 86420 is a symmetrical 4 object siteswap where none of the throws cross. The 8s are more than 5 times as high as the basic pattern, the 6s are half that height, and the 4s are about a third of the height of the 6s. Those three throws should all peak at the same time. This pattern is like 642 done with active 2s, but with all three throws made high enough that there is a two-beat pause before the next set of three throws. This is the 4 object version of 6420.
