The Duke of Whips

Just got my new Robert Duke 10' Indy whip and I LOVE it- Below is the Email I sent him after buffing out my arm cracking it - the em says it all. I only post this incase anyone is thinking about moving into a fine quality whip without paying the price of a used car.

My EM to Robert Duke-
OH MY GOSH! What an amazing gift you have. Robert - The second my hands touched this handcrafted whip I knew I was in possession of a work of art, even more - a labor of love. Even with the slightest flick of the wrist this whip responds like a fine sports car cut loose on the autobahn. I can not begin to express how thrilled I am to have finally completed assembling my Indy Gear with your creation. As soon as I complete my "Fan Film" I will send you a copy with your name proudly ensconced in the credits. Thank you for doing such remarkable work and being a part of helping me realize a long term dream.
Crack On.

As another proud owner of a Robert Duke 10 footer I know how you feel.

Your right about that Langpuss. Mr. Duke is certainly a great individual to work with and very informative about any questions you may have on the making or progress of your whip. Thanks for mentioning that.

It seems we all agree that R.Duke is a real swell guy. I really enjoyed staying in touch with him as he carried my whip to term.
