so feedback for you lavatwlight
0.20 back hand spins try keep staff more horizontal and it wont get away from you so much
0.28 fishtails stand upright your leaning forward alot at the moment
0.34 when u go from the halo to take it in front u lose control of it as the point of contact on the stick jumps from one point to one much further down the staff rather than transitioning on all the points in between
u do a little dinosaw arm just when u start the doubles
this is a personal taste thing when u start with two and through it up u force the staff to stop and go the opposite direction id suggest going with it (better for your wrists to
)i would suggest playing with parrallels a bit to
try and slow everything down it will help u maintain control
look forward to seeing the next one

My God you got spymac going, it's a miracle.
I’ve not videoed fire as yet but will most likely do it after the exams
All constructive criticism would be much appreciated.
But don’t try and tell me to smile it just doesnt work like that, along the same lines the look on my face is not loathing towards my diabolo or the camera, but rather the reaction of my eyes to the unusual amount of sun shine we had that day

Ifrit....dude that's some nice diablo work you got goin on there. Real smooth and flowy and lovely, some real teachy stuff worked in with elegance. Top job! Would postively critique it but I don't have the knowledge of diablo, but I know it makes me smile and yours make me smile lots
<- like that! Oh and that trick you do around 2:00, (is that a hyperloop for diablos?) I just found that with my sock poi, like last night! You psychic translatin future move theif

I think your talking about the infinite suicide, were the diabolo stays still and the sticks swings around. I prefer to think of it as more a oli style isolation for diabolo, but less orginal.

Lava,
Parallels are when the staves are going in the same direction at the same time... || // = \\ (as if those were the staves in quarter circle increments.)
Let's turn those old bridges we crossed into ashes.
We'll blaze a new trail,

Ok abit of feed back for the staffs, I'd mainly agree with ben espsahly slow it all down abit and then when all alot cleaner you can speed it up again. possibly a way to make it look cleaner would be to try and keep the staff in tight planes. Althought i've seen some people who completly ignore planes and have leant to spin so flewedly that it looks great so that's really is up to you. But basicly what shouts out to me from that video is too fast not enough control. hope this helps and doesn't put you off cos it looks like youve got some nice ideas in the pip line.
don't do diabilo so can't be so hash on this vid but it was nice to see so one diabilo trick that i'd not seen b4
cool keep them coming
Maybe I should change this too something abit nicer, humm no I still think your all C

I don't know anything about diablo, but what's the music in the background? That's cool stuff.
I'm weird. Just work through that and we'll all be fine.

Its the background music from Age of Mythology. I didnt want to use any kinda band music as people tend to already have fixed opionions of band genres and i didnt want to pigeon hole the whole vid just becuase of the music.
Just out of interests is there a massive amount of blank time at the end of the version that has been uploaded? i only ask as i cant even download my own movie to watch it. (instead i have to make do with a 500mb version i brought home on disk

if i could have i would have put it all the way throught but i could find a track with the exact length and it wouldnt be right to use half a track as then you don get nowere near the right feeling from the song.
(as you can most likly tell i really love NIN although im not going to see them in london in march :'( due to lack of capital)
