Ahaaaa! I saw a little Winrich in there, and maybe some DeLongis spice, too. ;)

Very nice work! :clap: You look smooth, controlled, and appropriately restrained. :tup: Excellent!

Thank you! I've always thought control is much more impressive than sheer volume.

I couldn't agree more, very nicely done.

I'd say your volume (crack) wasn't half bad either....it's amazing what little effort it takes to produce a good sounding crack....nicely done.

Maybe your neighbors and my neighbors can form a support group. :lol: They could call it,"People with Crazy Whip Loving Neighbors Anonomous." :whip:

Yes I agree - nice control. I'm finding the same thing for myself as I get more practice. As I show people how to crack a whip I'm trying to help them not feel the need to crank out a powerful crack.

Also, let me know when the support group meets, I think my neighbors would want to be there! :P

Happy cracking, :whip:
