It's like riding a bike, you don't forget it :whip:

Is that an 8 footer of yours?

Very cool! It's always a great feeling cracking a whip after a long break.

Cheers,

Yes - one never really forgets!
And yes, it's an 8ft of my own that I kept - needs breaking in, so I should get back out there! :whip:

I'd also love to see more videos of folks using their whips - I'll try and put a longer video out soon!
Thanks, Stella - somewhere I still have a great pic of you cracking one of my whips at Wested Leather many years ago! I can't remember who it belonged to - maybe Jason?
