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.

You are going to learn how to do throws in a tie, it is a trick where one throws the diabolo. While it is in the air, we pass the string around our neck and catch the diabolo on the string , diabolo which bounces there one or several times.

You should therefore already be a little used to practicing the diabolo to learn this trick.

We have made a whole series of tutorials of 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 achieve 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 see it better on the screen than a real diabolo string.
