« on: August 28, 2008, 09:06:46 PM »

Well guys something REALLY wierd happened to me 2 days ago...

I was doing normal orbit accelaration and the string was a bit grippy
Anyways the diabolo came to the left hand stick and the left stick just flew out of my hand... Did a insane amount of wraps on my diabolo, Hit my finger and flew away

And now i have no stick... A broken finger... And sadness

Welcome to the forum willzB
I think this topic would belong in the "I'm New" section 

Well about the site thing if you want to start from the ground up i suggest you look around for some starter tricks on the diabolotricks site (http://www.diabolotricks.com) And then move on to more complex tricks

And about the 1D 2D and 3D it stands for 1 Diabolo, 2 Diabolos, 3 Diabolos
It's terms in juggling to make everyone's life easyer

Hope this helped and if you have anymore questions i'm pretty sure the people at diabolo.ca are really helpfull

I found them really helpfull

And remember diaboloing is for fun not hard work

Tricks / Re: Spaghetti Knot

« on: August 17, 2008, 01:18:38 PM »

Well i'm not sure this is a "Spaghetti variations" thread but i got a really nice one

1: Do a right backwrap (So your string will be crossed)
2: Do the "Spaghetti"
3: Poke your left hand stick (Right hand if you are a lefty) through the string in the middle
4: Then simply give the diabolo a bit of a push forward and keep spinning the sticks around it (In a circular motion around the diabolo)
5: Throw the whole knot to your left and swing it to the right
6: Then do a genocide/minigenocide and you can pick it up from there

Feel free to use it as much as you like
Cheers!

Very cool video man

My favourite part is when you do 2D then another one of you appears and starts diaboloing 

Awesome video nuff said
