General
What is Lakeshore Diabolo Club?
Lakeshore Diabolo Club is a diabolo club for Duluth, MN. We bring together players of all ages, from first-timers to experienced players. Beginners, families, and competitors are all welcome.
Is there a membership fee?
Meetups are free.
Do I have to compete?
Not at all. Most people come to play, learn tricks, and have fun. Competing is up to you.
Meetups
When and where do you meet?
Every 1st Sunday, 2–4 PM. We meet at Harborview Community Center, 200 Lake Ave, Duluth MN. Come and go anytime during the meetup.
Do I need to RSVP?
No. Just show up. If a meetup is ever cancelled, we post it on this site and our social media as early as we can.
What should I bring?
Nothing. We bring loaner diabolos and hand sticks to every meetup, so you don't need to bring anything. Wear comfortable clothes you can move in.
Can kids come?
Yes! All ages are welcome. Younger kids should come with a parent or guardian, especially the first time.
Getting Started
Do I need to know how to play?
No. Total beginners are just as welcome as experienced players. We'll get your diabolo spinning on the first day.
What diabolo should I buy?
Try a few loaners at a meetup first. A medium-size diabolo with soft cups and a pair of basic sticks is a good start, and our members can recommend one for your budget.
How much space does diabolo need?
More than you'd think. Tosses go up, so we play where the ceiling is high and there's room around each player, away from lights and windows.
Getting Involved
How do I become a member?
Just come to a meetup. There's no sign-up. If you show up, you're part of the club.
Can I volunteer?
Yes, please. Email hello@example.org or talk to us at a meetup. We always need help setting up, greeting newcomers, and running activities.
Can my organization partner with the club?
Yes. We're open to venue partnerships, demos, workshops, and sponsorships. Email hello@example.org with your idea.
