I’m trying to find a set of these to purchase but am not having much luck.. Anyone have a set they’d be willing to sell? Thanks
What causes this fraying? The string is pretty new and not heavily used. Are there any Tips where it comes from or how to prevent it?
Stats:
- Size: 1.5x1.7cm
- Weight: 12.4g
- Material: Titanium alloy
- Brand: TiTo(China)
- Price: 14USD
Review (from my personal view):
- What’s good of it:
+ Well-designed: It’s not so unique, but it’s easy to mix with several strings and it still has the finest looking among other sets in the same range of price. Love the colors.
+ Playing experience: it’s small and heavy so the momentum works well and it’s also easier to perform tricks as it won’t get stuck between the fingers.
+ Easy to own one: It’s available on Ebay and AliExpress(im not sure if it can be found on Amazon). With a reasonable price, there’s no problem with odering one.
- But, Is it perfect? Nuh uh, here’s why:
+ Colors flaking off: the seller assured me that the color would not fade or flake off while playing. But just after 10m playing, the paint on the bottom started flaked off badly, kinda disappointed in this. (This problem was only witnessed on the surface of the bottom)
+ Bad durability: once again, my experience with this set was totally different from what the seller had said, the surface was battered so much (the dents were not so deep that u wouldn’t realize by glancing at the surface).
Rating:
- Design: 8/10 | Pretty good, maybe the best in range of price.
- Playing experience: 7/10 | Everything was alright.
- Price: 8.25/10.
- Durability: 6.75/10 | Kinda disappointing, main reason why i returned this to the seller.
=> Overall: 7.5/10 | If u don’t have enough budget for highquality sets from TGP, Aroundsquare, or MonkeyFinger… but still want to try a titan, good looking one, this set is for u.
My Twisters have been redesigned. One bearing now instead of two. The other bead maintains the same shape as the bearing bead, and both beads even weigh the same. Not exactly sure when I'll release them, but I thought you all would appreciate the video.
I started my Begleri practice around a month ago so I'm still a noob. I learned a few basic tricks already, I can do them consistently but I have a weird issue and it bothers me because it happens with almost every trick. Basically with every "loop" of the trick in the sequence my Begleri starts slowly going off the proper vertical axis to the point it starts swinging diagonally and then I fail to repeat the move because I can't correctly catch it. It's fine the first few moves but then it spirals out of control and I can't seem to fix it. I tried moving my fingers differently, more wrist moves, trying to catch the Begleri differently but it's still happening. Begleri just doesn't want to listen to me and it always starts going "in its own direction".
It happens with both hands btw. Is that just a matter of practice? Will it correct itself during the grind?

What is the best source for 550 Paracord? Is Paracord Planet typically preferred? Im new to Begleri and want to try making some of my own. I have a few sets from Aroundsquare and I really like their Paracord but don’t know the source. Thank you all in advance!
Just me randomly throwing my begleri around to show you what it's like lol
Not as cool looking but easy to make and work rather well.
I made a begleri and I'm finally playing with it but the two nuts on the end keep hitting my hand and it hurtss. Should the ends also be bigger so they're easier to grab?
I might burn off the ends when i finally feel comfortable with the length but those knots took me forever 😭 so much undoing
I keep seeing the standard length for a begleri is 6 inches but if my hands are small (fingers outstretched 4-4½ inches) should i make my begleri that length instead?
Hi there,
I got into begleri about 2 months ago, and I’m really loving it!
I was always looking for something to play around with when I'm just existing somewhere, and I finally found it 🙂
I started with a monkeyfist and quickly got my mini Titans and mini Hydras from Aroundsquare. They look so nice and play so well <3
So far, I’ve learned what I think are the basics:
With that set, I have quite a bit of fun mixing it all together. I’m very much a beginner still, and I want to improve. Overall, I like to combine everything and keep up the momentum.
Do you guys have any suggestions on what I should focus on? I feel like rolls are pretty nice; they look amazing if you can do them consistently. They’re also really hard to learn.
I’d be very happy for any suggestions or resources if you have some 🙂
Just a heads up: AroundSquare's October launch is today 10/25, 6 PM for Email Subscribers and 7 PM for general public, PST. All sorts of new goodies in this latest drop so make sure to check it out!
Happy fall !!! And slinging ;)
Oeps I need to refrase my question 😂 I know that the circle ones are kombois. What I wanted to know is what these kinds are called 😜(the ones with multiple beads) Thankss
Question: I bought a couple of begleri’s one made from 2 lava stones and two others with multiple beads. Now I just want to know what the ones with multiple beads are called. I saw a guy on yt call it prison style begleri’s but I only found that one video if I search for this syle. Also for the measurements for these, do i need to measure from the most inner beads?
Early thankss !!

Hey all, I just learned about begleri a few days ago, but I've been a pen spinner since about 2010 so it instantly grabbed my attention. I just wanted to share some of the sets I've built over the last few days. Included are the weights of each individual "bead" in grams. They were prototyped from top to bottom using various YouTube videos. While the monkey fist is by far my favorite, the bearings I had were way too big.
Doing 6 sets over these last few days helped me dial in my my preferred length and weight. I've been learning the long game with plans to learn short with a figure eight knot. The bottom 2 are my current go-tos but I've got an assortment of ball bearing coming tomorrow to I'll definitely have a few more monkey fists. Feel free to leave me some feedback
Note: I also learned all these knots within those few days, the toughest part to me is merging clipped ends of cord lol. Thankfully I've got about 5000ft laying around.
Made my first paracord nunchucks Don't know how to play with them
