9 foot, 16 plait Custom Nylon Bullwhip Test Cracking

9 foot, 16 plait Custom Nylon Bullwhip Test Cracking Video Clips. Duration : 0.62 Mins.


Here is a 9 foot, 16 plait bullwhip custom made for a local cowboy and leather craftsman named Jeremiah. This whip has a shot loaded core running the full length of the plaiting, multiple bolsters and is overlayed in: red, navy blue and black paracord. It features a 12 inch (Australian style) handle giving the user excellent leverage and control. Something special about this whip is that is has two falls. At 0:12, you can see the first fall is connected with a basic fall hitch. At 0:15, you can see the second fall attached via a "cowwhip style" fall hitch. Having two falls presents a few benefits, but the main two being: a better taper and not having to replace the fall connected with a traditional fall hitch as often. This whip was part of a trade between him and myself.
