Red and black Whip n Skip tabletop game showing the U-turn channel and three scoring rings worth 25, 50 and 100 points

Whip n Skip Hire

It's a 6-foot tabletop track in red and black. You get five flat discs per round - hockey-puck-weight, easy to hold - and the idea is to push each one along the lane, around the U-turn at the far end, and into one of three scoring rings on the way back: 25, 50 or 100 points. Miss all three and you score nothing for that disc.

The skill is in the push: too little and the disc stalls in the bend; too much and it skips straight past all the rings. Finding the right amount of force takes a few attempts, which is exactly what keeps people queuing up for another round rather than wandering off.

There's no power needed, and a player gets through five shots in around a minute, so it handles a queue fairly comfortably at busy events. It works on its own or alongside other carnival and skill games if you're building a bigger setup.

We've been hiring out exhibition and carnival games since 1999, and we own this kit outright - it's maintained and checked at our warehouse in Rotherham before every hire.

How It Works

Five red discs sit at the START position. You push each one along the outbound lane - the lane curves into a U-turn channel at the far end, and after navigating the bend the disc travels back along the return lane where three rings are set into the surface, worth 25, 50 and 100 points. A disc that carries past all three rings scores nothing for that turn.

The game rewards control rather than power: too little force and the disc stalls in the U-turn; too much and it overshoots the highest-scoring ring. Finding the right amount consistently is what takes practice, and that's what keeps people coming back for another go.

If you want to run it as a competition across the day, a paper leaderboard works well alongside it - people tend to keep an eye on the board and come back once they've seen where they placed.
