View source for The long zap-zap-zip 56252

← Back to [[Selfs and Zaps]] ←

This pattern has the zap-zap-zip sequence but is two beats longer and is extended by a "zip,self".

As such, it does have a known part, but the bit where you throw a zap after/underneath a self makes it much harder than zap-zap-zip.

Color-coding: the zaps are [[magic]]: use clubs of different color for the zap and that club will only do zaps in this pattern (and in consequence you will also keep the same club for selfs and zips)


== Pre-requisite Patterns ==

* [[zap zap zip]]
* cross-check with [[Breakfast at Tiffany's 56662]], the simple version with holds is maybe/probably easier

== Pre-Pattern Training Exercise ==

B has two clubs, A has one differently-colored club - the zap. 

Maybe also do a pre-exercise similar to the one of [[Breakfast at Tiffany's 56662]]: 

Juggler A doesn't really juggle and just throws the first zap to B so B can react on the incoming zap with "self, zap, zap". 

Repeat for both jugglers (note that one juggler will need to throw crossing zaps, the other will need to throw straight zaps)

Continue on when you think both can handle the kind of zaps they get from B.

== Pattern Description ==

{{Template:AnimateSiteswap|56252}}

Sequence: 
A begins and throws diagonal zaps, B throws straight zaps. Each juggler has one club in each hand.

It helps (at least it helps me) to think of the sequence as zap,zap,zip,zip,self.

<pre class="throw-sequence">
A 1|1: zap, 	zip, 	zip, 	self, 	zap, ...
B 1|1:     	self, 	zap, 	zap, 	zip, 	zip, ...
</pre>

== Additional Things to Do ==

* As usual, you can (should) do one zip behind your back

==  Similar Patterns ==

You can replace the sequence "zip,zip" with "pass, pass" and get [https://passist.org/siteswap/56757?jugglers=2 56757] with two more clubs. This pattern can be seen as a much easier trainings pattern that.


== Next Patterns ==
With one club more and a pass instead of a zip:

* [[ Double-zap-triple-zip-double-self 5256262 ]]

== [[Compatible Patterns]] ==

same number of clubs, i.e. you can switch patterns

* 57242 (1x early single)
* 27227 (2x early single or "[[brother of inverted parsnip]]")
