We were looking for a pattern for 5 jugglers without much running and as little manipulation as possible. Well, we managed! Ambled Mini V on socks is a very chill “on socks”.
PATTERNS
Videos, notation and explanations of passing patterns.
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)
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? 🙂
6-handed: aa799
6-handed siteswaps - aa799 is another one that is not very easy but quite nice
We managed to juggle this one at aichtal Drop GmbH Convention even though Juli was organizing - we first hated it, then it started working and we got round to kind of liking it.
Mayday Zap
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 🙂
Ambled Feedie Wechsel Dich
“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.
Ambled Vegemite Toast
Does anyone really like vegemite toast? I only like the ambled version with zero calories!
Crossed 3V
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
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
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.
