We have an exciting in store event on Wednesday just before UTA this week. Come in and see UTA legend Scotty Hawker’s film in collaboration with Vibram and hang around for a Q&A session after that.
We have our UTA taper run happening next Wednesday. Find more details on the Run Club page on our website and click on the link to sign up. All are welcome, the pace will be friendly!
Here at Whippa we pride ourselves on our rigorous testing to find the absolute limits of the materials we use. When we took the @aluulacomposites fabric out to see how it performed in a hauling scenario, despite Cairo’s best efforts, we didn’t manage to break it. So we thought up one final test and, suffice to say, we broke it.

The latest Talking Trail podcast is out and we hear plenty of great stories from folk who have just run their first Six Foot Track Marathon. Listen to it wherever you get your podcasts!
We are participating in the @katoombatownshops late night duck hunt this Friday. Please come along and check out all the awesome businesses our vibrant community has to offer and help support them while getting behind this fantastic community initiative. We will see you there!
We have the results from our testing the other week with @ropelab.richard featuring Ultra 200X, regular TPU, and @aluulacomposites Duralyte HH220. Have a look and see what Rob and Richard have to say about the testing process. Suffice to say the Aluula is impressive, even without considering it’s half the weight of the regular TPU. More to come!
Our Easter Sale is on over the long weekend. Don’t miss out! Whether you’re putting together your first trad rack or gearing up for UTA, we have a bargain for you!
Recently, we took some of the new @aluulacomposites materials alongside fabrics we have been using for some time to @ropelab.richard for strength testing. We have some exciting projects in the works but before committing to any of them we need to understand the limitations of the materials we want to use.
Watch the guys break stuff and stay tuned for the results!
Thirty years of trails, elevation gains, effort, and smiles. Ultra Raptor 3 starts from here, to continue that journey.
The unmistakable design is renewed: essential, light, agile. The fit is immediate, with a wide and soft upper that follows the foot hour after hour, without pressure points. The FriXion White sole ensures continuous stability even on exposed sections and uneven terrain.
Time and trails have made it an icon. Its future is now in your steps.
