Tricks / new trick Idea

« on: January 07, 2009, 03:35:01 AM »

I've been watching a lot of diabolo vids recently, and one of them sent me a link to regular yoyos.  From there, I saw alot of crazy off string and freehand tricks.  I finally came up with this idea for a new trick.

I call it vertax fan.  The name explains alot, but this is what it is. 
1.  You get 1 diabolo into or almost into complete verticality.
2.  Get a friend to do the same.
3.  Backwrap your friend's diabolo and begin an s fan.
4.  Continually spin counter-clockwise(clockwise for lefties) while keeping the s-fan motion.
5.  Pass a diabolo back to your friend by stopping the s-fan motion.
6.  You're done.

I'm posting up this trick idea so that you guys can try out this idea and tell me if it works as I also try to do this.  Post your ideas on the trick and your progression.

Tricks / My new trick idea

« on: November 09, 2008, 04:48:48 PM »

If you guys haven't already seen, I made a video of all the vertax genocide tricks that I could think of at the moment.  I decided, though, that there is one more that I want to learn.  It's a genocide-duicide-genocide combo.  basically, I do a regular vertax, but once the string catches onto the diabolo, I throw the stick from my hand and grab the other stick and do another vertax genocide.  I can't get it yet, so I decided to make this topic here one where I challenge others to complete it first or help give advice on how to do this impossible trick.

Gear / Where to get a bearing replacement axle

« on: September 13, 2008, 03:37:15 AM »

Hey guys.

So right now I have some sundia Flys and they rock.  There's just one problem: the bearings are pretty messed up.  I live in the United States, and I was wondering where the easiest place would be to buy my replacement axles from.  Thanks!
