Zapnips (Zaps on Parsnips) Family

"Zapnips" are patterns based on the Selfless Passing series and specifically based on Parsnip, but some of the passes are changed to a kind of "early zap".

All the patterns based on Parsnip in this way stay compatible with Parsnip.

--> One side can throw Parsnip, the other side can throw one of these. You can also change between all of these patterns (and Parsnip) while juggling.

Difficulty

With the patterns I included so far:

• "technical" difficulty: easy to medium
• "lyrics" difficulty: medium to hard (5 different things on a period 5 pattern in one case)

Patterns based on Parsnip (5 clubs)

The local base pattern sequence of Parsnip for a juggler is PPzPz (Pass, Pass, zip, Pass, zip).

Every combination "pass, zip" can be switched to become "Flip, Zap", leading to these three seqences:

(Flips are thrown as flats in the animation shown here, but are supposed to be [[flip]s, this will be fixed at some point in the future. Passist.org shows flips instead)

• PFZPz - 77425

A 1|2: P F Z P z
B 1|1:  P z P F Z

P=pass ; z=zip ; Z=Zap ; F=full Flip;

Long form:

A 1|2: Pass  Flip  Zap  Pass  zip
B 1|1:    Pass  zip  Pass  Flip Zap

We can also go one step further on the "PPz" part, transforming both Passes into Zaps, the zip becomes a Self.

• SZZPz - 56752

A starts with a Zap (although A only has 2 clubs), B follows a bit later with a pass:

A 1|1: Z Z P z S
B 1|2:  P z S Z Z

P=pass ; z=zip ; Z=Zap ; F=full Flip; S=Self

And this can of course be combined with Flip-Zap on the ramaining Pass-Zip:

• SZZFZ - 55564

A 1|1: Z Z F Z S
B 1|2:  F Z S Z Z

P=pass ; z=zip ; Z=Zap ; F=full Flip; S=Self
