The diabolo, or Chinese yo-yo, is a child's game that the Chinese have
evolved into an art form. The performer holds two sticks linked by a string
on which a plastic spool is juggled, tossed and balanced. Hypnotizing the
audience he tries to outdo each trick in this stunning game of dexterity
and ingenuity.

man carrying his diabolo, or "Chinese Yo-Yo". He performs a series of juggling
moves by tossing them across the revolving stage and seemingly impossible
uses of the ropes and spinning tops.
