Dumb Ways to Die – for Dummies

23rd November 2025 by Rene

‘Dumb ways to die’ is a 4 person manipulator pattern invented by Ed that is based on the civil war feed. We applied the idea of the manipulation to a 2-count feed. This led to a quite simple pattern (´for Dummies´). It could be considered to be easier than the ´Scrambled V´.

Chippy-Zippy

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.

“Sascha”

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.
