"In this video we're going to be talking about back cross multiplexes. Now, even though the name is pretty complicated, the trick itself is not that complicated. I think it's one of my favorites. It looks something like this. As you can tell it's just a back cross multiplex. To do this, obviously you need to know how to throw a clean multiplex, like that, two balls out of one hand. You also need to have a very clean back cross. Like that. What we're going to do, is we're going to stack the two balls in our strong hand just like this, with one on our fingers and one in our palm, and then to make the throw we're going to bring it around our back, and when it's down here we're going to flick our wrist straight up so we get some separation between these two balls. Just like this. Now the third ball is going to be being thrown out of your weak hand over to your right hand. So it will be like this. So after you make this back cross you need to pull your hand right back out to catch that third ball. Just like you were doing with normal back cross. Something like that. Now this is important to learn with both hands, just like any other trick. So you need to get it down with your right and your left hand. Now, some of my favorite patterns to make this work. You can alternate. So, left, right. Let's try that one more time, left, right, and such on, and you can keep going and doing back cross multiplexes."
