Diabolo game

1 diabolo has a long history in China. As early as the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Zhi wrote a poem "Diabolo Fu"; In the Song Dynasty, Song Jiang wrote a poem of seven words and four sentences: "A low voice, a high voice, and a loud voice pierced the night. There is a heroic force in the air, and no one has been in vain. " ; In the Ming Dynasty, Liu Dong and Yu Yi described the method of making and playing an empty clock (diabolo) in Volume II of Scenery of the Imperial Capital. In the Qing Dynasty, an old man sitting and watching wrote in unofficial history in Qing Dynasty: "There are so-called empty bells in children's toys in Beijing, that is, bells from other provinces. Bamboo tubes are used at both ends, pillars are used in the middle, and music is played with ropes. " Only the empty clock in the capital (referring to Beijing) is round and flat, with two wheels on one axis, and its sound is clearer and longer than that produced in other provinces. "When shaking, the posture is changeable, which makes the rope turn over and make actions such as" crossing the bridge ","throwing ","stringing around "and" grabbing the height ".Some games use utensils such as pot covers instead of single-axis diabolo. There are many skills to shake diabolo, such as "fairy jump", "chicken on the shelf", "waist twisting" and "flying all over the sky". Diabolo is a traditional acrobatic game of Han nationality in China, which is popular all over the country, especially in the north.

The structure, specifications, functions and raw materials of diabolo are different at present, and their classification is as follows:

(1) According to the structure of diabolo, its types are as follows:

1, single diabolo-a shaft is connected to a tone wheel;

2. Double-headed diabolo-the two ends of the shaft are respectively connected with the sounding wheel;

3. Double-shaft diabolo-one shaft is connected to both sides of the center of the sound wheel;

4. Diabolo in the building-whether it is single-headed diabolo, double-headed diabolo or double-axis diabolo, it is a diabolo in the building that connects multiple tone wheels (more than two), such as single-axis diabolo (currently added to the ninth floor at most); Double-headed building (currently up to 12 floors): double-axis building (currently up to 3 floors).

5. Diabolo on the ground axis-a stick passes through the center of a sounding wheel, and there is also a string and a perforated bamboo board.

(2) According to specifications: there are hundreds of specifications, the smallest diameter is only 2 cm, and the largest can reach more than 40 cm, but the diabolo (practice or performance) often used is generally 10 cm to 13 cm. Too small diabolo can practice skills; Diabolo can practice arm strength, waist strength and leg strength. (3) Classification by raw materials is as follows:

1, diabolo with bamboo and wood structure: it is a combination of thick bamboo poles and wood, which is the most traditional practice. Its advantages: nice voice, its disadvantages; Poor strength and easy to damage.

2. Plastic steel, plastic-wood diabolo: Due to the development of modern science and technology, new materials, such as ABS engineering plastics, are adopted and then connected by metal shafts or wooden shafts. Its advantages: the quality is basically the same: the service life is about 3 times that of Ningzhu with bamboo-wood structure.

3, glass fiber reinforced plastic (epoxy resin+glass fiber cloth) and wood diabolo:

Its advantages: loud sound, high strength, good toughness and long service life, which is generally 3 to 5 times that of bamboo and diabolo.

4. Diabolo with plastic+metal structure: made of rubber or modified plastic and connected with metal shaft. Its advantages are: it is not easy to be damaged and has a long service life, but it is silent (produced abroad). Although it is produced in China, it is very small.

(4) By function:

L, practice performing diabolo: diabolo with general specifications.

2, crafts diabolo: it has two functions, can be shaken to play, you can watch and collect.

3. Electronic Diabolo: There are colored lights and music when shaking.

Diabolo play: put diabolo on the ground and hold a rocker on each side. Hold the rod in your right hand and wrap the rod line around the diabolo twice counterclockwise. Then lift it gently with your right hand to make diabolo rotate off the ground. After turning a circle, there is still a circle of lines in the groove, which can keep shaking your hands up and down. Diabolo will turn faster and faster, and when it turns to a certain extent, the bell will buzz. Diabolo is easy to learn, but it is not easy to play well.

The common ways of playing diabolo are: "chicken", that is, after diabolo turns sharply, it is unwound and thrown away, and then caught with a wooden stick, so that it can roll on one stick or turn to another. "Flying all over the sky", throw diabolo into the air, then catch it with a rope or throw it again. "Fairy jump" means stepping on the middle end of the rope with your feet, making the diabolo rotating on one side of your feet jump from the instep to the other side, and jumping back and forth on the ropes on both sides of your feet. "Pay-off", only single-tube diabolo is suitable for this method, that is, put one end without tube on the ground to make it rotate, and when its speed slows down, rescue it and shake it. In addition, such as The Wind Drills the Lotus Leaves, Big Shares, Cucumber Rack, Ring Three Bells, and Butterflies. These movements are dexterous, agile and clean. In addition, it can also evolve from shaking diabolo to shaking porcelain pot cover, shaking pot cover, shaking Dulu and so on. Later, the old artists developed cross-transmission techniques such as "one-sided leg", "two-sided leg" and "waist string", and they can also perform the stretching of the rope, so that diabolo can rise vertically along the rope from bottom to top. They can even shake three diabolos at the same time.
