This is my very first whip, and I have to say that it cracks really easily. I have to wait 'till tommorrow to crack it in though...
The ears of my neighbors are everywhere. :[ (<--- just normal paranoia)
Giovanni, you did a great job on this one! I love the color and I love the shape... It's a great whip!

best regards,
Lukas

Well let me say it is beautiful. What is the name of the color? It also looks so thin at the end of the thong. Is it very fast?

It's natural tan with a coat of shellac. As far as I know the shellac comes off while cracking the whip... As for the end of the thong, I'm not a whip expert, but as far as I can tell it's quite fast. :lol:
