Flash (juggling)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A flash in juggling is where each ball in a pattern being juggling is thrown and caught once. For a three-ball cascade, this means three throws and three catches. However, for a four balls mills mess, this means six throws/catches, as one round of the pattern requires six throws to complete it. The term is used to distinguish the flash from the more continuous qualify, wherein every prop must be thrown and caught at least twice.
Records
World records are kept for both juggling and flashing for balls and bean bags (considered equivalent), clubs and sticks (also equivalent), and rings. The records, according to JISCON, are as follows:
- Clubs or sticks: 9 sticks by Bruce Tiemann in 1996, Scott Sorensen in 1997, Chris Fowler in 2003 and Daniel Eaker in 2009.
- Balls or beanbags: 13 beanbags by Alex Barron in 2011.
- Rings: 13 rings by Albert Lucas in 2002.
Unofficial claims (without video evidence):
- Rings: 14 rings by Albert Lucas
- Balls or beanbags: 13 beanbags by Peter Bone
