Juggle together

‘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 🙂
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.
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.
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.
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!
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.
