Diabolo and LED Props

DIABOLO

New technology and design has been lead by Sundis, working with diabolo designer Ryo Yabe. Sundia diabolos have pushed the design envelope over the last 5 years. In the past, diabolos were only made with a fixed axle and designed by toy companies with limited knowledge. Modern diabolos are made with a bearing axle that is fixed in one direction but can spin in the other direction, which has made many new tricks (e.g., x-caliber) possible. Many advanced tricks are only possible using a bearing-equipped diabolo. Sundia was leader in this development, though other brands have replicated their designs. For beginners, a fixed axel is still the easiest to start with. When you become proficient with a fixed-axle diabolo, you can move on to a bearing diabolo.

Diabolo hand-sticks have also seen a lot of improvements. The balance and weight of sticks are very important when doing advanced tricks. Most good-quality sticks are now short and made of carbon fiber. The string for a diabolo is specific to the kinds of trick you intend to do. The string, like on a yo-yo, needs to be changed often to continue obtaining high-performance results.
