WITD 201.07 The Cutback62 viewsThe Cutback Almost 50 videos into the series and this is the first S-shaped crack taught. Sport crackers often teach the Circus crack or Cattleman's crack as the first crack to learn. While it is the easiest crack to learn and the loudest to crack. This S-shaped crack depending upon the geometric plane it is thrown in goes by many names. When angled on the backhand side on a diagonal, it can be called a backhand cattleman's crack, or a Cutback. A cattleman's crack naturally wants to crack 2/3 of the way down the thong. Long before it reaches its dungeon target, a whip catcher. So slow the cutback way down when learning it and let the S-shape, transition into a U-shape and let it rollout all the way to its target for a controlled puff finish. Then practice it with controlled puffs. The first crack learned sport cracking is the LAST crack to learn when the goal is throwing in the dungeon on a living target with control and finesse.07/13/20 at 17:36unohu1962: I tend to like the overhead and reverse overhead c...

In this whips in the dungeon music interpretation, the galley whip plays the lead, tomcat plays baritone, weighted bat plays percussionist bass and alto, snake whip plays 1st tenor, and the bullwhip plays the quintet final verse.07/13/20 at 13:25Cool_Luke: Could we have the Leon Cohen version please and re...

WITD 201.06 Backhand Crack62 viewsBackhand Crack WITD 201.3 & 4 established the forehand flick and overhand. WITD 201.5 showed the backhand flick. Continuing to work on the backhand this video shows the slight variation to throw an overhand U-shaped crack on the backhand side. Call it simply a backhand crack. Remember slight variations on the throwing end make larger changes on the catching end. First simply watch the shape of the crack making a U-shape on the vertical on the backhand side. Then compare the wrist and hand position on the release point that makes this crack different than the backhand flick.07/12/20 at 20:05unohu1962: I'm starting to really grasp the concept of h...

WITD 201.05 Backhand Flick75 viewsBackhand Flick WITD 201.3 showed the forehand flick. Now reverse the process, isolate the backhand, stall the whip coming out of the forward figure 8 on the back hand side and flick it into a rolling U shape crack. Practice controlled puffs 1-8 on the backhand side, extending the whip's stall will make the flick effortless. Practice the backhand more than the forehand so that eventually both forehand and backhand are consistently even. This will be important when energy exchange is broken down further.07/11/20 at 23:07unohu1962: I always find it easier to crack off the backhand ...

WITD 201.02 Footwork-Horizontal Throwing111 viewsFootwork-Horizontal Throwing @_D_ Small changes on the throwing end affect sensations on the receiving end (surface target/whip catcher). Working the whip circle while maintaining accuracy will vary sensations and keep even the most bored whip catcher engaged with the energy and the music, I meant to say rhythm of the whip.07/11/20 at 12:32unohu1962:

WITD 101.41a Aftercare59 viewsAftercare is a consideration in any scene. There are many types of aftercare. Consider the whip catcher coming down from a huge endorphin rush. Water, blanket, sometimes chocolate or a hard candy. Some prefer to cuddle, some prefer to be left alone and have quiet time, some prefer to quietly chat about the experience. Some prefer their primary partner or a friend give aftercare. Whip tops experience drops differently too. Whether giving or assigning aftercare, always consider it in negotiations as a discussion point and an action point following a scene.07/11/20 at 12:30unohu1962: For sure. Subspace, can vary wildly from person to...

WITD 101.36a Controlled Puff60 views@Mistress_Marion for coining the term "controlled puff". This concept while not in my book, WITD, compliments the controlled puffs that transition to effective dungeon play. Learn to throw controlled steps of gradually building intensity. Practice this technique with all dungeon whips. Warmup 1-5, play 4-8. Never reach 10=Never reaching "red". This is adjusted based on feedback from the whip catcher during play.07/11/20 at 12:24unohu1962: I love rattan canes! Along with singetails, these ...

WITD 101.30 To Crack or Not To Crack61 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.07/11/20 at 12:17unohu1962: Vimeo, Youtube, Instagram....the content police ar...

WITD 101.28 How To Make ladysally Crackers70 viewsHow To Make ladysally Crackers shows how to make this wonderful specialty cracker by deconstructing twisted mason line and reconstructing it into a specialty cracker. Mason line comes in a variety of sizes, Dex's favorite is No. 18. Larger numbers are thicker, and smaller numbers will be stingier. 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 play07/11/20 at 12:14unohu1962: Thanks to both you and ladysally for sharing this!...

The other modification converts the original cracker into an eye or small loop using waxed whipping thread found at a boat shop like West Marine. Reasons why these modifications are advantageous are explained.07/11/20 at 12:11unohu1962: I wish I would have seen this video earlier. I had...
