i don't think you ordered enough,
those look pretty sweet, i like the shine on the inside of the cup, and of course some sweet 3D tricks

Haha. That's great. A diabolo unboxing video in HD.

Is it just me or are the Finesse Generation 4s starting to morph into Circuses?

No, i have this idea too.the diabolo gained height, and the cups do not have that 'wave' on the cup anymore, now the cups are similar to circuses, and also the rubber and the axle[my opinion] became bigger.
is that the same rubber and axle used on g3 and g4?

Marko · « **Reply #4 on:** August 14, 2009, 07:32:06 AM »

Yea, those are starting to look more like circuses. Probably still wont change away from my old circuses but will definitely test one of those 4gen finesses out when i can. Quite amazed how much they have changed the original diabolo...

Hathaway · « **Reply #5 on:** August 14, 2009, 09:29:59 AM »

That is quite a drastic change! Bit of a change from the previous risk free 'upgrading' of the finesse. Might have to play on these as soon as really.

NiekG · « **Reply #6 on:** August 14, 2009, 09:31:53 AM »

When will these be in stores? Or did I miss something again?

Tipper · « **Reply #13 on:** August 15, 2009, 01:49:14 PM »

A shop in a town near me sells these and i didnt even knew they were available in denmark

but they are a bit hard to get used to as im a trusty old finesse G1 user and just swapped my 2 old for these 2

but fantastic diabolos and the change of the axle is great ^^

_Rezi · « **Reply #14 on:** August 15, 2009, 07:51:35 PM »

It makes me laugh! They are just totally the same as my new red Henry's Visions. The difference is only in hubs

Alex! · « **Reply #15 on:** August 16, 2009, 08:43:57 PM »

And the weight, size, and material though

jajajaja.
the hubs, the size, the weight, the material... every thing?

Sean · « **Reply #17 on:** August 17, 2009, 01:16:28 PM »

Except that the Finesse G4 is *40* grams heavier! How does that make them anything similar? The only similarity I see is that the Vision used a similar looking cup material. Otherwise it would appear the Finesse has slowly morphed into the shape and weight of the Circus.

I was saying these were actualy all differences between g4's and visions.

do you know where can i see the new evolution kits?

4leek24 · « **Reply #20 on:** August 31, 2009, 11:53:05 PM »

im still confused on when they come out and where to get them. also, will g4 replace g3 on store shelves like g3 replaced g2 and g1? g4 is way too different to be the only finesse out there.

Tipper · « **Reply #21 on:** September 01, 2009, 01:41:45 PM »

well... in denmark it was placed on the shelf next to a g3. i asked the lady at the desk if they had more of these and she said that she thought they were all similar

well its funny how stupid people can be when working in a freakin juggling store

but they had 2 blues and 1 yellow g4s in that shop so i bought the 2 blue

gu havde det ej g4. i games ved de ikke engang om det er g1 g2 eller g3 men jeg ved at det ihvertfald ikke er g4.

bums3n · « **Reply #23 on:** September 01, 2009, 02:42:26 PM »

they dont have g4's in Denmark redhead. Thats for sure!

NiekG · « **Reply #24 on:** September 01, 2009, 06:41:01 PM »

Danish, once again: are you sure those are G4's? I mean, Ofek just got them and he's sponsored by MB. How could a normal juggling store have them at almost the same time? It's really hard to believe as no one else has seen them anywhere.

They are out, they were selling them at several stalls at BJC, pretty sure my local store has them too.

thank you for sticking up for me dodson my pal x] and i can know it because at the same day i had checked ofeks video and ofeks blog with pictures comparing the g3 to the g4 and it aint a g3. im 110% sure and ill make a vid with em if thats the prob?

NiekG · « **Reply #27 on:** September 01, 2009, 08:57:59 PM »

No no it's not like I'm trying to prove you wrong or something :p I was just wondering how it could be, as I'd never seen them in any store in the Netherlands. Ah well, I'm gonna buy Sundia Suns anyway so nevermind

g4 is much heavier than g3. the shape of the body is different, and so is the axel. its good, but its too much change for me. i have to get used to it.

rastarabz · « **Reply #35 on:** March 15, 2010, 01:03:41 PM »

Does anybody have an in-depth review of the G4? I really like the G3's weight compared to the Circus's. The Circus really bothers my wrists, because of its weight. So most of all, I would like to know how much will the G4's weigh gain bother me?

Thanks in advance,
Zoli

Crackers · « **Reply #36 on:** March 16, 2010, 12:46:18 AM »

You'd probably prefer to stick with your G3 if you don't like the Circus's weight. The G4 is still lighter than the Circus, but it has a lot of inertia so it feels quite heavy.

Hey! Thanks for the tip. Do you think I can still find G3s on the market?

That I have no idea sorry.

seán_ · « **Reply #39 on:** March 16, 2010, 11:54:12 PM »

G3's are getting thin on the ground. Best to check out some shops now rather than later (and there might be few choices when it comes to colours and they might not necessarily be listed on the site).

.... now if only somebody wanted these never used white G2's I stumbled upon in my van the other day

bourgeois.jason · « **Reply #40 on:** March 17, 2010, 12:03:54 AM »

Butterfingers has a few G3's available to their wholesale customers. I'm sure they'd sell you a couple. Last time I spoke to the guy at www.diabolorevolution.com he had G2's in stock. It's probably the last place you'll be able to find new G2's.

I have no idea what you're talking about here. Also, a necro on a thread where no one posted for 10 months isn't so cool. Next time, start a new thread and ask your question more clearly.
