5551 by itself is not that great of a trick. Its main purpose is to be used as a stepping stone to the 5-Ball Cascade.
Instructions:
Start by flashing the 5551. Begin with two balls in each hand. Make three throws with alternating hands (like a regular cascade), but make these throws higher and quicker than normal. When all three balls are in the air, pass the forth ball straight over to the other hand.
Now, just keep that pattern going continuously. Again, this trick will help you get ready for the 5-Ball Cascade.
