441 is a simple symmetrical 3 object siteswap. Two balls are thrown one at a time with non-crossing throws like the throws in a 4 ball fountain (4s), one from the right hand and then one from the left hand, and then the other ball is passed straight from the right hand to the left hand (a 1). Then the same three beats are repeated on the other side, starting with the left hand throwing a 4 with the ball that was just passed to it.
