I just learnt to... (2009)

[MonochromaticTiel]

I just learned to do a stopover.  Yeah, it's not impressive, but I am still happy!

[Arjan]

Victory of a dumb ass sports sort of juggler being unique along the lines of "harder, better, faster and yes, stronger": Today I pulled of for the very first time in my life a 3 diabolo to 4 diabolo with a kickup, a clean pattern, qualify and collect. To be exact a (3)55500*44444444 and collect the whole load. * The double zero is at least the amount of time I need for the kickup into the string, and being thrown clean into the pattern, being the 1st 4.

If I'm happy? Bet your ass I am, and proud!     

 

[luabduch]

still improving it but:

double sprinkler suicide with a 360º turn...
séan (I wrote correctly?) did it on 'drop it like it's hot'

I think it's an awesome trick!!

I know how it looks and that's awesome. The first clean run+collect then? When you pulled off that trick at the NJF in front of Huub and me, we were really impressed. Are you telling me that wasn't clean?

[Arjan]

I got into the pattern then, but did not have a clean pattern and collect as I remember.

[Crackers]

That's insane Arjan

few days back I pulled out my first 3D vortex. Now I can do it few times a day

I just need tips for opening the hyperloop (of two diabolos) 'cause one almost always flies out

[LaNgErZ]

saska you are an absolute beast! i look forward to seeing it

When i worked on it a few months back, i found it helpfull to practice with 2D, just doing a standard sprinkler but unwrapping with your left hand, opposite to the entrance, you need that solid as thats how you exit the vortex.
I never got mine solid, its silly hard to get the hyperloop clean.

[JJesse]

Continuous slowcide minigenocides, can do them about 4-6 in a row with a finesse, if it doesnt wrap the wrong side.

how do you do a 3D vortex? i cant get to grips withe the technique.

Its a similar action to returning to hover. You front wrap, force the other 2 below it like it hover, then as you do the vortex motion it will force those 2 into a hyperloop, then you exit the hyplerloop rewrap the other then pray that you can return to shuffle.

i dont go into a hover like that though.

[Diabolo Dodson]

its how everyone does it, you wrap, then guide the other 2 below it. You cant hover any other way

[Hathaway]

DD I think janion has misunderstood what you have said, because he doesn't front wrap to go into hover... Janion DD is saying that you do the front wrap then carry out the same motion to hover as you would with a back wrap. Simples...

[Mr.D]

Got the hang of 2d vortex suicides and the infinite suicide trick were you grind and toss the right stick around the diab and catch (name?)

Yeh i mean, when you vortex, as you wrap do the same motion as when you go into hover with your left hand.

tricks I am working :
cascade high descent to low :dropp on the cascade low  ****ing hard trick !!
FTS 12123 : I ve got it 2 times today !
cascade externe : Ive got 6 catches on this one but hard to exit on that
4 high : got 14 catches at london cant do more now :\

[Mr.P]

Lol i finally court the diabolo in excalibur genocide whohoo

[Cottie]

At last after a very long time failing I have finally got normal genocides down fairly solid and I've also finaly manged to get my head round minigens too and landed my first one last night and this morning did my first genocide to infinte(ish) suicide.
Also on a non diabolo note I have finally learnt to juggle three balls only managed 15 catches so far but getting better.
