So this is how Janine Fraser and Lauren Wickline started!

Post by Marhala »

While uploading some videos to Youtube, I found the cutiest thing on Earth! There's this little girl who has made many of her whips out of rope, suede, duct tape, etc. :)

It got me thinking about the old days back when I was 6-7 years old and I would steal anything my dad had at hand, to make a whip to play myself. :lol:

I bet some of the professional whipmakers out there have had a similar start. I can even imagine Lauren as a child doing something like that. ;-)

So, imagine her in a couple of years, in case she really goes for whipmaking. I just thought it is very nice to see someone so young, having such a determination for making things happen. :notworthy:

Enjoy.

"And another whip... I made it... it doesn't crack well..."

She has alot of determination for her age.

Surely, she wasn't making a purposeful satire of Adam Winrich's video of his whip collection was she? Too funny if she was doing that on purpose...
