I think this might be my first juggling-related post here...

I've had lots of fun passing slow vs. fast patterns this month.

As an into: two-count vs. three-count. Alice does two-count, catching only with her left and passing with her right, feeding Bob's hands. There are no hurries, Bob simply does more selves, throwing with alternating hands - but always at Alice's left. It was fun to do, but I like my patterns more symmetric.

Hence: PPS vs PSPSS. The first pass for both jugglers is thrown straight, starting simultaneously, the second pass in a set is diagonal. After the PP, take as much time holding onto that club before throwing the S. Also, make everything floaty, especially the second pass in PPS.

Once you've got that down, switch sides after every (other) set.

I didn't think of these myself. Surely, there are more. Does anyone know some I could try next?

I don't have any odd-count versions, but I have had a lot of fun trying to fit tricks into "4count vs 6count" and "2 count vs 4count" before now.

There's also something which is a mix of 3count and 4count, which repeats on both sides - but I can never think my way through it without doing it and don't have a good enough grasp of the notation to work it out from scratch. Bah! If I was at #BJC2012 I could just juggle it and ask someone else what the hell it is!

I'll see your "Bah! If I was at BJC, I could pass a pattern" and raise you "If I was at #BJC2012, I could pass that pattern with my girlfriend, whom I haven't seen in weeks"... Wrong continent.

How about 1count vs 2count? 2count person alternates singles between hands, and 1count throws doubles to left hand. 2count throws first club after the first double is half way across, like 7club passing.
