Comparative tests were performed using the Kepler whip carrier
with two David Morgan bullwhips of the #451 series: one 6-foot model,
and one 12-foot model. Each bullwhip was placed in the whip carrier,
firmly snapped in, and put through six different moves:

1 fast run
2 fast run, ending with a large jump
3 "Penitent man" forward roll
4 fast run, with an abrupt stop and turn
5 walking
6 climbing

Each individual move was performed three times, with the handle
hanging out of the carrier, and with the handle in the carrier.
Comparative tests indicated that the bullwhip stayed inside
the whip carrier better when the handle was carried within the
loop.
