first them are sone sweet baggies you have on

BOLTS FOR EVER!

and now on to the vid

its a nice smooth action you have, but a variation on what you just did, when you are jumping round your leg using two hands....

get the string tight and bounce the diabolo back and forth on teh strings at the top if the jump, pretty much tramaplineing it off each string, causeing it to switch direction, then bounce it back

makes a really nice stall pattern

something i have been working on for a wee while

also can you do the behind the back jumps like the one round the leg

step over your line, go round the back, angle it up past your should so now you are running diagonally, and then you canm really easily suicide out from behind you

enjoy

nice vid, buut MORE!

yeh i ca do the bounces over the top and love them. I have another much longer combo but its about 5 mb long. I could use my new gmial acount if anyone wants a look?. Its the same shitty quality image but 5 times longer. might answer your question about the btb move.

well i kinda took as a question as it was worded "can you do the behind the back jumps like the one round the leg" the answer being yes i think. Do you just meen orbits around the backthen infront of the face right?

Has any one got any diabolo vids laying around (not ones from the big sites like JiBe etc. Its just that im thinking that a need a lil bit of inspiration a bonus would be a fire diabolo one as ive only ever seen 1 vid with it in and id love to see some from infront rather than behind the diabolo, if you get my meaning

I know there was but it most of its 2 or 3 stuff which im not really into as much, I prefer 1. the one stuff is really good to but completly indesiferable without talking to the people doing it.

plus it would be cool to get more dibaolo vids on here anyway.

Right i have taken matters into my own hands and rented a camera from college. Ive already got footage both of me and devil stick Russell (of the famed vid "Sticks and Socks", he’s got loads better by the way).



The vid will include a 50/50 split of diabolo and devil sticks and possibly and extra 25% of staff curtsy of Lavatwlight.



Now only the hard bit left of learning to edit and then finding a friendly person wit some bandwidth (hint hint).



Look out for one hell of a wrist trap combo from Russell and maybe alil fire diabolo two.
