A small error in crossing wankle engine led to this beauty:
A (and A’) stays a “lazy” feeder forever while B, C and M change roles and hands continuously.

More Take-Outs in 4-handed siteswaps
978-about, 975-about (holy grail about), tips and dreams
5 years ago Nicki wrote an excellent article summarising the progress which had been made on take-outs in 4-handed siteswaps: https://passing.zone/take-outs-in-4-handed-siteswaps/
There was some exciting progress made at the 2024 EJC, so I thought it was time for an update!
At Passout 2018/2019 in Krelingen Christian from Pittsburgh brought the idea of doing take-outs in a 4-handed siteswap and workshopped 726-about, “What’s that about?” and “Manège à trois” (786-about), which I really enjoyed. Christian also has a page summarising all the different takeouts in 4-handed siteswaps: https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~ckaestne/takeouts.html
Super Lazy 966-About
The “Lazy” way to Siteswap-Abouts is a great adaptation to jugglers who can’t or won’t run around.
966-About with 5 jugglers is about as lazy as you can get!
Lazy 567-About
The “Lazy” way to Siteswap-Abouts is a great adaptation to jugglers who can’t or won’t run around.
567-About is nice and easy even without a lazy juggler – and it’s still nice and easy with a lazy juggler!!!
Lazy 96677-About
The “Lazy” way to Siteswap-Abouts is a great adaptation to jugglers who can’t or won’t run around.
And here’s for you, finally an easy siteswap to do the lazy way! As the 9 is being carried, the Runners only do 2-count and then have lots (zip-zip-zip) of time to to the carry.
Lazy 972-About
The “Lazy” way to Siteswap-Abouts is a great adaptation to jugglers who can’t or won’t run around.
Plus, it’s a nice way to invite a 4th person into your “-About”. It’s similar to going “on socks” but 1 position stays at their place all the time. By the way, we should mention that the juggling is most advanced in the “Lazy” position.
