531 is a symmetrical 3 object siteswap where all the throws cross. The right hand throws the first ball at 5 ball height (a 5), then the left hand throws the next ball at 3 ball height (a 3), about a quarter of the height of the 5, and then the other ball is passed straight from the right hand to the left hand (a 1). Then the same three beats are repeated, starting with the left hand throwing a 5 with the ball that was just passed to it. The 3s are done with the same ball every time.
