Handy handsticks

These handsticks are sold by the pair and already equipped with a length of string.

Diabolo Handy handsticks:

Wooden diabolo sticks with a thicker handle, ideal for adults and for those new to the discipline.

The finishes are of really good quality on this item made in Germany by Henrys. You almost wonder why they go to so much trouble on this item. As it turns out, after visiting the Henrys factory, I found out that the handle is actually made from wood which does not have the correct weight to make Henrys clubs... If Henrys didn't make these handsticks, the wood would have been wasted...

Remember that diabolo string tends to wear out ! We sell it in reel on our website. The string wears out particularly quickly with beginners who tend to have jerky movements compared to more experienced diabolists who will generally practice more smoothly. These handsticks are sold in pairs and already equipped with a length of string for beginners.

NetJuggler's opinion on these handsticks:

It is appreciable with these handsticks that they are very thin which makes them much better than standard wooden sticks for making slides, they will last much longer. A slide or a grind is a trick much practiced by beginners which involves landing the diabolo on a handstick.

What kind of use ?

These handsticks are ideal for beginners.

Choose your handsticks:

Whatever handstick you choose, you can realize almost every trick.

• Beech wood handsticks are robust, they are widely used in schools and associations.
• Aluminum handsticks are rigid. Beginners' favorites, they are thin and therefore excellent to make slides / grinds that last very long. They are also widely used by diabolists who practice intensively.
• Carbon handsticks are flexible diabolo handsticks. They are used to practice with several diabolos in order to better absorb the fall of the diabolos. They offer extra comfort compared to aluminum baguettes.
• The fiberglass handsticks are very light. The lighter the handsticks, the more you can feel the diabolo on the string. On the same principle as the carbon handsticks, they are slightly flexible for more comfort.

Set the string of your diabolo:

For this activity, an important point is the length of the string. The length depends on your size but also on your preferences. There's no typical length!

That being said, for children, a string from foot to shoulder is usually what is used. For teenagers/adults, a little less length is used, usually from your foot to your armpit.
To find the length you prefer, do several tests and, as soon as it feels goods, keep it that way !
