7 balls, #endupatt, 9 balls flashing, #StagesOfLearning, 5 ball tricks, 3 heavy balls, 5 heavy balls, 8 balls, #new, 185 minutes

[remembered, no notes taken:]
3b 200gr, freestyle, misc - ~15 min.
5 heavy balls, 200 gr casc - ~5 min.
9b flashing - ~35 min.   Several times 7 gathers.   Upto 5 rethrows.   #SoL - Launching through a ``(vertical) strip of (higher and higher) crossing points´´ for my ladder launch might give nicer patterns and do less collisionbound launches. I can aim lower and needn't bother about what happens high up in the top, but can rely on throws coming well .. all provided I got into whole launches well and do that aiming accurately.
8b wimpy - ~5 min.   Two times six pairs thrown.   Slowly getting back to that feeling of it being simple, that I had when first trying the 8b-wimpy and got the flash in one the first attempts ( but completely lost that and got entangled into focussing other stuff like width, hand's position, angles thrown ). I have to just throw from near the middle up, aiming rather narrow on height, near the body and in the front plane. I can do somewhat lower for better control, less accurate being good enough then.
5b 52567 - ~20 min.   A few full fifth, two sixth and one seventh side to drop(s). Best full caught was 20 gathers clean.
7b casc - ~105 min.   49, 47, 75 (blundered on going to collect), 65, 57, and a few more (51(?), 49(?), .. ? ) throws runs longer than 40 th.   I can partly, in good phases, rely on good launches and on getting right into keeping the top rollin', soas I can launch with the intention of enduring like I would with 5 balls. I'm then going for like 12 sets of 8 throws = ~100 catches. ( But there's still just as many as ever less good phases where I don't get that simple ``cascady spirit´´, not a clean pattern launched, early fails even, liable to do unwristy with effort and-or too far ahead, and forcing too much. )   [ dailyLongestRun7b: 75 ]

In between did one, two or a few attempts on   [ #new ] 5b splits crosshand overhead (two throws to collapse).   7b all up 180° (one couldn't tell what I tried there).   7b launch: quadplex -- triplex -- synch duplexes ([4x6x],[4x6x]) (get these to clean collect every once in a while). Also regularly few times per stint doing launch: 1 up kicked -- split triplex -- split triplex to collect .. lately also into two to four cascade throws.   7b single round °27[57]°.

Total practice time: 185 minutes
