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.

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”.

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.

Der eilige Wanderwaschbär (The hasting hiking racoon)

If you combine 2 scrambled patterns, you may as well have 2 people “on socks”.

Zippy

18th March 20222nd October 2017 by Juli

Zippy is the new craze of 2017! Invented by Dr. Ed and taught at Passout in Cambourne, it went like fire all over German Conventions. Is it hard? Well…if you are used to ambidextrous manipulations as well as 9 club PPS runaround – no.
