25 meters Henrys professional string

Item sold individually.

Henrys professional string for diabolo:

25 meter roll of thin and resistant diabolo string. Does not wrap around the diabolo.

The diabolo string wears out and it's quite normal. To improve the lifespan of your string, we advise you to be less violent and more extensive in your movements. Children who begin in this activity use their string 10 times faster than a professional. Just look at how much energy a child uses to accelerate his diabolo ;-). Imagine the amount of friction between the string and the diabolo. That being said, the Henrys pro string is more resistant than the default strings on the sticks.

However, if you use a fire diabolo, you will need to use Kevlar diabolo string (which does not melt and does not ignite).

NetJuggler advice and tips regarding the strings:

Why is the Henrys string the choice of professionals ?

The Henrys string is in our opinion the best, not for its colour, but for its fluidity. The friction on the axis is minimized. Avoid using it in a wet or dusty environment and you will increase its lifespan.

Informations for professionals:

When we ask Henrys, the manufacturer of the string, they say that every colour of string is identical, but we've been selling it since 2004 and the diabolists tell us the opposite. It seemed a good idea to convey to you the information provided by Alexis Levillon, an experienced diabolist, on the differences between the colours of the strings.

There's the list of strings from the one that sticks the less to the one that sticks the most:

• Yellow string - slides a lot, used rather for vertax tricks, it will take a little time before the hook is ideal.
• Orange string - slides less than the yellow one, it is the favorite color of most of the diabolists.
• Green string - sticks more than the orange one, it is usually the diabolists favorite practicing with several diabolos at the same time. Indeed, you will have to be able to speed up the diabolos quickly which will be easier to do with this string than with the yellow or orange string.
• White string - used by the diabolists who practice with several diabolos but also by the beginner diabolists who struggle to speed up their diabolo at the very beginning.

This information on strings is given only as a guide, but don't rely on it entirely because the choice of the color of the string is very personal and everybody has their preferences. If there are differences between each string colour, it's because the colours used will have an influence on the grip of the string fibers.

Set the string of your diabolo:

To practice the diabolo, the length of the string is really important. The length depends on your size and also on your preferences. There's no standard length !

That being said,for children a total length of string is from the foot to the shoulder. For teenagers/adults, one can take a shorter length of string: from the foot to the armpit.
To find the length you prefer, do several tests and, as soon as it feels great, keep it that way !

For what type of use ?

This string is intended for intensive use by experienced diabolists. It also suits beginners because they tend to use their string much faster than experienced diabolists and will therefore need a robust string.
