Juggling - Passing Clubs - the origins of Jim's 3-Count Rate Diabolo Tricks from 1 to 10 - PREFACE - Within this site are diabolo tricks I have acquired from several mid-US Juggling Festivals. Also included are tricks from my e-mail associations from other countries. Some tricks show a 'source.' Sources are where I first saw or who I first learned of the trick from. I've tried to keep some sort of standard for terms and relative direction and rotation. At this time the Terms page has several explanatory animations of basic moves. Your view of the animations is as if you were standing behind an invisible diaboloist while he/she performs the trick or as you would see yourself perform the trick. The Close-up animations are your view from above. The right stick handle near end is darker. The string end of the sticks are marked in green as seen in the Over-The-Arm, Minetti Whip, and a few other tricks. The Over-The-Arm will show an 'arm slice' and the Under-The-Leg will show a 'leg slice' which is where the string touches the body in those tricks. It is very possible there is an error within some of these explanations. Please e-mail me if you find one or have a suggestion for a confusing step. Some questions about diabolos and animation are answered on the Frequently Asked Questions page. Also send along any tricks you would li k e to share. I still have several tricks to add here, but hope soon I can add new tric k s as they come in. Hope you see something new, Jim Special thanks goes to Shane Geiger. Without his contributions of web space and information, this site could not be where it is today. Sadly, Shane passed away in 2011. The memory of Shane Geiger will always be with us. It seems like jugglers should never die, yet Shane is probably this moment, up there juggling the universe and the heavens for us. Thanks Shane, for all the computer help and your juggling inspiration. Special thanks to Mark Wilkening who has contributed much in HTML and Flash, instruction and ideas. Mark is the founder of the performing group, Throwing Picassos, an avid juggler/slack roper, occasional juggler of 7 balls, and a fine pizza cook. E-mail Jim with corrections, additions, or for added help. |) >< (| View My Stats Since October '99 (YEAH 3.5m!!! ) 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 0 - ! - @ - # - $ - % - ^ - & - * - ( - ) - j Facebook diabolotricks.com - ONE TRICK LISTING - TWO TRICK LISTING - FLASH Movie Controls...
