Woof Wear Twisted Whip Black/Silver

Woof Wear Twisted Dressage Whip – Black / Silver

The Twisted is Woof Wear's sparkling dressage whip: a slim shimmer grip wound through with crystals, on a flexible fibreglass shaft finished with a 10cm flick. Black with silver crystals is the version that goes with everything and looks smart rather than showy.

Woof Wear build the Twisted Dressage Whip in 100cm, 110cm and 120cm. That length is the whole point of a dressage whip — it reaches behind your leg while your hand stays on the rein, which a 60cm riding whip cannot do.

Performance & Benefits

• Slim shimmer grip twisted through with crystals — Woof Wear's most decorative whip handle.
• Flexible fibreglass shaft, balanced so the whip sits quietly in the hand instead of nodding at every stride.
• Finished with a 10cm flick, which gives a light and clearly defined aid rather than a broad slap.
• Long enough to reach behind your leg without moving your hand off the rein — the reason a dressage whip exists.
• Slim grip diameter, easy to roll between the fingers when you swap hands at a change of rein.
• Branded end cap keeps the grip in place at the butt.

Suitable For

• Flatwork and dressage schooling at home, and lessons.
• Riders who need to back up a leg aid without shortening or dropping a rein.
• Anyone matching whip, browband and spurs into one turnout.
• Smaller hands, given the slim grip.
• Not a jumping whip — it is far too long to use one-handed over a fence. For showjumping choose the Woof Wear Stealth Jump Bat at 60cm, the Jump Bat Full Grip at 65cm, or the Junior Jump Bat at 50cm for a child.
• Not a hacking whip either. For roads and general riding the Woof Wear Gel Fusion Riding Whip at 60cm, or the reflective Hi Vis Riding Whip, are easier to carry.

How to Use

• Carry it in the inside hand, running down across your thigh so the flick sits just behind your leg.
• Ask with the leg, then confirm with a single light touch of the flick behind the leg. Release and reward as soon as the horse answers.
• Change hands over the withers at each change of rein rather than reaching across the neck.
• Woof Wear's care instruction is wipe clean only. Wipe the shaft with a damp cloth and dry it; keep water out of the crystal grip.
• Hang it up or lay it flat. Standing it on the flick sets a permanent bend in the tip.
