In juggling, the term flash is used to describe the throwing and catching of a number of props when each prop is thrown and caught only once. The term is used to distinguish the flash from the more continuous juggle, 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. They, according to JISCON, are as follows:
- Clubs or sticks: 9 sticks by Bruce Tiemann in 1996, Scott Sorensen in 1997 and Chris Fowler in 2003.
- Balls or beanbags: 12 beanbags by Bruce Sarafian in 1996 and Peter Bone in 2006.
- Rings: 13 rings by Albert Lucas in 2002.
Unofficial claims (without video evidence):
