Wow, that little guy is really good. Do they breed special diabolo- children in the East or something? Just as they do with jugglers in Russia..

Just as they do with jugglers in Russia..Yep, they're planted in special breeding grounds where they grow up eating with handsticks out of diabolo cups (ok, this exaggeration falls down abit as chinese style diabolos don't have "cups" persay).But it's just a cultural thing. Like being good at football, or drinking. I'm not sure why, maybe they don't watch as much TV. Can't wait to watch the clips though, haven't seen anything of this fellow.Chiok(unfortunately born in London)
Nice videos, the 3d especially. He's got the same right-hand-dominant pattern that Yabe has.

Oh another badass trick he did IN HIS ROUTINE was the 2 high skip whip thing (3401 maybe?).
And now it seems that every oriental in the world can do the splits. At one point i really wanted to learn it so i tried and streched daily for weeks. Then i pulled a muscle in my leg and couldn't walk for 2 days... so i stopped!
Splits are hard, and yep, some people are physically incapable of doing it, it's just something you find out. I like how it steals a bit of Frebourg's thunder. What I'm impressed with is how he keeps control of the shuffle when it's an inch off of the ground. And he's not even that tall, which makes it even more difficult (higher size - diabolo size ratio).

I aplogize to all those offended.Your overwhelming gramatical genius never ceases to amaze.
I do want to see what makes him so awesome. Is it he's just very solid with his tricks? Or does he have some double-hard moves in his belt? Would like to see more.
Anyway, it's not that good.
also you have some different footage than the dvd which is why you should post it.
Has anyone here got ESPN or ESPN2? Because i had never even hear of it until WJF 04.
i've had ESPN and ESPN2 for several years. it's been on basic cable here in the states for a while
