That was excellent! I would love to learn the traditional cups and balls. I know most of the technique, but could you please reccommend somewhere I could find the required props? :)

Thanks.

try those stainless steel desert bowls that you can buy in pound shops.
the balls, are just standard balls. Sponge balls work too.

Very nice! Eddie Joseph has published some good stuff on the Indian (or Hindu) Cups and Balls.

These are authentic coconut shell cups and a coconut wood wand specifically designed for performing the Hindu Cups and Balls in the 'traditional style'.

I am also currently writing a book explaining in detail the 'traditional style' work for the first time.
