(Pictured above: 5ft 12 plait Australian
Style Bullwhip with custom knots and custom color white thong).
These beautiful and highly
functional whips were designed with the serious whipcracker in
mind. The longer handle provides extra leverage for learning and
executing everything from the simplest cracks to fancy advanced
bullwhip routines. This style of bullwhip is very popular in
Australia (hence its name) where stockmen and sport whip crackers have
been practicing and perfecting the art of whipcracking for
centuries. Lightly weighted and perfectly balanced so you can
crack all day long without tiring. This style of whip is also
particularly well-suited for precision target work. Standard
handle length is 10" (12" is also available upon special request at no
extra charge), and standard butt knot is a 6/7 turkshead knot.
Length is measured from base of butt knot to the end of the braided
thong (does not include the fall or popper).
Please choose from our standard colors: natural tan, saddle tan,
whiskey, brandy, or black. For unique colors or two-color whips
or knots, please email or call us for a quote.

5ft - A
precision target whipcracker's dream come true. This length is
perfect for shredding newspapers, slicing playing cards, or even
shattering flying poker chips tossed up into the air (yes, we've
done all of these targeting exercises and more with this length).

6ft - Another
length that makes precision targeting a breeze. Also an excellent
length for the beginning whipcracker because the extra leverage from
the longer handle really makes learning basic cracks and combos
easier. Many experienced whipcrackers who have owned various
other lengths and styles across their career will settle upon this whip
as their most versatile and useful bullwhip. (Chris Camp "The Whip Guy" uses our
Australian 6ft with custom colors and knots in his world-renowned whip
shows). |

8ft - The
perfect marriage between the grace of a long whip and the ease of
handling of a medium length whip. Without a doubt, this style
creates the easiest handling 8ft whip we've ever tried, and we are
proud to be able to make it for our customers to be able to enjoy
too. Also an excellent choice for beginner and experienced whip
handlers alike. |

10ft - A
beautiful whip especially for slow and graceful wraps and flicks.
The longer Australian handle provides a greater ability to control the
extra long thong of this long whip, and in the hands of an experienced
whip artist we've even seen some impressive precision targeting
executed with our Australian 10ft bullwhips. |
