Heh. I'm hoping that I might eventually /get/ good. But we'll see.

Currently I'm beginning to wonder if I've worn the string out. That 
would be rather alarming, considering I've had it less than a month. On 
the other hand, the handling seems to have changed fairly radically, and 
the string is now nearly black...

Yeah, for whatever reason I seem to be throwing at an angle. That's 
probably the problem. It's easy to correct when you're just holding the 
diabolo on the string. Not so easy to correct for while also throwing 
and catching it.
