THE most screen accurate whip EVER made...

Post by Shagbd »

THIS IS what we have all been waiting for!
many fans have searched far and wide for the most accurate whip... now you can purchase one for $15 at walmart!

This baby is as close as you will get to the Raiders whip!
It rolls out nice!
It cracks itself! (literally)
Notice the highly accurate turkshead and butt knots... !

Morgan, Strain, Nolan, Wickline, Del Carpio, Pagey, etc etc etc.... ALL of them are out of business now!

Man, I wanted to get me one of those, but the local Walmart stopped selling them. Maybe they're selling them again for Halloween. I better go shopping tomorrow!

The heel knot looks ok but the transition knot is a little suspect. It looks like there is an SD card slot on the handle. Maybe I could download one of Adam's Youtube videos, stick it in the handle, and use a whip like him :)

Darn I got "hosed". I spent $20.00 on that whip and it didn't come with the bonus DVD. :roll:

My son still gives this whip a fair amount of play but seems to prefer his 4' ebay whip a little better. We are still waiting on a custom nylon whip from Chris Hall.

I got one!!!

I found it really fun to play with, and I actually used it to put out a candle and timed the sound effect to go off when the candle went out 8)

It's cool that the plastic handle actually works out to being 12-plait.

The real rush is to be swinging a 'whip' around and have the Indy theme music playing while you do it :whip:
