Hey guys, I was wondering is there a comprehensive list of all vertax tricks, or if not, could someone make one.There doesn't seem to be a huge amount of base tricks, excluding variations and whatnot.These are all the tricks I can think of -

Trapezes                                       vertax duicides
Suns (overarm/underarm, etc.)          gunslinger thingy
Vertax suicide
Vertax whip
UFO grind
Vertax Genos
Vertax inf. suicides
Under the legs suns
Open Suns

Can anybody think of any more?

-Is it good for vertax?
-Is it good at finger grinds?
-Is it too light?
-How nice do they look when are spinning?(Thinking about a clear one)
-Are they stable at low speeds?
-Last question - Should I invest in a Fly instead?

General / Your worst moment in diaboloing

« on: July 17, 2009, 06:20:57 PM »

Two weeks ago, I started a thread about your best moments in diaboloing. Now I am curious as to what your worst moments are.

Last month, I was busking at a Street Performance festival in Cork, and I looked up to see if I had space to do a high throw. As I started to throw it, a raindrop hit me in the eye, I looked down reflexively,
and got a faceful of finesse.I had a huge burn mark under my eye.The crowd burst into laughter, and at that moment, a festival official threw me out, because I wasn't ''affiliated with the festival'', and took the money I had earned.

Try as you might, it will be hard to top that.

General / Your greatest moment in diaboloing

My greatest moments were doing vertax for the first time (I think I cried!), and getting my g3 finesses after a year with a 2 euro diabolo. Just as a matter of curiosity, what have been your greatest moments since you have started with a diabolo?
