726 is a symmetrical 5 object siteswap with the same throwing rhythm as the 3 object pattern 423: right-pause-right-left-pause-left... with a 1-beat pause between throws with the same hand. The 7s cross, going more than twice as high as a cascade juggled at the same speed, and the 6 is a non-crossing throw about 2/3 of the height of the 7. In this pattern three balls are juggled in a cascade at 7 ball height, and the other two balls go up and down on the sides of the pattern at 6 ball height.

This is an excited state siteswap, starting in the state 111011. You can transition from the basic pattern to 726 using two 6s, and then back to the basic pattern with a 3:

...5555555555 66 726726726726726 3 5555555555...

726 starts in the same state as 771, so you can switch directly from one pattern to the other.
