w - there's probably a few places where spinning a diabolo is not permitted, or at the very least frowned upon. like... um, let's say... in a church during a service, or in an operating theatre during a particularly tricky brain surgery operation. not that I wouldn't be willing to try, mind...
Wendle says:
That's a small operating theatre; there's not enough room to spin a diabolo!
billion says:
w - I've found that it's surprisingly easy to diabolo in a small area. I often practice in my living room (which is tiny!) and I rarely knock anything off the shelves, although one time I accidentally knocked the big mirror off the wall!
Wendle says:
Well there goes my new turn of phrase.
Have you ever tried setting up some targets and trying to knock them off your shelves?
billion says:
ah, that would be just too easy. it takes skill to knock a big heavy mirror off a wall...

v - the pic was taken at 'nab end', a little spot overlooking airedale.
