INCLUDED IN THIS SET IS 1X CYCLONE QUARTZ DIABOLO (select colour above), 1X PAIR OF ALUMINIUM DIABOLO HANDSTICKS (with length of string) & a Firetoys Drawstring Carry Bag.

Cyclone Quartz Diabolo:

The Cyclone Quartz is a medium sized, triple bearing diabolo. Like the Sundia Fly and Shining, the Cyclone Quartz diabolo uses a wide axle fitted with a one way bearing, making finger grinds and long complicated string tricks much easier to complete due to its prolonged spin time.

A flashier brother to the original Cyclone, the Quartz boasts a firmer cup that allows even faster, longer spin times. It also looks great with an LED kit.

As you can only spin the diabolo in one direction some people find it easier to learn with. It is also much easier to get the diabolo spinning really fast as you can wrap the string a couple of times round the axle without fear of tangles.

There are, however, a few downsides:

1. Unlike conventional fixed axle diabolos the axle will need replacing once the bearings wear out.

2. Elevator tricks (magic string climb) are impossible.

The triple bearings on the Cyclone are smoother and quieter than the single bearing Fly diabolos. The Cyclone is great value choice for those who want a medium sized, one way clutch diabolo.

Aluminium Diabolo Handsticks:

These Aluminium Diabolo Handsticks are based on the hugely popular Henry's Aluminium Diablo Handsticks but are made in China. The body of the handstick is short and made from polished aluminium just like Henry's.

The aluminium is good quality and can take the same punishment as other aluminium hand sticks. The grip isn't as comfy as other aluminium sticks on the market but it certainly does the job.

The string fixing system is slightly more advanced than the standard hole system. The string passes straight into the top of the handstick and comes out a few centimetres down on one side. This essentially removes the knot from the top of the stick making some new moves possible and others easier.

All in all, a good, durable short handstick.
