Well,
Yes Cracking is in my opinion very fun and its a great
way to exercise. But you have to remember that when the
whip cracks it is breaking the speed of sound and that
can hurt quite a bit. When cracking you should always
wear safety gear. Glasses, Long Sleeved shirt, pants, gloves,
and a brimmed hat to repel the whip from hitting your head.
All of this stuff is needed to protect yourself from getting hurt or cut.(which has never really happened to me)
but you always have to be cautious. I recommend you go
out and buy your self a whip cracking video so you have an idea of what you are trying to do. And make sure that you put leather dressing on your whip about 2 times a month depending how much you use it and put it on the fall regularly (easiest to get is pecards and leather dressing and if the whipmaker you buy the whip from, if they happen to sell any that should also be good). The cheapest way if you have never bought over the web before would be to send a check to the person through the mail, which is not expensive at all. Online payment methods often charge transaction fees.
Thanks and good luck!
