Speevers
the fun of Juggling and Innovations
It all started with a pair of socks ... A
few years ago travelling in Thailand
and like many others I discovered the
art of Poi. I‘m the type who always
pushes things bit further, so I thought
it would be interesting to add another
ball to the Poi on the opposing side.
I returned home, bought two pairs
of childrens’ socks and sewed them
together: the first ever double Poi
was born and later earned the name
„Speevers“.
During experimenting and trying to
sell my new products, I left the High-
Tech world behind and found myself
more and more in the Jugglers world.
I started to wander around juggling
conventions, got to know some
amazing performers and made new
friends. With the food came the appetite.
I developed a couple of products
and afew months later found myself
travelling around Europe in a hired
car, packed full of juggling products,
going from shop to shop, from festival
to party, bathing in lakes and sleeping
in tents or on peoples sofas. So began
my company „Speevers“.
The World‘s first Live Juggling Shop
The best thing about Juggling is the
interaction with people. Two years
ago I opened a huge, fun house in
Yafo Israel. Eat your heart out – I also
live there! Here we have juggling gatherings,
workshops and sell products
and equipment. Artists from all over
the world have been hosted here, but
lately I thought that it would be nice
to open the door to everyone, even
if you are based overseas! With the
help of technology and the internet
we created the Speevers Live Juggling
Shop. With one click of a button you
can have interactive video discussions
with our jugglers, ask questions and
see demonstrations of products and
feel as close as possible. All you need
is a browser and a microphone.
LSD or LED? The optic-fibre trip
I‘ve never taken these types of substances
before, but one night when
I sat in a dark room programming a
Stardass psychedelic light series I think
I understood what Dr. Hoffman spoke
about. All night long the optical reasons
whistled through the air while
colouring the sky with crazy effects.
There are no trips like the fun of
inventing and developing new products
and concepts!
The magic of fire
It took me a long time, but the
moment I started with fire I was
„burnt“. Fire has power and passion
equal to nothing else. After a long
search, I found special fire-proof fabrics.
With these fabrics we managed
to create fire tools that enabled tricks
and moves that until today weren‘t
possible, with higher safety levels. In
addition, believe it or not, we developed
a line of fashion clothing that is
fire-resistant and wonderfully comfortable.
The clothes look and feel like
the clothes you are wearing now, they
clean easily and hardly retain odour.
On visits to the Far East I discovered
the Meteor and Rope Dart. They are
both ancient and amazing instru-
The amazing stardass with
fibre optic tails! Make psychedelic
fractal patterns that
will amaze!
