On this years Aichtal Juggling Convention “Juggling Resort” Juli, Simon and I decided to give a Roundabout Workshop. We thought a lot of jugglers there would like this workshop.

Ambled 3
Scrambled 3 with an extra club. Note that when C would do L:4x, R:2, R:4p in other ambled patterns to switch sides, here the necessity to do two right hands in a row is solved differently L:3, R:5px, R:2. The pass is substituted, but it is a 5px which is why the manipulator has it for so long that they have to do a self and intercept before they deliver the 5px.
Dolby 7.1
Dolby 7.1 is the latest in the series of patterns that have manipulation similar to the classic Dolby Söround. In this new pattern, we add a club to the Dolby 5.1 pattern, first shown in the video of the 9th Secret German Convention. Dolby 5.1, Dolby 5.2 and Dolby 7.1 were all composed together as a set by Ed Clark.
Ambled Toast
Ambled Toast is the second ambled pattern around, after Ambled V, of course. Ambled Patterns are derived from the Scrambled series by adding 1 additional club. The runaround consequently becomes a 10 club 2-count runaround.
Dolby 5.1 mit Einzel- und Doppelgänger
Dolby 5.1 is a new one of Ed´s. As his shoulder damage prevents him from doing lots of right-handed singel passes, he invented a beginner´s pattern on 5-count: Dolby 5.1! Counting to 5 needs getting used to, but otherwise it´s great: ambidextrous and still not at all hard.
Nicki´s 3-count Roundabout
Nicki invented this pattern several years ago and taught it around Göttingen. Now, as ambidextrous manipulations are becoming “en vogue”, he decided to advertise this one. It´s nice!
Zippy_1
As Zippy is such a big hit (and we love to juggle it), we thought to imitate Aidan and find additional patterns of a zippy series. Aidan found 27 Scrambled V variations by permutating the possible actions in a 9 club 2-count runaround. As the resulting Scrambled V variations have only 3 beats, 3 positions to manipulate (A,B & C) and 3 manipulations (substitute, intercept & carry), this stands to reason.
