We see the whip, slinging your own jammer with your arm, with reasonable frequency in the Houston league. More so in some teams than others.
I’d never heard of a leg whip, until I saw this picture.
It obviously looks more difficult, but given that your leg has more reach and more power, it seems it could be effective if done correctly. I’m not really sure what “correctly” is, though.

Ziv Kruger has pictures on his flickr stream - Beverly Kills has tongue wagging and hands flared.
We preview the upcoming bouts of Houston’s two travel teams verses teams from Austin and San Antonio. The Colonel rambles a bit about San Antonio, league sizes, and whatever else (bring your grain of salt).
