December Whipcracking Practice in the park video
Posted: Sat Dec 08, 2012 11:12 pm
Jorgen made the trip from Vegas to the Pahrump desert yesterday to join us for a December Whipcracking Practice Session in the park, and Lauren put together a quick video of some of the highlights. Here is the link to the youtube video:

In the video you can see an array of cracks and routines including, but not limited to:
Cattleman's crack routine in balanced timing (Jorgen doing the two handed routine, the drum roll)
Slow figure 8's in various timing and combinations
Fine targeting work on both spaghetti and leaves
Volley's staggered and together timing
Long whip targeting
Blind Targeting on the bridge, AKA Targeting around a corner (where you can't see the target)
Staggered fast figure 8's
The coachman's crack
"The Each Way's," opposite slow figure 8's in Balanced timing (Lauren cracking with the leaves falling)
The Queensland Crossover
Changing Lead Hands Queensland Crossover
The Half Kahona
We had a great time, and also got to try out a few new whips including a new prototype I made of a line of whips coming soon (the whip used for the blind targeting), a prototype pair of extremely short 3ft Performance Hybrid whips (Lauren doing the staggered fast figure 8's), a nylon long handled bullwhip from Steph Normand of Whitenorthwhips, and a bullwhip that Jeremy "Riku1914" McEachern recently made. We had a lot of fun cutting leaves with both Steph's and Jeremy's whips, and below is a photo we took of the three of us goofing around with Jeremy's whip.
