6662

<tabber>
6662 is an asymmetrical 5 object siteswap where none of the throws cross. This pattern is a good exercise to work on to prepare for the 6 ball fountain, since it's just like an 6 ball fountain except one hand is only juggling 2 balls. That hand throws to the same height as the hand juggling 3, but at half the speed, so the hand juggling 2 only makes one throw for every two throws made by the hand juggling 3, and there is a pause on every 4th beat. The 6s should be about 1 1/2 times as high as the basic pattern. This is the 5 object version of 552, and can be done either synch or asynch.
