ORIGINAL: mnottertail I will also point out that casual users should be circumspect and stay with the 3 to 4 foot whip, them 6-16 footers, while magnificent, not only tear the hide off of you, they are damn rough on the light fixtures, dressers and mommas picture in the average american bungalows bedroom. hopalong cassidy Oh no joke that! I remember giving the shorter one a go downstairs when I first got it and decided that out in the open field was definately my practice ground. Another thing that I thought of when considering where to practice. Not on concrete (the patio) because I certainly didn't want to be dragging the whips back across it and scaring them. The same consideration for gravel. Nor do I take them out into the yard when the grass is wet, even though they are well oiled I am sure that excessive moisture would not be good for them. My two whips are not of the best quality, they don't feel like they have been tightly braided enough. However they are good enough for me to get an idea. My thoughts were if I could get fairly decent with a relatively poor quality whip, once I got my hands on a good one I could really give it a go. The difference seems to be considerable coin and since I am not in no hurry to lay into human hide (cept for my own accidental owies) I may as well flail about with the less expensive things I got. Another thought, if a slave/sub should come along and really be excited about the idea......well then what better of a Christmas or birthday gift! In all seriousness, I don't have a burning desire to use one on someone, maybe yes maybe no. The satisfaction I get is rather like pistol target practice. Plus it is rather a good upper body work out.
