How To
This crack can be done after a forward crack such as a Cattleman's, or after a reverse crack such as a Reverse Cattleman. The description following is for doing this toss after a forward crack.
- Perform a Cattleman's Crack or a single Drum Roll crack
- After the crack, start to bring your hand backup as if to start a second drum roll
- Before your hand's motion is picked up by the whip (its should still be falling to the ground in front of you) toss the handle of the whip up and behind you.
- The whip should continue to rotate downward, while the rotational center of the whip travels backward
- Catch the whip over (or event slightly behind) your shoulder.
