4-count

From jugglingpatterns

This pattern is part of the Selfs and Passes series.

Patterns to do before this one

4-count

This pattern is period 4, so all passes only happen from the right hand (or only from the left hand).

half-synchronous Siteswap: <3p|3|3|3, 3p|3|3|3>

In two lines, one for each juggler:

A 1|2:  3p  3   3   3  
B 1|2:  3p  3   3   3  

Sequence: A and B start at the same time and both throw straight passes:

P=pass

S=self

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

Additional Things to Do

As this (and the other n-count patterns) has been a very common pattern for a long time, it has accumulated many tricks to do.

Siteswap changes on your side

This is right more a list for me, what patterns to describe more fully.

All of the following changes do not change the pattern of the other juggler, but happen solely on your side:

As the pattern siteswap is 3p333, any 33 can be swapped for 42

--> 2334p, 3p423, 3p342, 42p33,

as well as twice: 2424p, 2p424

and most 333 can be swapped to 441 (the 1 shouldnt become a pass)

--> 4134p, 3p441, 1344p

or against 531

--> 3135p, 3p531, 3p135

Changes that change the partners pattern:

  • late double 4p333 (partner has to react with the "2" as a hold by not throwing)
  • 444 - go into juggling 4-clubs until you continue by throwing a pass


Non-Siteswap Changes

  • all kinds of tricks like tomahawks
  • make a step after throwing your pass, before catching the other pass. Catch with the right hand. If you do a step on each pass, you are now in a slow 3-count vs the 4-count of the other juggler. The other juggler has to continue throwing straight at the place where passes used to go.
