As an amateur juggler/magician, it's also an interesting point to consider from the perspective of your audience. The layman might not have a visible appreciation for the additional difficulty, as opposed to the keen eyes of professionals.
Claw pattern is another good one, since you don't have the luxury of allowing the ball to fall into your waiting hand but have to snatch them out of the air.
