This siteswap has long been around – but now we finally took a nice video in the Bodensee

“Benni” is a super easy siteswap variation as the 3p is the only club that is really thrown. Active 2s on the outside hand make for a nice splashy cooling system…

Don’t get confused by the active 2. It is technically a 3 1 1p 2 3p variation.

For shamrock, there are several ways to make it easier: full passes instead of zaps slow everything down. Likewise, 3 (or 5) selves slow the pattern and give more time to think. Jugglers who cannot do a self from their left hand may zip the club into their right hand before the 3rd pass arrives and then just start pass-pass-pass.

The start? Lift 2p at the same time as throwing the 4. Then drop 2p. It is the responsibility of the 1p passer to hit the open hand under the 4 at the correct space and time! If you feel there is not enough time, try a higher 4…
