Great looking whip!!...I must say though, I really like the look of that 8 footer....The colour is awesome!!...I don't know much about whips, but is the saddle tan an LC type?..

Nick, your whips have a very distinct taper, which I love. They seem to be bulkier at the butt and gracefully taper to the point.
Keep up the good work.

Beautiful whip.
Looks like your finger joints are starting to get the 'Morgan' look as well!
