Cascade (Juggling)

A cascade is a juggling pattern in which the objects are thrown from one hand to the other (left throws to right, right throws to left) alternating, with the outgoing throw going under the incoming object. Viewed from the front, the outgoing ball is closer to the center of the pattern than the incoming one. Your right and left hands will be moving in clockwise and counter-clockwise circles respectively.
alternate definition from Francis Favorini: A cascade is the most common juggling pattern. It involves an odd number of objects, each of which is thrown, alternating hands, from one hand to the other (right throws to left, left throws to right). A thrown object travels in a trajectory that goes underneath the incoming object. I.e., the throw is made from a position closer to the center of the pattern than the catch. From the point of view of the juggler, the right and left hands will be moving in clockwise and counter-clockwise circles, respectively.

Cascade (Landscape)

A fall of water arranged in a succession of stages, either informally over a rock formation or more formally over a series of steps; a rustic arch often projects above the cascade, especially if the water emerges from a hillside.
