SHOPPERS!- Lunge line

[mini-eventer]

Just wondered if any one can help me?

I am looking for a quality lunge line

I would like it to be padded.

Not too bothered about colour but being on a busy livery yard being distinctive would be a bonus.

What I would really like and I am struggleing to find. Is one that has leather grips (think continental reins) to help stop it sliding through your hand.

Really struggling to find a padded one like this. But I know they exist because a friend had one x

I have one its red and blue stripe with leather grips I got mine from the local tack shop for the life of me can not think who its by can have a look tomorrow for you, but its great padded really nice to handle,if all else fails can go to shop and perhaps get you one if you wanted if no one else can help

That sounds exactly what I am looking for!

My friends was so nice to handle. The weight & quality of it seams to stop all the twists you get with cheap lines!

If you are going to your tack shop, I would love to know the make and I imagine I could order one online.

If not I might have to take you up on your very kind offer and organise you to send me one.

Thanks your so much x

Faracat,

I have seen this one & I would preffer a more "cushion web" type. However if I cant get a cushion web with the leather bits. I think I will order this one.

I bought some cotton braided lunge lines and after having used more or less every type going, love these.

http://www.gibson-saddlers.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=1551rn These are the lunge lines I use - very heavy duty. They are fantastic and you do not get burnt hands. I do not wear gloves when I lunge or long rein. I also prefer the leather fastenings to a clip.

This looks just the same as the one I have,it was a bit more money than other lines but I think its well worth the money and no one else on the yard has anything like it, so it can not be mistaken for someone elses. My local shop does not do online,so think you would be best of getting it from here,but if not avail I can buy one and post it on to you, just let me know.

I have one from Cottage Craft similar to this. Make sure there is a handle at the end and not too thick - I hate padded ones. When you have hold of them they are too thick in your hand and you cant gather and release quickly especially with gloves on (which you should have on )
