All Chipmunk Patterns are 4-handed siteswap passing patterns with 6 beats.

Two jugglers lying on grass with clubs, "Passing Zone 2P 1" text overlay. - Passing Zone

2p 1 is one of the most basic and simple siteswaps – so it’s time to fool around!

3 1 1p 2 3p “Floyd” – drinking

Drop am See Juni 2018
Two people juggling clubs outdoors near a river, possibly related to "Floyd" drinking. - Passing Zone

Don’t get confused by the active 2. It is technically a 3 1 1p 2 3p variation.
At the same time as the 3p and the 1p, 2 active 2’s are thrown. Yes, there is only one “2” in the notation. But…. the beauty of it!

Shamrock – drinking

5 clubs easy Shamrock

Three young men juggling clubs in front of a mirrored building. Juggling clubs easy Shamrock. - Passing Zone

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.

Four people juggling clubs indoors, one with text: "Take: ... quite drunk already. - Passing Zone

For Christmas, the very first JIU crew got together again and we finally did that one video I was looking forward to for about a year: the five point star with 4 people, a vacant space to run into and a table of shot glasses with rum in the middle. The German name is derived from the non-drinking pattern name “Stern mit Loch und Laufen” and the English name comes from the original “shooting star”. Cheers and Enjoy!
