Lash Issues
Have bought this whip twice for my teen dressage rider. She loves the small grip and the lightness of this dressage whip. It is really perfect for her. Unfortunately, the lash has come off both whips in less than two months of riding 4-6x/week. Very disappointing given the price.

Disappointing
This whip had a good feel for schooling, so I was initially pretty happy with the purchase. However, I discovered during an equipment check at a show that the 120 cm actually measured more than 120 cm. I had to cut the lash to be allowed to show with it. I was fortunate to have it checked before my ride and not be eliminated. Disappointing from a company that specializes in whips and surely knows that it will be subject to measurement! A few weeks later, the tip broke off while I rode.

LOVE IT
It is super lite, easy to use and very slim. Horse hates it but I love it, puts him in his place.

Well-balanced but delicate
This is the second one I bought. It is a super nice whip, but my first one snapped in half at the mounting block after two months of use. Still, I liked it enough to try again.

Great but easily breaks
I got this whip as a present around June or so and it was a great purchase. However, after dropping it on the ground once after a ride somehow the tip snapped off.

Feather light
I ride with it everyday. Bought about a month ago . My trainer and coach uses one and recommended it. Well balanced and stiff so I don’t inadvertently smack my horse with it .

Lightweight & flexible
I recently dropped my 4 year old Fleck carbon whip while riding on a gravel road and my lovely horse stepped on it and broke it. Naughty girl! My new Fleck whip is even nicer. No more dropped whips as this fits my hand with a good grip. It's a bit longer than my other whip which is perfect as I sometimes have difficulty flexing my wrist to tap my horse. Would definitely purchase another.

Best whip I’ve ever owned. Very balanced and light weight. Hardly know it’s in your hand. I’m a senior rider with some fingers that don’t function well. This whip is easy for me use use and doesn’t tire my hands. Love it!

Lightweight
I bought the crop around two weeks ago and have been using it daily. It is lightweight but not really anymore so than a regular crop. I like the crop but don’t think it’s worth the money. Bring the price in line with what other crops cost.

Some great features!
I bought this whip but ended up returning it and here is my two cents:
Pros:
Lightweight
Small comfortable grip
Nice size knob at end so it cant slip out of your hand
Very high quality feel
Cons:
VERY stiff, made it almost impossible to touch the horse without having to move my hand and open the rein which was not good for my contact with my specific horse
Because of the material its made from and how stiff it is I could definitely see it shattering especially when cold, if you lived in a warmer climate (Florida!) you wouldnt have to worry, but I would worry about using this whip in the winter.
