Here's a reply to Sylvia's video, giving some more detailed information on the sidearm flick and the underhand flick when combined with the cattleman's crack and the overhead crack.
Im rewatching all these videos ive seen 8 years ago. It got me started making my own whips and cracking them. These deserves to be revisited and remade with the present Adam
Great videos and great advice from this master! I ordered a whip on his recommendation from whips & what knots. Took three weeks for them to build my whip. I watched adams videos for the three weeks I waited, and when the whip arrived, I could crack it so loud my neighbors complained.
Ive made a few whips now. At first I thought I messed up during making. Nope. I watched your tutorial on the flick and couldn't get it. After I saw this video however I realized what my mistake was. And the whip is just awesome. I could do the cattleman and the overhead crack. now time for the coachman. Thatnk you very much man. big help[.
@rebelsouljaz If someone shows up to one of my shows in person, or arranges to meet with me in person, I'll be more than happy to give more than a few minutes of my time to show them something. Other than that, I actually stopped making whips because I got burned out making them for people that I knew nothing more about than their email address or a user name. The same thing goes for RU-vid videos.
@Ghostbusters102chats The last couple of vids were for a performer I know who's currently doing whips in a stunt show. She had already posted several videos and I found her enthusiasm inspiring. Other than that I'd recommend that beginner's either watch my other videos, or if they want more detail and much better video quality, buy my DVD off my website.
@ssh872 Nylon whips are great:) They work every bit as good as leather and they dont require any special care. They dont rot,rodents wont eat them,no contioning,and you can crack them when its wet out!
Am learning in all my motorbike leathers and helmet. Only draw back is I get very hot but it doesn't hurt when I whip myself and i've lost count how many times I've wiped myself. I'm just hoping nobody can see the mad man in motorbike gear waving a bullwhip around as I'm slightly worried the special bus is going to turn up at my house if I don't get the hand of it soon.
@Ghostbusters102chats there is a lot of video circulating on the web ,on youtube which are gonna learn to crack a whip.Already Adam has many of them teaching you a lot of moves ,very cleary explained,i propose you to watch his videos!there are also many other video which you can watch and trying to reproduce the moves!Also there is the other way like Adam told you ,you can buy his dvd where there you could learn even better!After is...training training training.it's the only way to get better!
@rebelsouljaz really!? Have you ever MET Adam? He is one of the most genuine, funny, and talented people I have ever met. Yet, I have never seen a single paysite, souvenir link, or t-shirt store anywhere on his site. He is a multiple Guiness World record holder yet still finds time to post some free videos on youtube. He is the exact opposite of a sellout, he's an educator.
@rebelsouljaz I don't think that someone who offers free videos on RU-vid for everyone to watch and learn from can be called a sellout. Besides, Adam does this for a living as far as I understand. Why should he give his hard work away for free? He does need to support himself, like we all do.
lol typical answer from a sellout, watch his old stuff or buy his merchandise otherwise he won't give you a few minutes out of his day to teach u more in depth
