630 is a symmetrical 3 object siteswap. Two balls are thrown at 6 ball height (about six times as high as a 3 ball cascade juggled at the same speed), one going up and down on each side of the pattern, and the other ball is thrown from hand to hand at 3 ball height. The rhythm of the pattern is right-left-pause-left-right-pause. One hand throws a 6, then the other hand throws a 3, then you pause for one beat and repeat those throws on the other side.
This is an excited state siteswap, starting in the state 1101. You can do this pattern from a cold start by starting with one ball in the hand that throws first and two in the other, or you can transition from the basic pattern to 630 by throwing a 4, and go back to the cascade by pausing for one extra beat after a 0:
