That is such a funny trick, don't know why, just seems funny.  It's gnarly too, but made me chuckle.  It reminds me of my s-fans, I never seem to bring my left hand over enough on the first revolution so the diabolo on the normal side of the string flies away when I catch the darkside diabolo.  Good idea though, what's the tree one...?

Glad you all like it, of course there are many variations of it I'm working on but that is the base trick I've been working from, tried it a few times on a lamp post and only got the accuracy to keep it stable after the bounce once but I didn't recatch it.  Even though the tree's a more uneven surface the added width makes it easier than a lamp post.

Soz Norbi if you had bigger ideas for this trick, we'll still use the tree footage fo sho at somepoint but I'm sure we can come up with something better than a simple bounce to go along with it later  :wink:

Thanks for all your comments!  :D
