Hi! My name is Adria. I am one of the professional jugglers here at Expert Village.com. We are learning diabolo tricks. We have learned some simple ones; now we are learning some advanced ones. What we are going to learn now is the figure 8. We have learned several arm tricks. We have learned over the arm, place turning the right arm around like this and tossing the diabolo over the arm. We have learned over the other arm, turning the left arm and left stick like this, using the right arm to counter spin the diabolo and toss it in a way opposite that which is natural. We have learned over the forearms, which start within over the right arm and then immediately goes into over the forearm. We are now going to combine that same motion where we start with over the right arm, turn the left arm, but instead of popping the diabolo up all the way, we are going to pop it up only part way catching it in the middle which will take it over the left arm and down in the middle and then we are going to do the counter productive spin of allowing it to go on the string and popping it with the right arm and again it should land in the middle for figure 8 and here we go. Over the right arm, over the left, in the middle, over the right, in the middle and a drop. We will do it one more time. Over the right, over the left and in the middle, over the right, in the middle, over the left, in the middle, over the right, in the middle, over the left, in the middle, over the right, in the middle. That’s the figure 8.
