How to Use Devil Sticks
Before you start
Hold one handstick in each hand with the index finger extended, pointing along the handstick.
The handsticks should be held parallel. When hitting the stick, do so with a lifting vertical motion. There should be almost no horizontal movement of the handsticks. Use the handsticks to lift, rather than swat the D-stick.
You should be lifiting the D-stick about 4"-6" from the top of the stick. The higher you hit it, the faster it will spin. All hits are above the center line.
Kneeling Start
1. 2. 3.
1. Rest the D-Stick between one handstick and the floor at an angle. Lift the D-stick with the handstick upwards, not inwards.
2. Stop lifting and the stick will rotate around its center. Catch the D-Stick with the oppisite hand stick.
3. Continue lifting the stick back and forth. You should be lifting the stick upward, not swatting the stick inward. This basic move is called the Tick-Tock.
