Wednesday, November 21, 2007 7:23:06 PM There was one clip of a diabolo in this video, when the person was holding two handsticks with the ends of the string attached to them. The rest were all yoyos. Offstring is one style of yoyoing, somewhat similar to diabolos, but also different in a lot of ways. For example, the yoyo is not attached to the string, but the string is attached to your finger, and the string is wound around the axle of the yoyo to return it at the end of offstring tricks, and then the yoyo is thrown again to add spin to start tricks, whereas a diabolo is never wound on the string, spin is added in other ways, and both ends of the string are attached to handsticks. Also, they were actually using yoyos, which are much smaller than diabolos and designed much differently around the axle and in the string gap because they must be able to bind on the string and return to your hand with the string wound around the axle. |

Saturday, November 17, 2007 3:03:20 PM There's no denying these people have skills; I'm just saying a few of them look like they've never seen boobie beyond tv, computer, magazine, nudie bar.Those Chinese toy things are tzuh ling. You're Chinese you should know. And actually they weren't tzuh ling; they were diabolos. Axles' shorter, wheels are more cone shaped. I'm a geek I should know. |

Friday, November 16, 2007 11:46:45 PM You guys sound like you just copy whatever the person who post it says. If he said "Whoa these guys have some serious skill" Everybody would think this video is cool.Personally those looked very difficult to do. Most of them aren't even yo yos. Their that Chinese toy thing. Some of the yo yos completely came off the string. I'm Chinese I should know. o_O |

Friday, November 16, 2007 9:41:13 PM as motionblur said, some of these are diabolos *they changed the name of it a wile ago* and this stuff is seriously cool, the tricks they do here are really hard,*i am starting up diaboloing, can only do like 20 tricks * you should see diabolos when there normal size *these ones are actually around a quarter of the size* there simply amazing. i must say "screw you" to anyone who states otherwise, it takes a lot of talent and practice to even come NEAR the level of skill these guys have displayed. |

Friday, November 16, 2007 9:39:50 PM Wow! That was amazing. My hat's off to their dexterity, coordination, dedication, and not least of all sacrificing all hope of a sex life.I mean with anyone but their hands. |

Friday, November 16, 2007 8:17:20 AM Honestly, I'm not into "yo-yo-ing" or whatever, but I know I'd never be able to do that. I'd lose an eye or a uterus. |

Friday, November 16, 2007 3:48:34 AM Geez, you guys are being rather harsh. Those guys had some serious hand eye coordination skills, and were able to come up with unique, challenging, and fun to watch routines. What have you done lately? Oh that's right, your witty sarcasm towards people who actually have skills more than makes up for the fact your best efforts on a given day involve not defecating in your underwear while wasting hours on the internet. |
