If you release in the direction your non dominant hand (so not the way most people release), the sticks often swap due to the diabolos spin so you get a wrap, which can be either a good or a bad thing.
Generally with the sticks, if you've guided them through the swing carefully and let go gently, then the sticks will keep position relative to each other.
There's a way of 'knitting' your sticks together if you want to keep them neat for the Chinese style big duicide throw to kneeling/smiling finish.
