Diablos from Decathlon: Good options for newbie?

Interested to know if anyone has bought from Decathlon?

  • I'm a newbie looking for my first diablo to start. Decent quality without being to expensive. Something to grow into and pass to my kids (7 and 9 years-old).
  • First two from the left are their in-house Domyos brand. But the rest are 'Cirkao' brand (even some with a Henry's logo).
  • Not sure which to choose or perhaps better options elsewhere.

Looking for (wider) Axil tuning kits

Hi everyone!

I want to upgrade the Henry's Circus Diabolos in our Youth Club and am looking for replacement axils.

I know the ones from Akrobat but I know there are more.

There was a trader at the ejc2024 who sold some as well but I misplaced their contact.

Does anyone know any more options or remember the trader?

Thank you so much!

Edit: I asked in the WhatsApp group as well and got the answer pretty much immediately ^^ in case you are looking for the same thing:

There are the ones from Akrobat: https://www.akrobat.net/Diabolos/Zubehoer-66/Henrys-Tuning-Set-Ultralight.html

And the ones I was looking for by diabolonet.de Their webstore is down at the moment but you can contact them by phone to place an order.

Buy two diabolos

I played a lot of diabolo when I was a child but wanted to restart now. I would love to juggle with two diabolos at the same time. They should not have a fixed axis and I would like if they have inbuild LEDs to glow in the dark. I also would like to do vertex so the diabolos should be good for that too. How much should I expect to spent? Also I find it hard two buy 2 diabolos because everytime amazon sells only whole sets with two sticks, book, etc. I just want to have one time good Sticks and two diabolos. Do you have any recommendations?

Fixed axle diabolo

I'm relatively new to diabolo but I have learned some tricks. Just wondering if things like whip acceleration, vertex and suicides are possible on fixed axle. I always seem to run out of spin in the middle of a trick or the diabolo runs up the string like in an elevator.
