7531

7531 is an asymmetrical 4 object siteswap where all the throws cross. The objects are thrown and then caught in the reverse order: the last object thrown is caught first (actually this object is not thrown, it's just passed from one hand straight into the other), and the first object thrown is caught last. This is the 4 object version of 531.
The right hand throws the first ball at 7 ball height (a 7), then the left hand throws the next ball at 5 ball height (a 5), less than half the height of the 7, then the right hand throws the next ball at 3 ball height (a 3), about a quarter of the height of the 5, and then the fourth ball is passed straight from the left hand to the right hand (a 1). Then the same throws are repeated, starting with the right hand throwing a 7 with the ball that was just passed to it. When the pattern is done with the right heights and a good even rhythm, all the objects peak at the same time.

== Siteswap exercises ==
You can use these exercises to practice the same kinds of throws and sequences of throws that are done in this pattern, before you learn the full pattern.
Some of the siteswaps listed below are shortened to leave out parts where you’re not doing anything. Click on them to see animations of the exercises.
You should practice doing these starting with your right hand and with your left hand, so that you will be able to do the pattern on either side.
