About this pattern
Five balls in a single crossing pattern, the same shape as the three-ball cascade but higher and considerably faster. A long-standing milestone.
Learning this pattern
Before learning this
Worth having comfortable before you start.
Practice tips
- Height buys time. Throw higher than feels necessary.
- Work on the five-ball flash first and add catches gradually.
Common mistakes
- Throwing too low, which leaves no time to make the next throw.
- Widening the pattern under pressure until the catches are out of reach.
