SPRING!
That translates roughly to "TIME TO WHIP"!

I was out on Sunday, loosening up, going through the repertoire, trying a few new things.
Felt so good to be out in decent weather!

We have a minor setback this wed as we are supposed to get 10cm of snow, but hopefully it's gone again by the weekend.

"Only whips, no more woes
Cracking high
Cracking low
Was that a piece of my ear.....?"

Couldn't resist... Yep, dusting off the lovelys and getting them ready for some cracking! Bring on the warm weather! :TOH: \:D/

Fall hasn't shortened at all yet, I think I'm just more comfortable with the 8ft and now it's starting to feel like an extension of my arm rather than something unwieldy. Now, having said that, I'm no pro, but I feel very comfortable with the whip.

The other day was perfect here. I took a buddy of mine who has been dying to crack a whip to the park. We gathered a nice crowd. There is nothing like cracking a whip on a perfect day
