4-count vs doublepass, self, zip, self - 96672666
Pre-requisite
Sibling Pattern
This is the sibling pattern to 5-count vs doublepass, self, zip, self - 9667266666. The difference between the patterns is, which side has only selfs between passes and which has a self-zip in the sequence.
Pattern Description
This is the 4-count version of 5-count vs doublepass, self, zip, self - 9667266666.
Main advantage is that 4-count is historically one of the most-juggled patterns known by everyone. Disadvantage is that it has passes only from one hand - which might be an advantage if you are mainly trying to prepare for a 7-club 2-count (doubles).
Straight passes (both sides): A starts with a double pass, B starts a bit later with a self from the left hand and a pass and then has what seems like a regular 4-count.
A starts with two clubs in the right hand and one club in the left and begins with a double pass from the right.
B also has 3 clubs and either starts with two clubs in left hand with a self half a beat later or starts with a pass from the right hand 1.5 beats later. In either case, this is the same start for B as in the more difficult 7-club 3-count 966.
A2|1: D S Z S B1|2: S P S S
P = single pass
D = double pass
S = self
Z = zip
Additional Things To Do
- Juggler with single passes can throw early doubles, if the pattern feels comfortable.
- The side with single passes and 4 regular selfs can replace the 3 selfs with 441 (heff, heff, zip) or 531 (triple, self, zip)
- The self-zip can be switched against [[flip]-flip
- The zip can be done behind the back
