I did not make this one...but here is a Florida Cow Whip

The handle is extraordinarily heavy...like tearing a leg off the kitchen table and attaching a thong to it.
Ok not that bad, but almost.

That's most of them...

Post by Canuck Digger »

They're all roo's and most are pretty Indy-ish, but the 8 foot black one is nice. It was made with a lighter skin than what I normally use and the resulting whip is a bit of a lighter whip, but still very fluid and fun to throw.

Hi,

As far as I know most popular place where for whipboxing is Australia.
We got our own whipboxing tourments :) in Poland, heere is a video http://kiscienwhips.knives.pl/index.html. I can't find more photos, but if you want here: http://www.whips.pl/forum/index.php/top ... 7.150.html you can see "First Poland Whipcompetition" and you got one from whipboxing too.

More about whipboxing you will find here http://www.aussiewhipmaker.com/WhipBoxing.htm. There was a page whipboxing.com but it's no longer exist :(.

Rules in short:
- you need to hit oponent in face, which is worth 1 point.
- person who first take 3 points, win.
- you need to have to whips. They are tangle many times, it saves time, when we have new whips, and somoby try to untangle the old one

I think kooniu, or someone who knows rules better or maybe he fights sometimes could tell you more, maybe gives some more links.

And I got two 3,5 ft stock whips one 5 ft stock and new 10 ft with 12 in handle bullwhip. When I will have, I will attach photos.

Regards,
Karol

Here's a pair of "non-indy" bullwhips that I use in my show:

They were made by Paul Nolan and I love them. I highly recommend Paul's bullwhips!

DJN, those are sweet looking black whips.

I haven't even recieved my first real* whip yet and I'm already planning out my collection... I think my next one will be a 16 plait black whip. Then comes the stock whip. ANd by then, I'll get a matched pair of shorties for
two handed work. :D

My sword collection is going to suffer, isn't it? Maybe I should start writing westerns instead of fantasy (though I do have one whip weilding hero ;) )


*I grew up cracking various cow hide whips, but my first roo hide whip is on it's way.

These are traditional Mexican whips:

A chirrion (whip with a wooden handle and tapered rope thong):

Image

A chicote (flexible whip from end to end, made of braided rope):

Image

A chicote I made using wall knots... (Erick, here's the whip I talked to you about):

I'll post a picture of an old rawhide bullwhip I have, but that will have to be later. :?

Ok, so it's a pic of my Strain from Joe's website. But what the hay! After 3 falls and hundreds of crackers later, it looks exactly like it. And plus, Joe is a better photographer than me! Had it for a year now and crack it almost every day for an hour or so. Thanks Joe! :)

Post by Whip Basics »

and here I have one more precious thing. An english hunting whip
with a brass handle and a stitched keeper.

Image

It's from Victor SanSoucie's workshop.

It's something total contrary to the classic Indy whip, and it shows
what a far land the whip world really is. I'll post more whips by time.

Enjoy,
Robby

Long over due time you built yourself a website and threw your cap into the professional market Jim....I won't but I could mention a few so called professional whipmakers that are not to your standard...

Here's a 6 ft. Stockwhip by Joe Strain that I recently received. The color is whiskey, and it's a beautiful whip. I'll post more about in its own thread shortly.

Here are two more exclusive latigo whips, out of the workshop of Victor SanSoucie - if you're
interested... www.Handmadewhips.com

One in black, the other in two tone. And both have wooden handles, made out of Ebony wood.
The left one black Ebony, the right white Ebony.

Enjoy.

Another stocky from merry old England...? :) Looks great. Okay, the color is not exactly my cup of tea, but the new
owner will be happy with it. And if it just nearly handles like the brown/black obove, the new owner will be more than
satisfied! That braided keeper looks nice, by the way!

Good work, Tony.
Well, as always.

racerx, nice collection. Who made the black and red with the ring? That is a very nice looking whip!

Robby, your pictures of the Victor SanSoucie whips are very nice. It's hard to believe these are latigo. I also really like the stock whip by Tony. It just looks fast sitting there.

Tony, another nice whip!! And Robby, I know you secretly like the colors :lol:

Great photos, Great Whip! Keep them coming, just keep an eye on the size limits too :lol:

Here is a non-Indy bullwhip I picked up not too long ago, One of Terry Jacka’s, 8ft long 12plait, 13.5inch handled De Longis model bullwhips.
