Can you jump with a schooling whip?

[Joyous70]

As title really, just wondered if it is possible.

ETA: I meant to say, can you jump at competitions using a schooling whip

 

[TuscanBunnyGirl]

I think the max length is 90cm xx

 

[MissSBird]

Nope, as I've been warned about this before when doing the clear round before the classes actually start with my long stick.

 

[Oldenburg]

No

But i think it all depend on what show you go to as i was at an unaff show the other week and they let someone use one!!

 

[PapaFrita]

No. Someone I know was eliminated for jumping with a schooling whip.

 

[OneInAMillion]

I thought the max length was 75. I think they have to be between 45cms and 75cms

 

[DarkHorseB]

My 7 year old was pulled up for riding with a schooling whip at an unaffiliated show!!
75cm is the max for BE certainly and 45cm to 75cm for BS(JA)

 

[Weezy]

Deffo not - I am one that has been eliminated for doing so by mistake

 

[maletto]

I'm pretty sure 75cm is the max length for a whip under BS(JA) rules.

Most schooling whips are longer than this though.

I'm pretty sure you can warm up with one, but just swap it before you go in. Either that or I've just been getting away with it

Ooops I jumped with one in an unaffiliated show the other weekend. I was jumping after doing a dressage test and I was glad I had it. It was our first sj course and he started backing off at the wall so flicked him a few times to keep him going and kept both hands on reins so he didnt run out lol. He's getting braver now though.
