Passing (juggling)

Passing (juggling)

Passing is the act of juggling between more than one person. It is a very social part of juggling and is very impressive to watch. It is possible to pass with any juggling prop, but passing with club is very popular. This is because clubs have a handle, making it easy to catch a club which has been correctly thrown to you, and club passing looks more impressive.

In general, two people face each other a few metres apart, each holding three clubs. On a signal, both start juggling in time with each other. To pass, each replaces a normal throw to themselves directly across to the other person. Both people do this at the same time, for example with their right hand, and then receive the incoming pass with their left hand. From the point of view of their pattern, the incoming pass behaves exactly as if they had thrown it themselves.

Famous quotes containing the word passing:

    Politicians—power itself—are abject because they merely embody the profound contempt people have for their own lives.... One should be grateful to the politicians for accepting the abjectness of power, and ridding others of its burden. This inevitably kills them but they get their revenge by passing onto others the corpse of power.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
