Showjumping Whip

[Stenners]

I have only just found out of the rule change for whips for showjumping! until this year I haven't competed in 3 years so I missed this. I was competing yesterday and my friend told me so I had to borrow hers!

What whips do you all use? Not sure if some are more recommended than others?

Daughter told me that Yves St Laurent are making showjumping whips now!

Saint-Laurent has dressage crops, and a short crop (crop crop?) at $850, too.

Is it a baton you now have to use like for eventing?? I nearly got caught out a few weeks ago eventing. Luckily I managed to borrow one. I ordered one as soon as I got home!!

It has to be padded along the length that can touch the horse, for those on a smaller budget than ysl something like this

I prefer the ones with a thinner handle and so have the other version of the WW ones:

There are some others that you can get the tops engraved but even after I had my name and phone number put on it, I still didn't get it back when I managed to leave it at a show so now I've gone for the cheaper ww one.
