We were inspired to add a manipulator to Techno and came up with four variations! These 8-club patterns were first juggled in Albuquerque, New Mexico by Lana Bolin, Ian Chesser and Omar Ramirez. We named our favorite variant, Techniquerque, after the city of invention itself.
PATTERNS
Videos, notation and explanations of passing patterns.
Der eilige Wanderwaschbär (The hasting hiking racoon)
On the passing Con in Göttingen, Lisa showed us a nice pattern from Austria (from Wolfgang Schebeczek). The pattern comes with the nice twist of throwing two clubs simultaneously, while the rest of the pattern stays asynchronous. The walking pattern follows the standard counterclockwise change.
966-about-on-socks
966-about-on-socks is a 4-person passing pattern with 9 clubs, where every juggler should be able to pass 7 clubs in 3-count with double passes.
Dust Devil in 3-count
Scrambled 3V on doublesocks
If you combine 2 scrambled patterns, you may as well have 2 people “on socks”.
Or: We are 7. Should we split up or can we do something together?
