How to Crack: The Arrowhead

We’ve had this whipcracking tutorial for the Arrowhead routine up on Youtube for a few weeks now, but we thought it might be helpful to post it here on The Whip Blog as well.

The Arrowhead isn’t a beginner’s routine.  Before attempting it, you’ll want to first be able to proficiently and cleanly perform the cattleman’s crack, fast and slow figure eights, and the volley.  Also, we always suggest wearing at least eye protection while whipcracking (safety glasses, wraparound sunglasses, etc.), but that eye protection is doubly important when learning a routine like the Arrowhead which requires fast cracking and a plane change in front of your face.  So please, be safe.

Good luck and have fun!
