I have a 10' Del Carpio- its a awesome whip. I have a 29'2" Louie Foxx whip-its a howitzer, and I am not talking a 105, its more like 155!!! Now you have a real hard choice to make!!!! Go for it!!!!

bobm2004

That is just sick!!! Looks like it should be a weapon in the next Marvel Comic Villain movie! It was cool. Nicely done!!

bobm2004

With some new technology recently installed in my home, I was just able to watch that video on the 50" plasma and the surround sound system! Outstanding!!!!

bobm2004

Just came in from the shop, helping one of the twins with a school wood working project, flipped on the TV and to my pleasant surprise a classic, Raiders of the Lost Ark! What a great good guys versus bad guys movie!! And of course the movie that almost single handedly brought the art of bull whip c...

bobm2004

Bernie those are both amazing whips!!! Truly functional art!!

bobm2004

Loving it!!! Very creative!!!

Shall I send the 29.5 footer back for a try at it!

bobm2004

That is a great looking whip-it is going to be awesome! I know, I have one!!

bobm2004

Now that is awesome!!! Very clever!!!

I wonder if forum friend Adam Winrich can get a new worlds record for the most whip cracks while doing a one handed hand stand???

Itch Scratched!! I now have a Nolan! A nice Indy style 10 footer obtained right here from the Cairo Bazaar. Yea Team!!!!

bobm2004

When in doubt, buy both, that is my motto!

bobm2004

Very nicely done-I love whips that have patterns like this!

bobm2004

I too just acquired the fast figure 8! Now to practice the heck out of it so I do not forget it! I had my best luck with it so far using a Bernardo 10 footer!

bobm2004

I want a new whip!! I bet that whip is LOUD!!

bobm2004

At the request of several members and due to the fact that we now have a digital video camera, I went out tonight and took a video of me playing with some of my long whips. In the video is my 12 foot Joe Strain (aka The Black Mamba), my first ever whip a 14 footer from Adam Winrich (aka the Brown Br...

bobm2004

Louie-the whip is totally outrageous-and yes heavy, but when you get i to roll out perfectly it cracks like a canon!! And its the heavy part that makes it like 8 or 10 throws and then your shoulder says hey, "that's enough-hows about a nice 6 foot stock whip"!! I went out about an hour aft...

bobm2004

.......for a new whip!! My most recent acquisition, although extremely satisfying to crack, cannot be handled for more than a few throws. It was a 29 foot 2 inch long whip I obtained from forum friend Louie Foxx and as I said a great whip that yields a canon shot of a crack, but very difficult to do...

bobm2004

The new record is:

513!!!!!!

I must say I am truly lucky member here. Years ago I was befriended by our forum friend Adam Winrich and am extremely lucky to have had him as a guest at my home, but more than that each year I get to see him preform every weekend at the Bristol Renaissance Fair. Last week Saturday Adam went for a n...

bobm2004

I hear and feel exactly as you do. I especially love those days when you get in the zone and the cracks flow!! I of course blame my addiction to this hobby on Mr. Adam Winrich! Why did he have to be so nice to me years ago, and then sell me my first whip? He took the time to show me how to use it, t...

bobm2004

Those looks great Bernando!! And as with all you do I am sure they will be a superior product at a value price. So do you think you could make an 18'?

bobm2004

Well, how does it crack? Looks like a million bucks!!

bobm2004

Just showed it to my wife-she wants one for our dogs!! Outstanding!!

bobm2004

That is sweet looking!!! But it cracks like thunder!!

bobm2004

You go to love it!! Bernardo makes good whip!

bobm2004

That is really a cool two tone whip!!

bobm2004

That is a nice per of whips!! Hazah!

bobm2004

I have o say I am drawn to the unusual and a handl made out of a ray is just toooooooooo cooooooooool!!!

bobm2004

Two years ago this coming June I meet Mr. Adam Wirich for the first time. After watching him preform, I was on the whip thing like a kid on a loose quarter!! All things after that are a direct result of that first meeting! So yesterday I got a package. Today I go get the stuff I needed to complete t...

bobm2004

Very nice vid-looks like it rolls out real sweet!

bobm2004

Wow! I think that sums it up.

I too have been addicted to this hobby fro about two years thought I had a collection, but I bow to the king!

bobm2004

DarrehHenery-I enjoyed the new shots extremely clear and sharp! And a few posts back, I also like your video of the DeLongis move - gonna try that one tonight!

bobm2004

Sweet Jacka!! Those are some super nice whips!!!

bobm2004

AH ye old package day, with an international shipping label! Gotta love it when things come from afar!

I too own a 10' Bernardo and when I am "in the zone" it just sings in my hands.

Looks like you have a fantastic new treasure, now enough posting and go crack it!!

bobm2004

Looks like its nice and heavy at the transition, bet cracks super easy! Great looking whip!

bobm2004

Sorry to hear that and here is hoping for a speedy recovery. But lets not forget about nor lose sight of the real victims here-your whips. They will be neglected, unused and probably aching to crack. To help rectify this horrible, tragic situation and as a complete 100% unselfish act on my part, I w...

bobm2004

Hey!!! My very first whip that I ever cracked was a 14 footer. I learned the side arm, cattlemans and the overhead with it before getting a shorter whip!! I find 6 foot whips to light!!! 8 footers are okay, but where I seem to like it is in the larger area. I have several 10's, a 12, a 14 and a 22.5...

bobm2004

I happened to pick up this beauty, a 12 foot, 12 plait monster of a whip that I have named the Black Mamba after the large deadly snake from Africa. I have had only one chance to crack as it is the dead of winter and I hesitate to take it out in the snow, but come spring watch out. As has already be...

bobm2004

What an outstanding post!!!!! A treasure chest full of information!!! Than you a ton for putting it all together!!!!!

bobm2004

Sweet!!!

bobm2004

Paul- WOW! What a historic set of whips and thank you for sharing. I have a few questions: 1. Can these whips be cracked or are they more along the lines of historic treasures that should be displayed only? 2. Have these whips been treated or conditioned sense you have had them? 3. Are there reserve...

bobm2004

I bet that felt excellent to take the whip and crank through a routine!! Totally awesome story!!

bobm2004

Adam let me have a crack at one of his chainmail whips, a 6 footer I believe. It was like throwing a brick, it was pretty heavy and, in my opinion, none of the usual characteristics of a roo whip. It simply few out there, cracked hard and tugged at your arm-so much weight of all that steel. And you ...

bobm2004

I to have Western Stage 6 footer and it is hard to crack with a forward flick, it is very very light and harder to get to roll out as say easily as a roo hide whip of the same length. the advice given here by winrich, mcfly and others is the best you will find around. Just practice, practice and pra...

bobm2004

How sweet is that!! What a great illness you have!! This stuff is contagious!!

bobm2004

To answer the question of what they are, from left to right: 1. 6 foot Jacka Stock whip - black 2. 6 foot Jacka Stock whip - red 3. 12 foot Joe Strain whip - black 4. 5 foot Russel Schulz stock whip part of matching pair 5. 5 foot Russel Schulz stock whip part of matching pair 6. 7 foot Jacka stock ...

bobm2004

Was we all know, package day is the greatest!! Over the last few weeks I have received a few new whips so, its time to share!! First up, one new one old by Mr. Terry Jacka. I had him make me one red one awhile ago and I wanted a matching one in black. The reason for the red and black is because of m...

bobm2004

We recently have redecorated our third bedroom and have turned it into a guest room using several nice earth tones. The walls are bare. Believe it or not I asked my wife if I could have the room double as my whip display room! I stressed that most of my whips in addition to being very functional wer...

bobm2004

Adam and others-I mentioned this to my wife for her opinion. Her caution to all is never heat wax directly as it can catch fire-this from her candle making experience. She suggested electric roaster or a double boiler, but not a roasting pan over direct flame. Just a safety tip. Just thought I would...

bobm2004

I won them both....................................................

Yea Right!!! That is over the top! The thing that really gets me is that the new owner, after spending that kind of money, will be reluctant to crack it!! Which in my opinion would be a real shame!!
