tommarker Posted August 27, 2003 Posted August 27, 2003 anyone here use this super fun weapon? i'm noticing an interesting problem... as I move the whip faster and it gains a lot of momentum, I find the whip handle starting to get a little slippery in my hand. As fun as it would be to send a chain whip across the room at uncontrolled high speeds, how can I minimize this risk? I'm guessing a little more practice and confidence will help, but I'm hoping there's a tip or two that will help. Thanks I'm no longer posting here. Adios.
The_Albino_Monk Posted September 7, 2003 Posted September 7, 2003 I also have the same problem. I either just let my hand cool down or I wear a glove. Also, can anybody give the proper way to attach the sashes to the whip? thanks 8 year practicioner of Shaolin Kempo1st degree BlackAssistant Instructor
Fa-Jing Posted September 7, 2003 Posted September 7, 2003 Try useing some rosine as a weapons hand poweder it works good. It really works with hight speed training. U know what thay put on the bowe of a fidle ! I'm not sure but it might be the same thing free hand rock climers use on there hands to. Use fine powederd rosine of coures.

Nikkolaiashimon Posted September 8, 2003 Posted September 8, 2003 if your not super obsessed with how the weapon works then id suggest two things that i do. to fix it cheap, get medical tape (its a rough cloth tape) and wrap your grip with it. this will increase the friction so it wont slide. if you want to spend a bit more money, and make it look a bit better then buy tennis grip, you can get all sorts of nice colors, and it works wonders.

tommarker Posted September 8, 2003 Author Posted September 8, 2003 Yea, right now I've got a little tape on the grip, and it has helped a lot. Is there a special way to attach the scarves, or just put them on the ends? I'm no longer posting here. Adios.
