About this trick
This is a great introductory whip because it's fairly simple to learn.  In my opinion, it's even easier than Plastic Whip.  And besides that, it's also a pretty cool-looking trick with quite a few things you can do with it.

Some people say that before you do the whip, you should twist your throwhand in towards yourself around the string.  I don't really notice very much difference this makes, which is why I didn't put it in the actual tutorial, but you can still try it if
you'd like.

About this trick
The second slack-throw is a little strange.  It's almost like a totally different move than the first throw.  It seems a lot harder than the first one when you're first learning it (at least, it did for me), but, once you get the hang of it, it's a snap.

Also, quite a few of the moves in this trick are just overall awkward at first.  There's so much arm-crossing and hopping and stuff.  Just keep working on it and it may just become one of your favorite tricks to do!
