Advantages: flat finishing knot, they aren't twisted, larger margin of error in throwing, excellent for beginning whip throwers and advanced, more even marking, marks seem to disappear in 24 hrs., + in pickup play

WITD 101.30 To Crack or Not To Crack62 viewsTo Crack or Not To Crack looks at creating a synthesis with your whip in the dungeon. Nuisance cracking, excessive practice cracking and thoughtless whip throwers have in some parts of the world given whips a bad reputation. This short practice session talks through letting the music influence whether you crack or do not crack to create a compatible dungeon set. Secret Garden, Journey, and Rammstein are compared. Whips, canes, rope, floggers all belong in the dungeon. Do not let dungeon owners ban whips.

WITD 101.33 Negotiations70 viewsNegotiations specifically focuses on approaching a single whip scene with someone who has never felt a whip. Dex never approaches anyone for a first dance. Whip tops should not be predators. Whip bottoms should always watch someone throw and get a sense of the skill level of someone they want to approach for a scene. After a successful, first dance, aftercare, and debriefing, provided the bottom gives good feedback on the experience, Dex will approach someone for a second dance.

WITD 101.34 Reverse Your Brain57 viewsReverse Your Brain focuses on the concept of brain elasticity, or using the opposite hemisphere of your brain. Rather than dig into the research, it puts forth the principle that every moment you spend practicing the 4 WITD techniques with your "opposite" hand will make your "dominant" hand smarter. The result is proficiency faster in dungeon play with your dominant hand than would have occurred without the opposite hand practice. Ambidextrous throwers should practice both sides as well, lol.

WITD 101.35 Consent63 viewsConsent begins when negotiations end. Gain explicit consent to play within the negotiated parameters. Check in frequently, gain explicit consent to continue play or the scene. Do this until many whip sessions with explicit consent have been successfully navigated, good communication, learning each other's body language, and layering/building upon multiple scenes with the same whip catcher can lead to implicit consensual play."
