Columns (juggling)
Columns,also known as One-up Two-up, is a juggling trick where the balls are thrown upwards without any sideways motion. The simplest version involves having three balls, with two going up simultaneously on either side, followed by one going up in the middle. One way to accomplish this is to juggle 2 balls in one hand and one ball in the other, so one hand has to move faster and further than in a regular pattern, whilst the other remains almost stationary. The hand juggling the center ball can alternate with each repeat to make the pattern symmetric.
