Basic Elements for Take Out Passing (Workshop)
This series will help you learn the basic elements you need to know for mastering take out passing patterns (also known as manipulation patterns). You can start practicing these in order or check in the tags which elements you need for the pattern that you want to learn next. The self-substitute:For the self-substitute the Manipulator replaces a thrown self with an extra club. This can be in a passing pattern, but you can also practice it with 2 people.Communicate beforehand which club you want to substitute (e.g. in 4-count every fourth). In manipulation passing we want to help each other
DumbER Ways to Die (Huiiiii)
‘Dumb ways to die’ is a 4 person manipulator pattern invented by Ed that is based on the civil war feed. If you want more people: you can add a second manipulator!There are probably many ways to do this, but Psycho and Kathi invented this version called “Dumber ways to die (Huiiiii)”If you want to learn 'Dumb ways to die' first, check it out here: https://passing.zone/dumb-ways-to-die/ https://vimeo.com/1051520999?share=copy
Recap of PassOut Dreiskau-Muckern
THANKS TO THE ORGAS FOR AN AWESOME PASSOUT! At the end of every year the PassOut community comes together to share our love of passing and to celebrate the New Year. This year our home for the week was Dreiskau-Muckern, specifically the Ökologisches Landwirtschaftsschulheim. Over 90 people attended and our busiest day was the 29th of December, when all 75 beds in the house were full. The rooms were all named after animal's homes. I was in the hedgehog nest 🦔 When we arrived we were all given a Pass-a-Match card with 10 patterns on. Every pair of people had exactly
Muckabout
https://vimeo.com/1044476338 Muckabout is a classic manipulator pattern which is described in Aiden Burn's "How to steal from your friends". There are three jugglers juggling a three count feast and two manipulators, one doing right handed six count roundabout and one doing left handed three count roundabout. A muckabout workshop was given at passout 2024-2025 and the demo team decided to film it too :)
Three Cylinder
https://vimeo.com/1042933602 A small error in crossing wankle engine led to this beauty: A (and A') stays a "lazy" feeder forever while B, C and M change roles and hands continuously.
Techno Manipulation Patterns
We were inspired to add a manipulator to Techno and came up with four variations! These 8-club patterns were first juggled in Albuquerque, New Mexico by Lana Bolin, Ian Chesser and Omar Ramirez.
Lazy Why Not About
https://vimeo.com/1028155602/d34353b9c3?share=copy
3-count friction (fcc)
https://youtu.be/Bwz03QTr1WQ fcc is a 8-handed siteswap for 4 people, 8 hands and 13 clubs (^-^) Juggled by John, Jonathan, Tillman and Helena during SaarCon, Aug 2024.
Cold Shoulder
Cold Shoulder is a new pattern that copies the manipulation of the regular roundabout into a three count base pattern. After a bit of fooling around with different styles of manipulation we came up with a version that doesn't have zips, therefore contains a magic club that is never thrown - the perfect attribute to make it a beer passing pattern, or in our case an ice cream passing pattern.
We Will Rock You
A very short pattern that we accidentally created at the EJC 2024 while trying to create Ambled Mini Scrambleds, but we ended up arriving at something entirely different.
Ambled Mini V (iC cA)
https://vimeo.com/999942326?share=copy Ambled Mini V is the first pattern to add an extra club to Wiebke's Mini Scrambled family of patterns, specifically to Mini V (#6). Since it is shorter than a "full" Ambled pattern and has an easier feeding sequence, we might start recommending Mini Ambleds to people who want to start learning manipulation patterns with double passes. Similar to how there exist more than 27 Ambled patterns, there should also be more than 6 "Mini Ambleds". Does anyone want to find them all? :)
Manège à cinq
Manège à cinq is a version of Manège à trois with 2 extra manipulators.
More Take-Outs in 4-handed siteswaps
978-about, 975-about (holy grail about), tips and dreams 5 years ago Nicki wrote an excellent article summarising the progress which had been made on take-outs in 4-handed siteswaps: http://passing.zone/take-outs-in-4-handed-siteswaps/ There was some exciting progress made at the 2024 EJC, so I thought it was time for an update! At Passout 2018/2019 in Krelingen Christian from Pittsburgh brought the idea of doing take-outs in a 4-handed siteswap and workshopped 726-about, "What's that about?" and "Manège à trois" (786-about), which I really enjoyed. Christian also has a page summarising all the different takeouts in 4-handed siteswaps: https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~ckaestne/takeouts.html
9 Club Roundabout
9 Club Roundabout is the classic pattern Roundabout with 2 clubs added. The base pattern is 8 club 2 count on doubles. It was first juggled for a two rounds by Lukas, Adrian and Cameron at a juggling club in London but they didn't film it. At the 2023 EJC they finally got two rounds on film. The pattern was first proposed by Cameron. There is a trick in 8 club 2 count on doubles where you throw a right handed quad self and your partner responds with a right handed single self. Cameron realised you could use this to
Holy Grail About
Holy Grail About is a takeout pattern based on the 4-handed siteswap 975, also known as Holy Grail. It was first juggled for a whole round at the 2024 EJC by Lukas, Adrian and Cameron. According to Nicki's article on takeout patterns in 4-handed siteswaps Christian predicted that a round of Holy Grail About would be thrown before the end of 2019, but it took until 2024! After achieving a round Adrian, Lukas and Cameron decided this was they hardest takeout pattern they have done yet (and also the best crowd reaction to getting a round of a pattern!)
Wiebke’s Waltz
Wiebke's Waltz is a Phoenician Waltz inspired take out pattern on a walking pps feed (the same base pattern as zippy) It was developed and presented at the 2023 coastless con along with variants in the "wedding waltz" family. In the pattern, the carry and steal of the subsequent substitution are replaced with a 'clink', to toast the Happy couple. This is followed by a phoenetitian waltz turn for another substitute, and a phoenetitian waltz style intercept in preparation for the next clink.
Super Lazy 966-About
The "Lazy" way to Siteswap-Abouts is a great adaptation to jugglers who can't or won't run around. 966-About with 5 jugglers is about as lazy as you can get!
6-handed: aa799
6-handed siteswaps - aa799 is another one that is not very easy but quite nice
Mayday Zap
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXSHpPcaVTU Mayday zap is a 6-handed siteswap (global siteswap: a37979999) for 3 people and 8 clubs. Juggled by John, Katia and Leo on a rainy day in Oslo, July 2023, near Mayday bar :)
Five count Popcornabout
Five count popcorn about it a three person manipulator pattern based on, umm, five count popcorn! This pattern was first juggled by Lukas, Adrian and Cameron at EJC 2022 and then forgotten about for over a year.
Fallen Angels
Fallen Angels is a manipulator pattern where the manipulator is doing left handed Champi and the jugglers are juggling a three count vs pass pass self walking feed. It was first juggled at the 2024 BJC by Jon, Ed, Katie and Cameron. The base pattern was figured out by Katie, Ed and Cameron.
Phoenician Quickstep
Phoenician Quickstep is a variation on Phoenician Waltz with an extra club! This pattern was first juggled by Helene, Adrian and Cameron at BJC 2024
Grosses Chaos
https://vimeo.com/902881009 Just a period 9 siteswap with 7 clubs. What seems to be a quite ordered siteswap when you look at the global notation becomes really chaotic when remembering what you have to do - welcome to the Great Chaos :-)

Mini-Scrambleds
Mini-scrambleds is a family of 6 manipulation patterns founded by jugglers in Enschede in 2022. They are related to the scrambled series by Aiden Burns. You can find a notation and explanation in a more theoretical and more practical version. The theory is fun but by no means required to be able to juggle the pattern. List of the 6 Mini-Scrambled Patterns: cA iA (donkey)cC iB (back-up)cB iC (tosti / swiss knife) iA cC (sunny side up)iB cB (ebay)iC cA (mini V) Theory: The Mini-scrambleds are a result of the experiment to simplify the scrambleds.

Göttinger Opernball
Göttinger Opernball is a variation on Phoenician Waltz with 2 extra manipulators! This pattern is invented in Göttingen.
Chippy-Zippy
https://vimeo.com/875184799 Chippy-Zippy is a combination of two existing patterns. Zippy (invented by Dr. Ed) and Chippy (the Zippy variation with a chop). Because both manipulators manipulate on their own beats it works pretty good together. The base pattern, a 9 club PPS runaround stays the same as in Zippy and Chippy.
Ambled Feedie Wechsel Dich
https://vimeo.com/862639825 "Feedy wechsel dich" is a Scrambled V variation that was invented due to a leg injury. Now that we were developing "lazy" patterns for jugglers who won't or can't walk, we improved on it - by adding a club.
Killer Bunny About
https://vimeo.com/858393354 In every manipulation pattern, an intercept must always be followed by a carry. Or... must it? Killer Bunny About is a lab-grown pattern that was designed specifically to answer this question that had baffled passing nerds for centuries. If you want to know the answer, go ahead and juggle the pattern (or simply watch the video). The answer might surprise you!
Lazy 567-About
https://vimeo.com/860149735 The "Lazy" way to Siteswap-Abouts is a great adaptation to jugglers who can't or won't run around. 567-About is nice and easy even without a lazy juggler - and it's still nice and easy with a lazy juggler!!!
Lazy 96677-About
https://vimeo.com/849214892 The "Lazy" way to Siteswap-Abouts is a great adaptation to jugglers who can't or won't run around. And here's for you, finally an easy siteswap to do the lazy way! As the 9 is being carried, the Runners only do 2-count and then have lots (zip-zip-zip) of time to to the carry.
Lazy 972-About
https://vimeo.com/849203816 The "Lazy" way to Siteswap-Abouts is a great adaptation to jugglers who can't or won't run around. Plus, it's a nice way to invite a 4th person into your "-About". It's similar to going "on socks" but 1 position stays at their place all the time. By the way, we should mention that the juggling is most advanced in the "Lazy" position.
Lazy 97892-About
https://vimeo.com/849194484 The "Lazy" way to Siteswap-Abouts is a great adaptation to jugglers who can't or won't run around. Plus, it's a nice way to invite a 4th person into your "-About".

Catch the Carrot
https://vimeo.com/825530680 ‘Catch the carrot’ is an easy pattern with a short sequence, which makes it very beginner friendly.It is a three-person manipulation pattern based on a Jim's 3-count. If you are not familiar with the take out element 'The Pop', you can learn it here as preparation for the pattern:https://passing.zone/the-pop/
Dumb Ways to Die
‘Dumb ways to die’ is a new 4 person manipulator pattern invented by Ed that is based on the civil war feed. Watch out for some dangerous passes throughout the pattern.

Shakshuka – Dancing
https://vimeo.com/785192390 Shakshuka is a very tasty Israeli breakfast dish - and a very tasty new base feed for 4 person manipulator patterns.
Ambled Vegemite Toast
Does anyone really like vegemite toast? I only like the ambled version with zero calories!
Feedy Wechsel dich
https://vimeo.com/732116496 2-count feed manipulation pattern with a stationary feeder
2p 1 3p 2 “Benni”
This siteswap has long been around - but now we finally took a nice video in the Bodensee
2p 1 variations with balls, clubs and penguins
2p 1 is one of the most basic and simple siteswaps - so it's time to fool around!
2p 1 1 2 “Michel”
Michel was asking for a drinking pattern that could be passed with the pandemic still running strong - to each their own bottle now!
3-handed siteswaps
3-handed siteswaps are generated mostly the same way as 4-handed ones - just 1 hand always has a "0". As 0 is an empty hand in siteswap, the hand with always 0 won't do anything in the pattern. At the Israeli juggling convention in 2022, we had a very sad reason to develop the idea of 3-handed siteswaps into a workshop. On the first day, just before the first passing workshop, Ofek hurt his right shoulder so severely he had to carry his arm in a sling for several weeks to come. There are many more possible 3-handed patterns -
Easy 3 Clubs Warmup (1.5p)
https://vimeo.com/706705686 A super easy warmup for beginner (club) jugglers who want to feel out clubs. No juggling skills required!
Crossed 3V
https://vimeo.com/662418015 Yes, it is possible to combine crossed scrambleds. And it's much more fun because you do all the parts of the pattern whilst the four-person patterns are a bit one-sided. Here you can see the combination of crossed V and crossed 3. If you want to make it easier, you can go in the other direction instead of running around the feeder. As in all the crossed scrambleds there is this one extra self to make the pattern ambidextrous.
Gare du Zap^2
https://vimeo.com/662408014 Gare du Zap is the 6-handed siteswap a8999 (global), where you locally throw "pass self zap self self". The pass (3.3 P) should be in the air a little bit longer than a self, the zap is just a little bit faster that a self (2.7 P).
Crossed 3
https://vimeo.com/689725114 Jenny had the idea of a new twist on the classic Scrambled V patterns: The juggler walking over to change the feeder now walks through the pattern to the other side, instead of around the outside. In other words, B walks to stand by A's right, not to A's left.
Pi-nician Waltz
https://vimeo.com/662424064 A very fun variation of Phoenician Waltz. See for yourself how it works.
Der eilige Wanderwaschbär (The hasting hiking racoon)
https://vimeo.com/662391763 On the passing Con in Göttingen, Lisa showed us a nice pattern from Austria (from Wolfgang Schebeczek). The pattern comes with the nice twist of throwing two clubs simultaneously, while the rest of the pattern stays asynchronous. The walking pattern follows the standard counterclockwise change.
Shorty a.k.a. 796686867-about a.k.a. Quickie
https://vimeo.com/638454827 Download takeout notation A new takeout pattern based on a period 9 base pattern with 7 clubs. I designed the base pattern specifically for Shorty so we could have an ambidextrous manipulator pattern that is hard to juggle but easy to remember.
BrunEd
https://vimeo.com/637958003 BrunEd is an ambidextrous 4-person manipulator pattern with five manipulation actions.It is based on the idea of MinuEd, a three-person manipulation pattern based on Pass Pass Self, which was invented by Ed Clark back in 2015. The base pattern is Brunos Nightmare in Pass Pass Self.
Kennedy – Helicopter version
https://vimeo.com/609114575 Not the newest, but still a nice Pattern for 4 jugglers. :)It's called Kennedy and there are two versions available. They are similar but some actions take part at different time. This is the "Helicopter" version where the manipulator rotates while handing over a club to the other manipulator.We couldn't find a video of this variant somwhere online. So we filmed this one. We had a lot of fun filming it. :)
Gare du Zap
https://vimeo.com/569268287 Sorry Barbara. I simply forgot to post it on passing.zone. So for all others. This is already a little bit older recorded in spring 2021.
Why Not About
https://vimeo.com/589571232 Like other about-patterns, WhyNot About has 12 starting positions: 3 persons x 2 positions (straight and cross passes) x 2 sides on which the manipulator can start (left or right of B). With a period of 15 beats between the manipulator changes, a full round takes 180 beats (and 42 seconds) before all jugglers have again reached their starting position.
Why Not Zaps?! (85566)
https://vimeo.com/569266508 Another "little" 4-handed siteswap passing with Zaps. Great for warming up, super nice outdoors pattern, even with windy conditions.
Heffalot (8882225)
https://vimeo.com/567139083 We survived the first year of the pandemic, we are healthy, we are allowed to have a super tiny little juggling convention and we can still pass.
966-about-on-socks
https://vimeo.com/512045034 966-about-on-socks is a 4-person passing pattern with 9 clubs, where every juggler should be able to pass 7 clubs in 3-count with double passes.
Halt mal kurz
https://player.vimeo.com/video/453401078
Ambled Postmen
https://player.vimeo.com/video/484590383 Finally, the post has arrived! Initially, we tried several ways of hand-delivering the carried club to B, but then decided that the timing is a little too tight. Instead, we opted for air-mail, which gives the manipulator just enough time to turn and catch the chop from A.
Crossed V
https://vimeo.com/476646169 Download notation Jenny had the idea of a new twist on the classic Scrambled V patterns: The juggler walking over to change the feeder now walks through the pattern to the other side, instead of around the outside. In other words, B walks to stand by A's right, not to A's left.
Ambled Combination Ivy-Maria
https://vimeo.com/453754470
Reverse Roundabout
https://vimeo.com/453450463 Ronja had the amazing idea of taking the classic 4-count Roundabout, but juggling it backwards in time! We attempted various options to make this work in our bland, forward-time universe, and settled on this one.
“Why Not” Triangle
https://vimeo.com/453086875 Ever been in a fix when 3 people wanted to pass "WhyNot"?
Clean your Clubs!
https://vimeo.com/452210531 Playing around with the "Ice Cream Factory" that is "Ivy" on "V", we noticed a "magic club" that is never thrown. Usually that means we´ll get the beer out, soon... Well, there being a pandemic on the go, we decided to not break all rules and drink from a single bottle but to rather clean our clubs before handing them to the next person. Enjoy!
Ambled Anna Maria
https://vimeo.com/451936158 Scrambled Anna-Maria has always been special to me as I first juggled this pattern with an "old" friend and we named it for her ill daughter, Anna-Maria (sBiAcB). Now, we tried one of the possible ambled versions, with the number 9.4 in Lucas' list.
756-About Record
https://vimeo.com/424715124
MinuEd with Tricks
https://vimeo.com/403418825 We added some tricks to one of Ed's first ambidextrous manipulation patterns: MinuEd.
Chopsticks mit Doppelgänger
https://vimeo.com/400746356
Ambled Wankle engine
https://player.vimeo.com/video/382959378 The ambled project is going one step further! Lukas and Juli tried juggling ambled wankle motor years ago. At that time, we were absolutely unable to get around this problem: the carry to A can only be given as soon as A has a free hand (at least, that´s what we thought) and by that time, the self-substitute on C is supposed to happen - on the same beat but on the other side of the pattern.
Tiddo’s Changeover
https://vimeo.com/382776703 This is one of the newest patterns to Europe (from Canada via the USA). It was taught by Peter from Winconsin at the PassOut 2019 to 2020 in Königswiesen, Austria. We are still debating the notation (so that may change), as the manipulation is quite unusual.
Hijacking in period 3, 5 and 7
In passing, hijacking is where one passer decides to change what pattern they are passing and their actions transitions their partner into a compatible pattern. Collectively these are also known as "programming" because you are programming your partner. Most people use programming and hijacking interchangeably.
Flip Flip Pass Hug (or Kiss) a.k.a. Pärchen-Pattern (2 2 1p 1)
https://vimeo.com/370334749 Another pattern in the "Passing for non-jugglers" workshop. It´s super easy - and super cute.
“Sascha”
https://vimeo.com/365851398 Sascha was a very nice surprise at ejc. He showed up at the "Passing & Drinking" Workshop and immediately asked whether we were interested to try a pattern. He had seen and memorized the pattern from the youtube video "Prechac with my Friends" by Danielfausto, but lacked partners to try it with.

Take-Outs in 4-handed siteswaps
756-about, 777-about, 972-about, 978-about At the last Passout in Krelingen Christian from Pittsburgh brought the idea of doing take-outs in a 4-handed siteswap and workshoped 726-about, "What's that about?" and "Manège à trois" (786-about), which I really enjoyed.
Dust Devil in 3-count
https://player.vimeo.com/video/351151864 Dust Devil is a very nice walking pattern which was introduced to the passout mailing list in May 2018 by Dave and Athena Davis.

Champi mit Doppelganger
https://player.vimeo.com/video/365997513 "Doppelganger" patterns are the rage right now: A second manipulator is added to a 3 juggler pattern. The second manipultor does not "follow" the first, but is synchronized with them. They do the same manipulation on the same hand at the same time, to different passers.

Ambled Saibca
Lukas was just a tiny bit late to be in this video... Anyway, the backflips are nice and they make the timing easy. Before juggling the full pattern, team up with your "backflip bro" and practise them!
Ambled Gentle Romble
https://player.vimeo.com/video/299969414
A Walk in the Pattern
https://player.vimeo.com/video/299163430 A walk in the pattern is a combination of scrambled sAiBcA and B (iBcBsA). This is a combination that was deemed "impossible" because both manipulators interact with B on beat 2 and with A on beat 3.
966777777 “Double BANANA”
https://vimeo.com/299103293 A rather difficult but rather nice 7 club siteswap.
7786786786
https://youtu.be/Iba-A3dES0g A nice synchronous 7 club passing pattern.
Tadah pickup
A trick based on the "hourglass" passing formation with 6 people. In this version we start with 3 clubs each and pick up 4 clubs during the pattern before finishing with a collect.

https://vimeo.com/290763451 This pattern was a part of the "Improving your zaps" workshop by Brook & Nicki. It is quite easy but more fun than 5 zaps 1-count...The zap is magic. Unfortunately we took only super beautiful red clubs to the beach, though.
Colored passing
A nice and funny "pattern". Its a bit more like a concentration game ;)
Passing by colors
https://youtu.be/dqWX3FgMk1A Simons and My favourite warm up passing pattern. For us its meditative to juggle it. :) It trains both hands, your concentration, your periphial view and you will learn to know which club is in which hand. But it is still simple and there is not much to explain.
J, C and a Crown
https://player.vimeo.com/video/288054381 James and Cameron taught a very nice 7 club "righty lefty" passing workshop at Berlin convention 2018. I especially enjoyed their way of marking the starting juggler with a crown in their pattern notation.
Mini “Hoschy”
https://vimeo.com/288053829 Another nice mini. Juli and I invented this variation on a sunny day at the Goldstrand beach in Düsseldorf.
3 1 1p 2 3p “Floyd” – drinking
https://vimeo.com/313636703 Don't get confused by the active 2. It is technically a 3 1 1p 2 3p variation.
Phoenician – Roundabout
https://vimeo.com/725634023 Well. We felt we didn´t use our brains enough, so we combined pass pass self takeout "Phoenician Waltz" with 4-count Roundabout. Martin´s idea, Swisstian loves it and how did I get there???
3p 1 1 2 3 2p “Stella”
https://vimeo.com/689814023 This is one tough Mini! Stella and Juli learned the siteswap at the 2013 ejc in Toulouse in the "Minis"-workshop by Tine and Doreen. We couldn´t juggle it, of course. So we practised. And practised. And practised more. And then some. Stella went to Madagaskar. She came back. We practised. Stella went to Edinburgh. She came back - we did it! Finally! Yay!
I Didn´t See It Coming – with Backflips
A "quick and dirty" run of I Didn´t See It Coming just to test the backflips. They are great! First, they are a new kind of throw and second, they make the timing much easier as they send the next DustDevil on his way sooner than a backdrop does. Thanks to Cameron and Lars for juggling with me at 1 in the morning!
Easy ball multiplex passing
https://vimeo.com/689808161 With balls, those patterns are super easy - they can be juggled by non-jugglers, even.

Scrambled 3V on doublesocks

4-count Roundabout
https://vimeo.com/689817645 On this years Aichtal Juggling Convention "Juggling Resort" Juli, Simon and I decided to give a Roundabout Workshop. We thought a lot of jugglers there would like this workshop.
Ambled 3
Scrambled 3 with an extra club. Note that when C would do L:4x, R:2, R:4p in other ambled patterns to switch sides, here the necessity to do two right hands in a row is solved differently L:3, R:5px, R:2. The pass is substituted, but it is a 5px which is why the manipulator has it for so long that they have to do a self and intercept before they deliver the 5px.
Holy Grail (975)
Holy Grail is probably the most hard well-known 7 club passing pattern (correct me if you know a harder one)! There are no selves, and the three passes are at three different heights (singlepass, doublepass, zap), so the timing is most important. Two or more clubs that go to the same receiving hand one after the other are called "stacks". For stacks, it is always important the clubs are close to each other in space but well (and evenly) separated in time. The name "Holy Grail" comes by way of the States: Rhonda and Will were practising 975 a lot,
Dolby 7.1
https://vimeo.com/689822453 Dolby 7.1 is the latest in the series of patterns that have manipulation similar to the classic Dolby Söround. In this new pattern, we add a club to the Dolby 5.1 pattern, first shown in the video of the 9th Secret German Convention. Dolby 5.1, Dolby 5.2 and Dolby 7.1 were all composed together as a set by Ed Clark.
Ambled Toast
https://vimeo.com/689818057 Ambled Toast is the second ambled pattern around, after Ambled V, of course. Ambled Patterns are derived from the Scrambled series by adding 1 additional club. The runaround consequently becomes a 10 club 2-count runaround.
Dolby 5.1 mit Einzel- und Doppelgänger
https://vimeo.com/689823738 Dolby 5.1 is a new one of Ed´s. As his shoulder damage prevents him from doing lots of right-handed singel passes, he invented a beginner´s pattern on 5-count: Dolby 5.1! Counting to 5 needs getting used to, but otherwise it´s great: ambidextrous and still not at all hard. The pattern Dolby 5.1 uses the take out element 'The Pop'. If you are not familiar with this you can learn it here as preparation for the pattern:https://passing.zone/the-pop/
Nicki´s 3-count Roundabout
Nicki invented this pattern several years ago and taught it around Göttingen. Now, as ambidextrous manipulations are becoming "en vogue", he decided to advertise this one. It´s nice!
Zippy_1
https://vimeo.com/689824389 As Zippy is such a big hit (and we love to juggle it), we thought to imitate Aidan and find additional patterns of a zippy series. Aidan found 27 Scrambled V variations by permutating the possible actions in a 9 club 2-count runaround. As the resulting Scrambled V variations have only 3 beats, 3 positions to manipulate (A,B & C) and 3 manipulations (substitute, intercept & carry), this stands to reason.
Scrambled V 1.7 “Chopped Up V”
This one comes by way of Hoschy from RheinErftJuggling and shows an quite easy, first column scrambled V (1 2 3 cB sA iC). Easy it is because relabeling and manipulator change happen at the same time (beat 3), so it´s easy on the brain. You can see other strategies to make it easier on the video, too. For example you can collect your clubs for walking over and you can hand back the substituted pass to A, saving time. The one little thing to observe is: During the substitute, please stand between C and A, out of the way

Mission Impossible Workshop
"Takeouts or stealing patterns have been around for a long time already and are still very popular. Yet, working with even newly created takeout patterns feels like doing the same fourcount based patterns over and over again. We propose to break this stagnation by leveraging Prechac based patterns and make both passers and manipulators do passing actions that combine the fun of takeout- and Prechac-patterns." Looking forward to running this as Pass-Out! Best, FLO, DJochen, JJochen, Tine Read the full description here. Mission Impossible Passing (overlay takeout) <-- Please go to JTV for Flash/HD/Download
Y you follow me – world record
A pattern created in 2013 by Ed Clark, using Aidan notation.The base pattern is a 4 juggler static Y passed in 4-count. B is at the back (or foot) of the Y, D in the middle of the Y, A on the left of the Y (from the point of view of D and B) and C on the right. There are 2 manipulators in this pattern who are dependent, as clubs are taken by one manipulator and replaced by the other.

cAsBiA on Anna-Maria
I´m getting closer to my goal of having juggled all 27 scrambled variations in time for next year´s EJC. Actually, I juggled more than half of them, already, and I´m very motivated for the others - so if you want to learn a new scrambled, just chat to me...Now, people are distracting me with their wish to combine scrambleds in previously unknown ways...challenge accepted! Here we combined #1.2 cAsBiA with #3.1, which we named "Anna-Maria" in honor of Annchen´s and Berengar´s daughter.
STAR – you follow me?!
https://vimeo.com/1020761946?share=copy Another new pattern - don´t know where it comes from, actually. It´s not Ed´s, this time, so I don´t have the notation either. The base pattern is a 4 person shooting star in 4count and with only 10 clubs. Before runnig, each juggler passes until having only 1 (not 2) clubs left, then runs halfway to receice a second club and runs into the gap to receive the third club he needs to start passing 4 count again. Into this base pattern are added 2 persons with each 2 clubs, each doing a roundabout on jugglers that are

55244 (PSPSS CK#1)
Martin and me got a little crazy at the Super Juggling convention and are now planning to juggle and tape some patterns from Christian Kästner´s compatible siteswaps list. As far as we can, anyway. Here´s our first - an easy 4 club one to practise zaps and flips. And yes, that´s Martin at the guitar. [embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jxjz9GUyto[/embedyt]
MinuEd
https://vimeo.com/689957657 MinuEd is a manipulation with changeover in PassPassSelf Passing. It was developed by Ed Clark quite recently and now, the race is on to get 2 full rounds on video. The closest call so far is from the states and you can watch them here. Caution, they use glittery pink fat ....things.
ChopDolby
https://vimeo.com/689959194 For Christian it was absolutely clear he just had to juggle this pattern. I was sure against it as it is a right-left pattern and requires left handed ChopAbout (which I thought would be super hard).Well, finally he convinced me to try and few hours of practice later, we took this video of a full round of ChopDolby. Next time, we should not go for super hard, we should go for impossible...
SM w/ Backdrop, Backcatch & Changeover (a.k.a. Batman)
https://player.vimeo.com/video/384600429 Originally from the Biowup crew, we tried this combination of a Standard Manipulator and Changeover with a Backdrop and a Backcatch first at the ejc and finally managed to do it on the first night of PassOut. It´s a fun pattern to do and fancy to watch...

Stern mit Loch und Saufen oder auch Shoting Star
https://vimeo.com/313639405 For Christmas, the very first JIU crew got together again and we finally did that one video I was looking forward to for about a year: the five point star with 4 people, a vacant space to run into and a table of shot glasses with rum in the middle. The German name is derived from the non-drinking pattern name "Stern mit Loch und Laufen" and the English name comes from the original "shooting star". Cheers and Enjoy!

RUM BEE
https://vimeo.com/690074867 This pattern is the scrambled variation known as "B". In Britain, it´s also known as the "Honey Bee" and the counting goes "Sun, rain, flowers" instead of "1,2,3". During the carry you´d call "honey" and the bee follows the carry, buzzing. Well, the little bee got tired of all that "sun, rain and flowers" stuff - and as all clubs in the scrambleds are magic, at least here the carry can easily be a bottle and it is always neat if a juggler runs after a bottle, right? So, the little bee is now a cheerful alcoholic drinking to

https://vimeo.com/690077287 ChopAbout is a manipulation based on 4-count. In the base version in this video, the manipulator turns 2.5times in the middle - 4.5 rotations are possible...
La vache qui rit
https://vimeo.com/690077335 La vache qui rit is a pattern by Turtur. It´s asymmetric and still both-handed. The clubs of each color always do the same. It´s fun and not too hard to juggle, provided none of the passers get stressed and speed up.

‘Minis’ Workshop EJC Millstreet 2014
At the EJC 2014 in Millstreet, Ireland, Anni and Tine gave a very nice workshop for 'Minis'. There is a quite easy 4 club pattern for 2 people, 3p 2 2p 1. The second one is a much harder 5 club pattern for 2 people, 3p 1 2 4. For that one, I included 2 exercises in the video.
6 Clubs Shamrock
https://vimeo.com/690078348 The most easy shamrock variations use only 5 clubs - or rather 4 clubs and a bottle ;-) This one has 6 clubs but is till fairly easy. Do I need to say it´s a drinking pattern, as well?
