NEW DESIGN! This is design number 3, a project I have had in the background for a while now. For a long time I have wanted to build a design of poi floggers that is based around the type I actually use myself, build with my own techniques with durability and flexibility front of mind…

Image of a pair of new poi floggers, made in black yak leather with stainless steel chain and connecting links, the handle end featured finger loops that can be used to swing them. There are black and red detailed knots on the handle and flogger head. These are often used for two handed flogging with the 4 and 6 point “florentine” method.

Handle detail picture of the poi floggers handle loops, where two fingers pass through the loops allowing the swing of the floggers by hand. They are decorated with black and red detailed knots.

Custom order, a 4.5ft junior series snake, in a black and red “viper” pattern. The fruit of now being able to order lengths in half ft increments instead of whole ft.

A recently finished snake whip, which is 4.5ft long at the braided portion and another 18 inch fall and a long black cracker. It has a black and red pommel with a pineapple knot pattern with a small hanging loop.

The result of project “Snake whip hard mode” after the fight it put up during the build! Custom order, 3ft 32 plait foundation series snake in black, tan and white.

The whip finishes with a fall made out of Dyneema and has a lead weighted pommel with a double diamond handle braid pattern.

Good news! I’ve finally been able to set up a better notification system that gives better information for each step of the custom order phase. Customers will now get them when an order is In waiting, close to production and being produced.

Custom Order. This was a real piece to build, that ended up eating a lot more time than expected, but proved to have been worth it. 24 plait, 8ft bullwhip with an integrated Dyneema fall and tapered cracker. Www.alphawhips.com
