Arm bounces

(1/1)

ramonmb:
I really would like to do this trick. It's the one that appears in 5:08 in this video, but I don't know how to do it. Any tips?

If you can do orbits over both arms, that bounce is frankly just a matter of practice. I've never tried that trick, but it doesn't look to me like he's doing anything special. Just keep the string relatively taut and give the diabolo a little toss whenever it lands before it has time to roll down the string and you should be good.

ramonmb:
It may seem easy, but doing it as smooth as him is really difficult.  Thanks for the tip anyway

A lot is, but it's mostly a matter of practice - good luck! :-)

Thanks man! The trick is starting to work! A problem I have sometimes is that when I want to do the right bounce, it ends up with a trapeze around my right arm. How can I change this?
