77772 is a symmetrical 6 object siteswap where all the throws cross at 7 ball height. Four throws are made with alternate hands in an even rhythm, and then there is a 1-beat pause before starting the next set of four throws with the same hand that made the last throw. This is the 6 object version of 552, and is a good exercise to work on to prepare for the 7 ball cascade.
