I purchased this whipper for my 18" in May, and it changed my concept of the way to play a bodhran. It's fast, reactive, versatile. It's also much kinder to the wrist than a traditional tipper. It has become my favorite implement among many. And it led me to create a few other specialty whippers to fill in gaps I never knew I had. I am so pleased that I purchased it.

An interesting Tipper, but expensive when postage added coming to UK. Takes practice to use but eventually hope to utilise its unique style.

Great Whipper Tipper! This whipper tipper is exceptionally well made and conceived. It's opened up an entire world of bodran play that I've followed, but never knew how to access ...until now.

This well-made tipper isn't for beginners, since its light weight makes it difficult to do rolls. But with practice, I'm sure anyone can use it to good effect. Listening to Ronal O Snodaigh using this tipper was enough to convince me. I am interested in learning more high-hand technique and this tipper is just the ticket. I'm not conversant in it yet, but hope that in time I'll be rattling off high-hand beatings. I recommend this tipper. Tom Seymour
