Bullwhip Cracking: the Tasmanian Cutback

This is a how-to video explaining a crack called the Tasmanian Cutback, which I believe was created by Chris Beck of Tasmania, Australia. I'm using a 6 ft nylon cow whip made by Florida whipmaker Chris Hall.

I am haveing big troubles with this crack, My whip Is a 10 ft cowhide indiana jones style whip or a 6 ft nylon cow whip but I can't get it, It always catches my hand as it moves back. I can't get this one to work. Do you have any advice for me?

@DrHenryWaltenJonesJr When your hand is behind your back you must make sure to keep the handle angled away from your back.

for me this is the hardest of the whip cracks to do, along with the singleton special and the arrow head. I can do underhand flicks, overhand flicks, side flicks, overhead cracks, backwords overhead cracks, cattlemans crack, coachmans crack, volley, tasmanian flash, fast and slow figure 8, and many others. can you make a more detailed video of the tasmanian cutback and a few others demonstrating how to get to where you can do it.

Great video man. Side note: am i the only one who got a chuckle when he said "what you dont want to do is..**gusts of wind** **whoosh** and thats why we shouldnt **swoosh** and God help you if you ever **swoosh** **wind noise** Seriously though, great vids man. I just got a whip from a friend (Hungarian bullwhip) and i have been trying a bit of stuff. Its a bit big for a beginner but everything takes practice :)

[ibahjah]

ive watched this video a couple time and when i tried it outside it only took me a couple tries thanks to you. i was having trouble clearing my leather aussie hat so i took it of and i could do it vary easily. Thanks Adam love all of your videos, they help alot!

[OpethPennywise]

I notice you haven;t done this crack with a bullwhip, always a stock or cowhide whip.... is it done differently with a normal bullwhip?

Five stars from me!

the way a whip echo's where i live it sounds exactly like a rifle goes off then it hits, if you've ever hunted or even shot a gun for that matter ( if you hit something :P ) you will hear "BANG, then a little noise that i can't explain " but that little noise is the bullet hitting whatever it hits, and i've had people freak out thinking we were shooting alot ( me and a friend at about 11:30 at night got out 2 whips and were doing a nice even crack crack crack crack ) woke many people i bet lol

@eskcipher

Much abliged :D

[eskcipher]

thanks agian adam i just went outside to try this 4 trys on the up swing 3 trys on the down swing and then i relly tried it and got a small crack within 5 min. so thanks cause ive learned all of cracks from you

[eskcipher]

@qwas12348gr5 whips last a while if u take care of them if your whip dosent have a fall you can replace it with a new one and if ur whip is falling apart try puting leather/saddle dressing on it if its dry and you should try to only crack ur whip on grass and really soft dirt, nothing hard like rocks, pavement, and concrete i hope i helped you out a little
