I FINALLY found my Indy video :)

Post by Ravenswood »

A couple of years ago, my roommate videotaped me in full Indy Gear *minus the gun* as I tested out my newly received Russel Schultz Indy Style whip. To the trained eye, my inexperience will speak volumes, but I think it looks rather indyesque the way I'm man-handling the thing, lol!
At the time, the whip was at its full ten foot length, but it didnt take me much time at all to shave it down to nine. The finish point on was soooo miniscule, it being a 12 to 8 plait, and no core strands to speak of in the fall hitch. BUT I have since gotten more used to these finer whips, and have refined my routine quite a bit :wink:
Please enjoy!

What the neighbor said:
"Come ON! The more you're doing that, you're upsetting my dog!". One of the great dangers of archeology.... #-o
