My 2 year old 'EL CHEAPO DELUXE' whip

Nothin fancy, just a $30.00 job I got on ebay 2 years ago. I was all set to prctice with it in my old back yard when I got it, but my next door neighbors called the L.A. county sheriffs on me, as they felt I was endangering their children by my practice...Nevermind that there was a 6 ft. high brick wall between me and them. But, the officers asked if I would stop and for the sake of peace, I complied. But, we moved in January to where we are now and my new next door neighbor is the ex mayor of the town and he doesn't have a problem with it. So, now I'm a crackin' fool !!! :lol:

Hi o-wj, Welcome to Indy gear and club Obi-Wan. Glad to hear you have a place you can practice with out any interruptions, it looks like your bullwhip has held up fairly well in the last two years, not bad for $30.

When I travel and have time to kill, I usually crack my whip at a park. I've had the police show up a couple of times over the years, and both times ended up teaching the police how to crack a whip.

You have to pity your ex-neighbors' kids. What kind of life do you think they have with parents like that?
That is a nice whip for the price.
