the Magic Knot

It is a trick which requires a little memory, to memorize the "knot". But well, is not necessary to talk cock, everyone can do it. Trève of false suspense, here is the trick: you accelerates a little the diabolo . You pass the right string behind the left stick. Then in the same kind of gesture, you pass the string under the diabolo, comming form the back of the diabolo. The string did one 8. Then you pass by again the string above the left stick (it is the right stick which carries out the string, like always), but this time, you don't cross the string, you makes it pass in front of the stick. Then you still goes down again under the diabolo, but by front this time. The string crossed the preceding one, this time.

En résumé, that sounds like: behind, behind, in front of, in front. OR behind, cross, not cross, cross. Here is the effort of memory.....

Then, you just have to drop the strings which are related to the left stick. As soon as these "folds" of string fall, the knot disappears ! This is why we name this trick like this. To make feel "more magic", one taps with the right stick on the left stick. In general, if you types too heavily in saying "ABRACADABRA!!", the strings fall and you really look like a magician.
