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 🙂
3 JUGGLERS
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.
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
Killer Bunny About
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!
Catch the Carrot
‘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:

Gare du Zap^2
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).
Der eilige Wanderwaschbär (The hasting hiking racoon)
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.
