Walking Siteswap Feeds

12th August 2025 by Christian Kaestner

This EJC, I had a lot of fun exploring different walking siteswap feeds and this article tries to share some patterns and some general ideas behind them. In 2015, I learned from Staffan how to add an extra club to Bruno’s Nightmare, where the feeder passes straight doubles to one feedee and crossing doubles to …

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

16th July 2024 by John Zobolas

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 🙂

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.

Sorry Barbara. I simply forgot to post it on passing.zone. So for all others. This is already a little bit older recorded in spring 2021.

Ever been in a fix when 3 people wanted to pass “WhyNot”?

Martin and me got a little crazy at the Super Juggling convention and are now planning to juggle and tape some patterns from Christian Kästner´s compatible siteswaps list. As far as we can, anyway. Here´s our first – an easy 4 club one to practise zaps and flips. And yes, that´s Martin at the guitar. …
