ok so first of all, No i am not silly enough to want to try FireWhip just at the moment, but i would really like to learn some whip moves, what you can do with them, where (in new zealand) you could get one from, any videos on moves, what can be done with them and the like.

would be really good if anyone could tell me a wee bit about were i could look at some proformances and moves or something like that smile

Cheers hug weavesmiley

you can buy books and videos on the basics of whip use in your area, more than likely.

mmmm.... whipped cream..... mmmm dam it now i want an ice cream. where did that come from? mmmm ice cream

yeah i might go and check out the liburey and see what they have. theres not a whole lot of that kind of stuff in nelson. the only place that i no of would be the kite shop, but they'v sort of closed down. still and all gretchen is my bellydancing teacher so it might be worth asking her next time i see her.

if anyone does no of any good sites or info i would still really like to hear....

*wonders off to go and look for icecream...*

There is a site somewhere that has the basics of bullwhip cracking, which are fairly easy to translate across to a stockwhip. I can't remember exactly what it is, but bullwhip-faq.com seems to spring to mind. Good luck smile

You can get a stockwhip (non-fire) from Juggleart in melbourne, i paid $60 for mine. They do mail order, but i dunno what it'd cost to get it to NZ.

*thinks*

I'm guessing there isn't a terribly great number of cattleyards around where you live? You could go there and ask if you could have a try at cracking a whip, get shown how to do it. Or come to common ground, and i'll show you tongue
