ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Diabolo

Diabolo is a fun game that involves a special toy, which looks like two plates stacked on top of each other with a pole in the middle. To play diabolo, you hold the pole and spin the plates by twisting your wrist.

Once the plates start spinning, the aim of the game is to keep them in the air while performing tricks like throwing the diabolo up in the air, catching it on the string and making it go back down. It takes a lot of practice to perform these tricks well.

Some people use special sticks to control the diabolo while others just use their hands. It's a great way to get some exercise and have fun at the same time!
