Juggle together
Videos, notation and explanations of passing patterns.
‘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)”

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 🙂
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 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? 🙂
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.
“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.
