he's firing his web).
Then as the swinging AJ comes up let go of the AJ in your hand and catch the
swinging AJ in the Spiderman position and keep on swinging. There you have
it!
Jonathan Pearmain, 31/12/02
Jack Flick
start by doing a vertical orbit then when the bottom ball gets high flick
it over your arm then as the middle ball is hanging down then flick it the
same way and then back to a vertical orbit.i call it the jack flick.
Jack Humphrey, 31/12/02
Zipwire start
Hold the middle and a end AJ and start a swinging motion. When the AJ gets
just past vertical let go of the middle one and it zip down the string onto
the other ball and it should create a vertical orbit.
AJ trick master, 28/12/02
The Spider-Man
Hold the ball in starting position but the one you keep hold of lay it
on your palm with the string between your middle finger and your ring
finger .Use any trick (I think it works better with vertical orbit) then
swing your arm forward try and keep the trick working. (If you want make
the spider-man hand symbol to make it look like web. Warning Be Careful
you may lose control.
Twig, 28/12/02
deadly butterfly
do a butterfly then swing it over your head , stop for a second and let the
end free ball rebound off your head then drop to vertical orbits.
you must use soft astrojaxs for dis move unless you like pain.
the level for dis move iz ***
MARKY, 27/12/02
High kick
Get a vertical orbit going then flick your hand to one side and the bottom
AJ should fling to the side like a kick.HHHUUWWWAAAA! Easy-peasy.

Ferris Wheel
Start a horizontal orbit and then swop the ball in your hand with your other
hand and pass it around your bodie.After loads of practice you can trie to
rotate your bodie in the opposite dirrection aswell, this is called a varial
ferris wheel.
AJ trick master, 27/12/02
switch balls
Get a vertical orbit spinning and then get the bottom ball to flip over your
arm. This should create a Y shape. Now use your left hand to grab the lowest
ball. Pull your right arm away and use your left arm to get a vertical orbit
going.
AJ trick master, 27/12/02
zip wire.
It is very basic, all you need to do is hold the right ball and the middle
ball in your right hand and get the left ball swinging from left to right.
As the ball begins to reach 90degrees let go of the middle ball and it will
slide down the string and start a vertical orbit.
AJ trick master, 27/12/02
This trick is called a counter balance start.
hold the middle ball with your left hand and the right ball with your right
hand. Let the left ball dangle. Sharply pull the right ball down and let go
of the middle ball. the left ball should shoot up and the middle ball should
fall down. This should create a vertical orbit.
AJ trick master, , 27/12/02
Volcano
Be carefull not to hit windows or lights doing this trick. Start a controlled
virtical orbit then perform a sharp tug and the bottom ball should launch
vertically into the air like a volcano.
AJ trick master, 27/12/02
The whirlwind venus
To do this hold the left ball in your left hand and the right ball with the
right hand.Then put your arms out and spin each hand to make the middle ball
spin too.THEN let go with the hand that you don`t write with and quickly pull
it into a venus,TADAAAA!!!
Adam Shaw, 26/12/02
Shotgun
Put the middle astro jax in your hand along with one of the end ones, then
leaving one dangling then start to sway the bottom astro jax (SLOWLY!) then
when a steady pace has arrived, let the middle one drop, when it is close
to the bottom, start a vertical orbit, this is a shotgun - great way to start
doing vertical orbits! :)
Adam and Josh Todd, 26/12/02
Butterfly around the world
(you must be able to butterfly)
Start off with a vertical orbit, then with a steady pace go into a butterfly,
but do it to the side of you, (remember the around the world with a yoyo?)
spin the butterfly in a clock motion from front to back so, its a butterfly,
doing a large spin to the side of you, this makes the butterfly change into
the butterfly around the world
Adam and Josh Todd, 26/12/02
Here's a good trick that I haven't tried
yet but works in theory. I call it:
Meteor Catch
Start off doing a vertical orbit, then throw the top ball into the air. Catch
the other end one and start a vertical orbit again. Keep repeating this until
your mates faint with boredom and the exhaustion of standing up so long.
Spinmeister, 25/12/02
Switching the v
Ok so you go into the v shape (starting position) the you want to let go of
them and grab the middle ball. Meaning them to switch. once done so ytou just
let go of the middle and back to the outside balls. rating *
Andrew, 25/12/02
put the ajs in a starting pos,pull the
sid balls out so the middle one cum flyin upwrds,quickly catch it and the
two outer balls will of swaped places,catch them quickly.for a 360 multi start
let the balls spin right back 2 the same hand and catch.
gavin aka*aj erus, 25/12/02
pull the sting so your aj's are straight
the put your foot on the middle one and push with your foot and let go. DO
THIS VERY QUICK? If you don't you will end up with one fat..... very swollen
foot. i call this the push up.
Tobester, 25/12/02
The Diversion
Start by doing a vertical orbit, then move your hand side-to-side (like the
butterfly). Stick your index finger out, and the string beween the middle
ball and free ball should catch on your finger, flinging the balls the other
way. Looks pretty good once you do it. Skill level : **
Christopher Smith, scotland, 24/12/02
Swing
-Start by holding the two strings on both sides of the middle ball.
-Drop the strings and catch the middle ball
-tug the middle ball continously to make the two side balls swing.
Mykell, 24/12/02
Spiral start
Hold the two end balls andswing he balls aaround in the middle then let go
of one ball and tug the remaining ball in your hand.
Edwin Peace, 23/12/02
The Catapult.
Start with the vertical, then with a quick sharp jerk upwards throw all balls
into the air, turn yourself around 180degrees and catch the end ball behind
your back, try to carry the vertical orbit on but with knees slightly bent
launch the asto-jax between your legs to catch it at your front and carry
the vertical on to be thrown into the air again to be caught with your good
hand and continue again. This took alot of dedicated practice and the best
advice I can give is when turned 180degrees bend you best leg at the knee
so as to catch it if missed and use the 'Kick Start' technique by twisting
your boy and leg (while the astro-jax is layed over your calf/heel) and kick
it into the air to carry on.
Rich Moody 22/12/02
Reaching the Butterflies
To do this trick, start off with vertical orbits coming towards you and then
do a really big one so it goes very high up, when it comes back down, start
moving your wrist from left to right like doing with the butterfly and the
astrojax will perform a butterfly. This trick is quite hard to master at first
but when you master it, it becomes simple!
The finished trick should go high up in an orbit and then transform into a
butterfly.
JaxMaster, 21/12/02
Spin Spiral
Hold one end of the ball and start a vertical orbit. Then all you have to
do is just spin the aj around in a circle.
Michael Boother, 21/12/02
hi i have found a new starter trick hold
the two end ball in your left hand and hold the middle ball in the other hand
swing the middle ball then let of one of the other balls it should go into
a vertical orbits this is called vertigo
Jaxuk64, 20/12/02
ok...i only got my astro saturn yesterday
so dont laugh.
start doing a verticle orbit so the orbiting ball is moving away from you
at its peak.
sharply move your playing hand up and slightly back,if correct force is used
the free end ball should go behind your arm and over your shoulder while leaving
the middle ball under your arm. as the end ball passes over your shoulder
bounce it of your playing forearm as it is about shoulder hight in fromt of
you. this should send the ball back on the path it came and effectively reverse
the orbit. as the ball travels back when you feelt the most tension(when you
apply upward motion to maintain an orbit)move your playing arm(mine is right
so i will asume you ar using that for the next bit) diganully up to the right
and forward with considerable force sending the two ball up away from you.
then as string becomes taunt flex your arm at the elbow so your forearm is
horizontal across your face. (be carefunn as is you use to much force a black
eye will follow.the balls should land on your foream in the position of a
half complete venus. you just finish the venus and your away.
only succeeded a few times and i have a good black eye.
Andrew Anderton, 19/12/02
spin cycle
heres a simple trick 4 u begin by holding the 2 end balls and spin the middle
ball really fast and pull the ends but before it stops spining let go of the
left ball and do a vertical orbit.
daniel cope, 19/12/02
AROUND THE UNIVERSE (advanced)
Just start off by doing venes then hold the middle ball and put your thomb
and one of your fingers out to the side so the string is shaped like a rectangle
shape. Then throw the free ball through the rectangle so it circles your arm
once. Then swing the ball back through and let go.While you let it go throw
the ball over to your hand about 60cm away from your other hand. Then circle
that hand with the ball and the middle ball swinging down to your other hand.Circle
it back round andlet it free.(if your hand is weak then the ball will freely
do a big slow flip.
Matthew.Low 18/12/02
Ace tick
first do a verticle orbit then catch the ball on your arm and
through the other ball over your arm aswell. then catch the ball as it
comes back down!
Hanna Lawrence, 18/12/02
whip it 8
You'll need an open space for this trick. If start out whipping the jax from
side to side (pretty hardly) you'll get a figure eight (it might take a while
for the figure eight to form). If it doesn't form a figure eight it will do
something cool.
Tip: It looks cool with your lights on.

hold 2 balls ,swing them round. the one
in the middle is going round. let go of one ball .watch it spin round then
catch it.
Zachary Francis age 10, 14/12/02
hold the 2 end balls about where your
elbows are and swing them round then
bring the aj's upright and tighten the string this should make them spin
faster so the centre ball looks like a ring.
Patrick Readshaw. 13/12/02
first get the in the venus position the
V on one side of your arm and the
other end ball hanging over while you hold the other end ball. flick up your
arm and swing your arm back and catch the hanginging end ball
patrick readshaw 13/12/02
Do a vertical spin. Lift up your leg and
let the aj's spin under it and they will do a trick aiming at the sky. Then
try it land it and if you do it will zoom on the other side of you. And then
its just a case of doing vertical orbits.
Dificulty level * * *
Joe in OXFORD 11/12/02
Start normally doing vertical orbits,
do three spins and throw the ajs in front of you and loop them around in the
air. They should land back in a horizontal orbit at the end.
Dificulty rating **
Joe in OXFORD 11/12/02
Start with one of the two outer ajs in
each of hands. Still holding on, swing around the middle aj. Spin it ten times
and on the eleventh let go of the one in your right hand, or if your left
handed let go of the one in your left hand. And after it does the Braintwister
tug it up a little and it will go back into vertical orbits. Dificulty rating

Volcano Start
Hold the right ball in your hand
and put your bottom balls on the floor spaced out.Then put your foot on the

Astro Twurl 6/1202
Orbital split
Grab one ball in your hand and give a big tug upwards, stick your index finger
out, put your finger underneath the string between the two balls and if you
do it right the balls will go in opposite directions.
Tip:when doing the orbital split,after the balls have gone in different directions,slip
your finger out or the string may wrap around your finger.
D.N.A
All you do is simply hold one ball in your hand and smoothly pull it from
left to right by bending youre elbow, do it right and itll look like a spiral.
John Preston 1/12/02

HEY Dudes this trick is called the Parrot on the Perch
First get into a vertical orbit then swing the outer ball over your arm and
then swing it back again into a vertical orbit but this time its going the
other way!!!!!!!!!
Spaceman...15/11/02
Double Venus
Start with vertical orbits, making sure that the lowest swinging ball comes
up to the same height as the ball in your hand. Then perform a venus, but,
as the ball comes over your wrist, make a small circle motion with the hand
holding the ball in the same direction as the lower ball is swinging. If you
did it right, you should do two Venus' right after one another!
Switch start
Hold the two end balls in your hand. Swing your arm forward and release the
ball nearest your body. If done correctly, it should return to you at head-height.
Then simply let go of the ball in your hand and catch the other, leading into
vertical orbits for an impressive start.
