To practice this tutorial, you will need to know how to speed up your diabolo. You will also need to know how to throw your diabolo in the air and catch it. This trick will require precision, especially in the strength of the movements of your wrist. The success of this type of throw is directly related to the speed that you manage to give to your diabolo thanks to the movement of your wrist.

To practice this tutorial, we advise you to be already a little used to practicing the diabolo.

We have made a whole series of tutorials for all levels, do not hesitate to watch the first ones if you do not feel you have a sufficient technical level for this tutorial.

Our diabolo tutorials.

For the realization of this tutorial, we equipped ourselves with a large diabolo, equipped with triple bearings, the Hurricane. You can also make this trick with a fixed axis diabolo. The fact that we use a diabolo equipped with bearings makes the trick easier to perform because the diabolo will keep its speed longer than a diabolo equipped with a fixed axis.

For the video, we used a very, very thick string that is not normally used for practicing the diabolo. The only advantage of using this thick string is to allow a better understanding of the video because we can see it better on the screen than a real diabolo string.

Enjoy the lesson, if you have any questions, feel free to use the comment section below.
