Videos / Collab?

« on: May 11, 2006, 07:34:11 PM »

Okey, this is just a thought from my side, I won't be able to organize anything, atleast not yet as school is killing me.
But what do you guys say about making some sort of collab-video as has been done at rec.juggling and is tried to be done at gatto's forum. Ofcourse it would be diabolo only. As many as possible film a short routine or a trick or whatever and send it in to a person in charge of editing. This would give people that are not familiar with editing a chance to take part in a video, and it would also be some good advertisement for this site and forum. So, how about it? Could this be reality in a near future?

Gear / Henrys fiberglass/carbon stick problems

« on: November 30, 2004, 07:31:52 PM »

Today I've noticed that one of my Henry Glassfiber stick is making a strange clicking sound inside the rubberhandle when i do orbits and such to gain speed.
I have also tried twisting and turning the said stick and the same sound is made. Anyone experienced this?
Is the stick broken under the rubber, and over time will it get worse? If not how can I atleast get rid of the sound since it is a bit annoying.
Anyone knows what I am talking about and can help?

It would really suck if the stick is broken since I got it just a few days ago.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

General / Good Diabolo music?

« on: November 25, 2004, 10:16:28 PM »

Hi everybody.

I just wanted to ask what music you listen too(if any) when you play with the diabolo.
I havent started training at home for real yet, but I will start soon and then I need some music to 'jam' too.

What I usually listen too is Type 0 Negative, System of a down and then and then the cure. But none of those are in my opinion suited for diaboloing.
Freestyler which TMFP used in the beginning of the Diabology trailer is a perfect example of good 'jamming music'
And I am looking for more of that kind of music I guess, breakdancing music should work good, but I am very new in that area of music. And now a days there arent much of that music on MTV. They just broadcast blingbling rappers and britney and her copies.

So got any tips for good Diabolo music?'
Any help and/or info on what you guys listen too is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
