Diabolo Tutorial 17: The Whip

To practice this tutorial, you will need to know how to speed up your diabolo. You should also be comfortable with throwing and catching your diabolo before attempting this trick.

This trick will require precision. 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, don't hesitate to watch the first ones if you don't feel like 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. It is also possible to perform 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.
