Half Shower (4 Ball)

The 4-ball half shower is an asymmetric juggling pattern where each hand performs a different type of throw.
One hand makes high outside-to-inside crossing throws (overthrows), while the other makes low inside-to-outside crossing throws (underthrows).
Both actions are throws, not passes.

【How the Pattern Works】
- One hand: high outside-to-inside crossing throws (overthrows)
- Other hand: low inside-to-outside crossing throws (underthrows)
- These two different throws alternate continuously
This creates an asymmetric rhythm with clear height differences.

【Difference from Shower】
- Shower: balls move in one direction
- Half shower: hands throw in opposite directions
- Shower: low ball is more like a pass
- Half shower: both balls are thrown

【Practice Steps】
1. Learn 3-ball half shower
- Understand outside-to-inside and inside-to-outside throws

2. Practice with 2 balls
- Control high and low throws separately

3. Try 4 balls
- Keep high throws consistent
- Control low throws accurately

【Common Mistakes and Tips】
- Passing instead of throwing → Always throw both balls
- Mixing directions → Keep directions distinct
- Poor height contrast → Separate high and low clearly

【Tips for Improvement】
- Master 3-ball half shower first
- Focus on throw direction
- Prioritize accuracy over speed
- Record yourself

【Practice Time Guidelines】
- Understand within 1–2 weeks
- Achieve first success in 2–4 weeks
- Build consistency within 1–2 months
