3 diabolo tricks - crazy ideas

[pranay]

I'm still waiting on (3)7411*2*3*(3)

anyone?

I think I might be able to do that but it probably won't look better then a normal fts 123...

[Crackers]

I guess you could pull it off yeah.
I tried, it's harder than I thought, and it will definitely look terrible ... so it's not for me.

Your siteswap fails.

btw i stink at siteswap lingo so tell if this is right/possible?

[Diabolo88]

The orbitor? Long time no see..
Doable from 3d box?

From experience it is possible to get into from a normal 42. Just make the 4 drop in the middle of the pattern with the correct timing (I don´t know the proper timing or how to exit, never put much work into a "mistake").

However if you already have a stable 3 low wouldn´t you try to correct it unconsciously? Would be a difficult trick to do on purpose. Looking at that video it´s easy to see the mind is still in 2D.

the orbitor
thats how i shuffle three right now lol

i was just looking throught this thread and saw sean's first post and i was like wow all that stuff has been done now

not very clean but done
correct me if i am wrong

[Duncan]

Yeah, Sean's first post was filled with absolutely impossible tricks back then:

So what are some other possible tricks for 3 low. Priam brought up the cascade pattern...

Done by Dekel the most nowadays and likely best nowadays (haven't seen Jacob's progress since the BJC).

-3 diabolo mini-columns. This would be a STUNNING trick!

Definitely done by quite a few people nowadays.

-Picking one diabolo out of the shuffle and whipping it while the other two keep circling then put it back into the shuffle.

I'd say Arata is the closest to this one. A hover could be considered as such, but it's not really whipping.

-Grind a diabolo on each stick while one spins on the string.

Twister is the only one I've seen taking big steps in grinds with 3d. And doing it well too.

-All sorts of sprinkler tricks - you'd need to get very good at 3 diabolo whipping or bring the pattern down from a high pattern first.

Feed the sprinkers come to mind. I know I'm forgetting others.

-Is any kind of knot transfer possible? I can't think of anything that would make sense at this point.

Pete's votw was one of the first. Jack Chen also has his nice little move that he does. Davefromthegrave had an unbelievable spurt where he nailed the transfers.

-All sorts of 2 diabolo tricks under a third diabolo that is popped up high.

Baptiste's mini-columns under a high throw, all kinds of siteswaps that have been invented, feeds, unfeeds. It looks pedestrian nowadays

-A 3 diabolo fan - 3 pieces to the fan!?

Eltharion was one of the first (perhaps the first) to really get any success with the 3d fan.


Yeah, It's been a good run for 3d development. Just think back then when doing 3d made you a king - and then think further back when 2d made you a god.

As for a crazy idea, here's an idle thought while I was wondering what kind of 3high tricks I'd like to try some day - high throw, then a throw of 2 around the body and back into 3high (somehow).

Like a 42 but juggling behind the back ?
That would be so cool

[William]

btb I could get into, Too bad I suck at 42s..

[Sean]

Yeah, Sean's first post was filled with absolutely impossible tricks back then:

Ha. Obviously I didn't dream big enough. Shall I make up another set of impossible tricks and we'll wait another 4 years for them to be cracked?

They all still seem impossible to me. Haven't cracked a single one - and it's not from a lack of trying.

god. dave took pretty much every crazy idea i had and did it in that video.internal sprinklers!? what. that is still inspiration to me

[Rola]

It would be great a feed the splinker 2-3 That you throw One diabolo and you do a splinker and then the thir diabolo enter to the splinker

[Sean]

That has been done. Can't remember what videos I've seen it in though.

If we are talking about a high (42) pattern with the string in behind the back position, thus catching and passing the diabolo behind one's back to throw on the other side, such a pattern is tremendously hard to execute for more then 1 or 2 cycles. Probably for some people around the globe their daily 2 seconds of fun, but very few really.

[Crackers]

The 2 is not blind, it's more like a body orbit. Still bloody hard though ...
The only one I can see pull off this "easily" would be arata

tony Frebourg i think he could do it

[Diabolo Dodson]

How about 3D reverse cascade? or is that too crazy

3 high passing would be the easiest way. The throws might might be too tricky for one person alone though [1].

[1] Waiting for Dekel to prove me wrong.

Most of it probably won´t happen soon (my dreams only):

1-2-3 fts but replace all the suns with suicides. Diabolotino/Yeow in the not so far off future maybe?

Shuffle behind the back and when that´s possible suns and fts BTB. After that box, cascade btb. Extension to that would be rollout- or 522* rollout sun. Extension to that ( ) could be continuation of the fts immediately from rollout.

Shuffle around the neck.

Cascade with every catch a penguin catch.

Vortex to left stickstall + stopover on the dominant hand. Sun back into shuffle.

2D shuffle in an armstall, jump the 3rd over, carry it all around the neck, sun out.

Right sprinkler 180 suicide to 180 sun out (from the Taiwanese).

Columns-cascade-box-42*-back to box all in one combo. Maybe 531 somewhere in there too (Dekel?).

522 from wrap with the 22 as a pirouette sun.

Sticktwirls shuffle or the trick where you go around the diab with the string in a shuffle (on every beat).

5223. 22 as sprinkler, 3 as outside knotsteal out.

double trapezewhip from a shuffle (have to be async shuffle or it will never work, I managed this in a 2D shuffle so maybe not very far off for someone good with 3D).

Left BW slowcide duicide (like the one Tony does in his routine) as 3D start. Diab 2 and 3 thrown while the duicide is airborne. Add a pirouette for more difficulty.

High cascade with every throw a trapeze-BTB release.

Hasnt Crackers pulled this off? i dunno if hes filmed it tho

[Crackers]

I did land this but haven't got any proof of it yet
