== Vamp Types == The horizontal, hand-crossing throw in the box is known as the "vamp". In a traditional box pattern, the vamp crosses underneath the vertical paths of the other two "side balls". However, there are several variations on this vamp's placement. {| class="wikitable" !Title !Description !Demonstration |- !The Shuffle |In a shuffle throw, the vamp ball begins above and outside the vertical path of one of the box's "side balls" and is thrown diagonally downward, caught below the opposite "side ball". As such, it begins with the vamp ball raised in the upper corner of the pattern, and ends in a typical box position. |[[File:Shuffle Throw Demonstration.gif|thumb|A shuffle throw from left to right in slow motion]] |- !The Reverse Shuffle |The reverse shuffle is a time-reversed shuffle throw. The ball begins below one of the box's airborne "side balls," as in a normal box, but is thrown diagonally upwards, and caught above the opposite "side ball". As such, it ends with the vamp ball raised in the upper corner of the pattern. |[[File:Reverse Shuffle Throw Demonstration.gif|thumb|A reverse shuffle throw from right to left in slow motion]] |- !The Inverted Vamp |The inverted vamp travels above both "side balls", switching between the upper corners of the pattern. The fast movement required of the vamp ball, as well as the height limit imposed on the "side balls" to allow the vamp to travel above them, make the inverted vamp one of the most difficult vamp types. |[[File:Inverted Vamp Throw Demonstration.gif|thumb|An inverted vamp throw from left to right in slow motion]] |} <br />
