Diabolos

Fascination Diabolo

For thousands of years the diabolo has been fascinating people all over the world. Today diabolo-artists use 3, 4, or even 5 diabolos for their impressive tricks. The further development of our products is inspired by the way diabolo artists refine their skills – better and better, always red-hot..

Balancing Act meets Technical Refinement

The half-shells of our diabolos are developed for very long runtimes. Manufactured with the highest possible precision they rotate vibration-free. They are perfectly balanced and provide the maximal moment of inertia at minimal weight. Our specially developed material mix is the secret of our sucess. As far as elasticity, shape accuracy and abrasion resistance are concerned, this material is highly superior to usual plastic and other common materials.

Diabolo half-shells by HENRYS are free from plasticizers, physiologically safe and practically indestructible.

Diabolos with Freewheel Hub

Diabolos with freewheel hub become more and more popular among players. Fast drive and so much longer running periods leave time for more elaborate tricks. Moreover, ball bearings make it easier to learn diabolo playing. Many new tricks wouldn’t be possible without this technology.

The Technology

The freewheel axle “Free Hub” consists of two special ball bearings and a freewheel hub, which is enclosed by a wide roller and the two ends of the axle. The diabolo is easily propelled by this freewheel hub and thus running free on the string in one direction – like a bicycle without back pedal. This unique construction protects easily soiled components, making them run smoothly and quietly for a long diabolo-life.

Users test. We create..

We obtain opinions for all HENRYS products. Our diabolos are checked and tested by numerous performers: Beginners, as well as worldwide-known professionals, young and old people, children and adults. This starts with random sampling and goes up to long-time product applications. We transform their feedback into knowledge for even better products. This is why HENRYS is in a position to offer individual made-to-order products to each performer.

All our diabolos will be delivered with an insruction booklet including a lot of illustrations.
