Uff...no..
it's like the 3 staff shower(51) but the third trowh is with 2 staff in a duplex throw.
You start with 4 staff,2 for each hand-->single single,duplex.

then the first single arrive and you throw it,the second one arrive and so you throw then 2staff arrive parallel and it's possible to catch them separated(1 with left,1 with right)so quikly pack it in the right hand a nd throw a duplex.

55duplex,55duplex.

Hope i explined in the right way:)

531!!!!!!
So nice,so hard..
I love it.
But still i don't know if my 531 is right or not because i throw 5 and 3 from the same hand..from the 333 catching one staff than throwing 5(high from outside like as doing a shower throw,then while 5 is in the air the same hand throws 3)
Is that ok?(there should be an attept in the juggling video when it comes out).

But still it's not a clear pattern, most of the times the left hand don't throw good(so next week again train with left hand).
God,buddah,kali and gods in universe why we're not all
ambidextrous ?:)

so you throw the 5 (the high one) and than a 3 with the same hand what is the other hand doing inbetween the 5 and the 3 as i guess you still throw alternate with your left & right hand?
when does the 1 come into that pattern?

we are all ambidextrous, we just realise the potential a bit late in life

opsssssssss my brain it's not working so good....i said 53 form the same hand..but i was wrong..sorry...
i wanted to mean that the entering in the 531 patern is a 5 high throw after a 333 so it's correct that 5(right hand)3(left hand) 1 should the the pause before the 3 land to the right.

Sorry.
Now that it's clear i wont to ask to bastl: do you spin the "1" or just have the staff bloked in the hand ?

Have tryied the 423?that's more difficoult than 531 imho...expecially for the "4"

the "1" is a transfer, in your case from the right to the left hand.

423 is for me much easier, look @ the trainingvideo from antti ...the last figure he plays is a 423

Had a lovely conversation with him at BJC. Might actually meet up with him and pester him for tips Or drag him to the monthly Preston Fire Gatherings to show them how it's done!

was just wondering how is your method to get the damn 4 shower clean

i myself been working on it since a while now but it goes and comes
not consistent enough for performing

been doing sets of 8 catches stop and another set

try to do it 10 times in a row
and fail (sometimes tho)

hi josh
the way im trying with four is to work slowly thru the number of catches,so i worked on a flash for ages then five catches then six,im now plannig to get seven clean as my next mission,
i also go back to three staff continuos flashes repeatedly every time i struggle,
i dont think i will ever try and get more than nine catches,it too hard on the muscles,
im also trying to increase the efficiency of my training,by taking short breaks and analysing where im going wrong,i then try and concentrate on elimintating that fault,this always creates a different fault to eliminate,and so it goes on............................................................

congratulations on flashing five,ive never even managed too throw five,never mind catching five staffs!!!
i am coming to berlin for feurkunst it would be really cool to hook up with you and entheogen somewhere for some training and fun

thanks lol
i did it the one time
lucky shot nothing more i guess

and tim did you try the pattern with 3 when you flash 2
wait a count and then throw the third one the 4th count
it did help me lots

what you mean flashing three consistent thats a preparation for 5 you know that ,or
it,s not really for 4
but might help since its a faster rhythm than the actually 4 staff shower
or am i wrong here

and when is feuerkunst again ??
lets try meeting
since we are not sure if we go again to übereurope

True.I've tryied 4 flash for long time and it was not leading to nothing for long long time because,n my opinion,it's uselss to try the moves if you don0t have clear in mind what THE STAFF has do to (how many roll in the air,woh high..)

Another good things for the 4-5 shower is the "empty" time,like you throw 2 and clap your hands instead on throwing the rest,it' s a good way to have clear(in mind) how high have to throw and how many time you have to prepare the catch.
Like the piruette training for clubs

balst i find that in 531 i do not make any 1...........so the pattern is uncomplete. the 1 for me it's just like a 2
no good.

Crazy jugglers...

I managed to flash a 5 staff trick a few times once. It was like doing a 4 staff fountain but throwing one more staff from the right hand as high as possible and then try to catch everything. Not really beautiful.

And 3 on one hand is possible so skip the 5 and go for a 6 staff fountain.

Crazy jugglers...

Hey!

I'm allready on it! 3 on one hand thing
I can flash it on my right hand and hopefully soon on my left. So a 6 staff fountain flash is soon coming to a cinema near you!

hmm strange, so from halfshower, but here you have to change direction of the 1...if you do it bevore actually transfer it´s a more complicated start than from a kaskade (in my opinion) and if you change direction after the transfer you need to build up a lot of force with the left hand shower throw (5) just out of your arm, not from the speed the staff travels....(exhausting or ?) -or do you not plan to play 531 continiously?
my favorite solution to your idea would be to throw the left hand 5 as a reverse throw in shower

hope you are fine again
what about play?

lol

i mean i can do like nearly always 3 or 4 throws with three
staffs in the right hand
does that mean i also gonna get the 6 staffs soon

ooh dude thats a funny one

you were right bastl i´m a slacker
didn´t even cross my mind to do it continuously
thinking about it makes me agree the cascade is more appropriate to do the pattern continuously

so i do inside 5, out 3, left to right 1
and i came up with sweet variations
i gonna show you one day

and one day we will meet again

well, yes, if you practise the other hand.

i performed three staff juglging for the first time at the bjc. now i have a whole summer to learn new stuff (think i'm going to stick to cascade variations to avoid the shoulder issues), but for a start, i think these patterns will be worked on

4440
441
531 (variation 1s, btb, bth)
64113
63141
423 (loads of 2 variations)
