Topic: Chinese yoyo


  
 Chinese yoyo   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
The Chinese yoyo, marketed in the West as the diabolo (commonly misspelled as diablo), is the Eastern counterpart to the Western yoyo.
It is a traditional Chinese toy consisting of a spool which is whirled and tossed on a string tied to two sticks held one in each hand.
Large or heavy yoyos tend to retain their momentum longer, whereas small or light yoyos can be thrown higher and are faster to get spinning quickly.

 YOYO MA - A Classic Example of Asian American Artistry!
The magazine noted, "In a year of quite extraordinary diversity, the cellist YoYo Ma has shown that the boundaries of 'classical' music need not be restraining as he has vaulted spectacularly from classical cello concertos, to blue-grass music via a disc of tangos to a host of specially composed works featuring his remarkable talent.
YoYo Ma has created "The Silk Road Project," a new initiative aimed at exploring the cross-cultural influences among and between the lands comprising the legendary Silk Road and the West.
YOYO MA gave his first public recital at age 5 and by the time he was 19 was being compared with such masters as Rostropovich and Casals.

 Bernie DeKoven's FunLog: Chinese YoYo
Originally, the Chinese YoYo was made of wood or bamboo.
Today, as a result of modern technology, most Chinese YoYos are composed of two durable plastic wheels and a joining steel rod and constructed so that the center of mass is located precisely at the middle of the steel rod where the string pivots the YoYo.
