The 'Indy' whip reminds me of those £2 whips you get from joke shops. Someone bought me one when I was at university. Totally useless except for one thing - they make great cat toys. My cat loved chasing the popper and chewing on the cheap leather. There was enough spring in it to make it wriggle across the floor, or I could dangle it from the stairs and get him to jump up to catch it. After he'd shredded the whip down to the core (which was made from something like straw) I went out to the joke shop and bought him another one. Much better value than a lot of the cat toys on the market!

I have an old handmade bullwhip with true wooden handle which was braided by hand. It’s about eight to ten feet long and I’ve had it since I was a young man. I have always treated it with leather oil and after a small amount of bees wax to seal in the oil and to water proof it. It has a tongue at the end and does not taper to a thin end, it was made for cows and with a simple side handed lash it snaps very easy. I got it for fifty dollars from a friend who I asked to look for one for me and who found one and got it for a low price then sold it to me with a finders fee which was about twenty five dollars or half the price but I was pricing them and they started at a hundred dollars for a used one and that was just a estimate. Bull whips where hard to find in my day, it was not as easy as today and just going online and searching one up. The whips you buy today and for show and if you actually intend on using them extensively you will find they fray and brake easy. The one I have is a handmade authentic whip made by a whip maker years ago for farm use and cattle wrangling. P.S I use to practice by putting cloths pegs on a line and whipping them off one by one.

[@caliberwhips9595]

My parents bought me the cheap one when I was a kid that loved Indiana Jones. I learned how to crack with it but it was only one way it would work. Still, as a young kid it was perfect to play around with. My parents did what they could to make a young boy happy! Great memories

[@Jokuman357]

Thanks for the informative and entertaining video. For years Ive seen that Indiana Jones costume whip, wondering If it would work. Ive gotten a dogleash with some shoelace tied into it to crack, so I wondered that an actually whip shaped... whip wouldnt be so bad. Being a small town boy for all my life, I have missed out on all of Indiana Jones merch, so I was amazed to actually find the whip in a costume store when I was visiting the capital. I held from buying it, as It came with a crappy hat, that was too small, and I already had myself a brown fedora (Still do!). Finally someone tested It out for me, so that itch has been scratched.

You'd be surprised at how cheap of a whip can crack. The first whip I bought was a $25 Texas gas station swivel handle. Made in Mexico, 10 feet, looked worse than even the cheapest one you have. It was so inflexible that I could hardly do a cattleman's crack, but after just 30 minutes of constant practice I had it cracking over my shoulder hard enough to hurt my ears. Of course I had to do a weird "Start vertical and crack horizontal" whip to get it to do that and by the end of those 30 minutes I had worn the whip so bad that the center of the thong was fraying, and I was using as much force as a haymaker. But I could do it!

[@russtinkess1534]

I actually ordered one of those "$50 Amazon" whips and when it was about 75% of its way to me, it suddenly became "undeliverable" and was sent back. In the meantime, I saw this video and took your advice about looking on Etsy. (What a dangerous rabbit-hole...) It can be a little intimidating trying to find the artisans as the first few pages seem to be dominated by "star sellers' who are really just "Amazon-style mass-market vendors", but I continued the search a number of pages in when I noticed a brand new seller: 8-foot kangaroo hide "Indy" whip, decent price, AND a fellow Canadian. (Never hurts to support the home team.) So, I rolled the dice.... And, boy, did it ever pay off. Got my whip today and it is something else. This guy knows his craft. So, thanks for the Etsy advice. Took a few more bucks but it turned what would have been a mediocre purchase into something far more awesome.

[@user-yp7be3vz2e]

i had a 10 dollar whip like the cheapy you were using. It was pretty useless and I was blaming it on my lack of skill and training. then, I took it to a whipping seminar given by an experienced whip maker and he told me that it needed a stiffer handle to get it to work at all decently (which was a relief because I was hoping that it wasn't due to my being totally clueless). I made the handle with a piece of 1/2 inch drip irrigaton tubing that i covered with some black scrap leather, running the old handle inside the tubing and securing it at the heal. Subsequently, It served me well for about 10 years of occasional use then about a year ago, the leather was seriously decomposing so i retired it. I bought some fancier but still cheap ones (under 50 bucks each) but they didn't work as well as my modified but now retired, 10 dollar whip. Then, I tried making a paracord whip and compared to all the others (including my retired one), it's awesome. I'm sure I could do an even better job on my 2nd attempt but i'm not that ambitious (this first one seemed like it took forever to make and i was so sick of the videos I had to watch to learn how to do it. When it does come time to replace it, I will be buying one from you. I'm sure yours are great.

I needed a whip for a costume (not Indiana Jones), but still wanted it to work (I do not want to embarass myself by unfolding something rather crappy). From my former equestrian days, I never liked the long lungeing whips I had to use for groundwork. Consequently, I went with a short 1.20 m model. It is enough to do the job, but gets the look accross. Also, having not done this for over 10 years, I feel better with this. Will still do quite some practice, but it works very nicely. Got it on a Black Friday sale from etsy...nice leather, despite being a beginner whip, it is real leather and is nicely weighted. Any boy, you can make this thing crack. Thing I noticed is I have to practice my wrist technique. If done correctly, cracking is easy.

Ive seen people make paracord whips, they dont last forever, but, its something people can learn to make themselves, their own length, and its like maybe $10 for the materials, but you'll get a whip worth more if you take your time. Instead of people spending $10-$25 dollars and being disappointed, they could spend $10 and take time to follow a tutorial and make one that works the way they want it. Although i understand some people specifically want a real leather whip, which is valid lol I by no means could make a professional leather whip, but i could probably make a paracord one.

OK... ...so, I litterally know nothing about whips.

I have been practicing to become ambidextrous in everything now for almost 13 years. I do everything that you can think of, from writting to shooting to throwing baseball, etc. So, I wanted to revist the whip idea as I jusy feel that it may help me with improving my left handed baseball throwing. You know, when you throw, your body should move whip like... ...for best efficientcy. So I just felt like maybe I could gain something from working with an actual whip. I found what I think may be a decent whip on Amazon, for $34.99. At least, I can say, it is miles above that first whip that I found at the horse supply place. It is a 8 plait and is 6 ft in length. It is advertized as an Indian Jones Style Bull Whip. It is tan bonded leather and it came with two additional poppers. It is sold by LB's Whip Store. Now the reason why I am posting this info is, that I only briefly watched two very short KZbin video's for help and I only worked with the whip for maybe 15 to 20 minutes and I got the damn thing to crack nicely both left handed and right handed a couple of times using what I learned was the cattlemans move. So, am I currently happy with my purchase, yes. For $34.99 I feel that I may have stumbed upon a decent entey level whip that may get me interested enough to learn more about them and to eventually purchase a good one. Because of todays little success, I will definitely go back out to practice. Hopefully my little post here will help somebody.

And while I've gotten it to crack, I'd like to learn more cracks and with a better custom whip. While I appreciate your advice to find a novice whip maker, I'd rather go with someone I like. Like you! Please contact me so that we can discuss a good length, material and design to get me crackin'!

What are your opinions on victor tella whipmaker and his kangaroo whips

[@whipworks4468]

I haven't used any of his whips, the pictures look great on his website!

[@ronnetteharvey6781]

@@whipworks4468 I think pictures are like the Whopper. They take 3 days to get one good picture but once you get to the store and take your burger from the sack you find yourself looking around saying... WHAT HAPPENED?! That's why I watch videos like this one. It's so much better when you and others actually show us instead of only tell us. OH yeah! Much better.

Happy to hear it!

Great info on the whips, thanks. Can you quantify the “weight” characteristic I hear so much that makes the difference in a good whip. I had/have an old 10 footer, leather that I bought back in 1975. The fall finally broke off it, and the whip is a somewhat nodally, but I was always able to crack it with a side are through. Anyway, just bought a cheap $50 nylon replacement and it is much lighter and has a stubborn curl that I’m not sure how to use. Any instructions on how to use a brand new stiff whip? Thanks again for your video.

Man watching whip related content is a first for me lol but after being invested in this amazing content btw I noticed your voice sounds just like the character from Django unchained who was with the hooded k**nsmen who said "I think we all think the mask was a great idea, but... it could have been done better" lol

i bought an 80 dollar whip based off indiana jones for comic con and im nervous if the look will make my cosplay look cheap

Does a stock whip crack easier than a bullwhip?

[@whipworks4468]

It really depends on your style, both are easier to crack in different ways. I personally think that for a first timer, a bullwhip is easier to learn on

[@chriscarson6654]

Great video. I consider myself above entry level and have some whips on ebay that are not that expensive. Think the most expensive one is $140 but its a stock whip that has an extra thong. So not to bad

[@ItsEdSilha]

I’d want a bull whip why exactly?

[@JarSkull]

Any good whip makers ? Im entry-level i just want something durable, loud and fluid to swing

[@ronnetteharvey6781]

Wow in 7 months no one has answered you. I think I can help by telling you that in the video lots of references were made to where you could go get a decently priced whip, Etsy etc. The only other thing I discovered is that there are several whip makers in the comments. Hit em up! Don't know till you try.

[@scottbridge8664]

Hello I make what I believe the best whip ever made six or seven foot long one strand paracord 300 ft long no core no string no glue what you see is what you get weighted with BB's never tried any other whips would like to try a good one to compare how good mine are would you be willing to trade

[@whipworks4468]

Hey Scott, thanks for the inquiry! I'm currently not doing any whip trades at the moment. Do you have an instagram account? I'd enjoy taking a look at your work!

[@nicholasgarrett9696]

9:52 just for the sheer joy of it and in honor of the adventurous spirit lol. Who cares if you should, you're cool for doing it anyways 8D.

[@ezecreative]

My wooden handle part spins.. Is that normal?

[@whipworks4468]

Many less expensive bullwhips will have swivel handles, totally normal!

[@ezecreative]

@@whipworks4468 I just contacted midwest whips to look into their performance whips.. and yep, I did not pay anywhere near as much as what they charge, must be a reason. Thanks for the info.
