Fowlers Custom Jockey Whip  with Soft Popper Option for Show Jumping And Eventing
Fowlers Custom Jockey Whip is a must have on cross country and during your show jumping round. Fowler’s Jockey whips are tested every day on the track, our Custom Jockey Whip and Custom Riding Crop are built to survive your most demanding training sessions.
Soft Crop Popper
Choosing the “Soft Popper” option gives you a padded popper that is “softer and gentler on horses”. This popper meets all the thoroughbred racing regulations. If you’re looking for a jockeys whip that meets reg, this is the jockey whip for you. Check with your local racing commission on length regulations.Â
Soft crop poppers, included on your Fowler’s Custom Jockey Whip are made from Cordura, a water repellant and very durable fabric that stands up to heavy use.
USEA Whip Specification – Length & Use
Eventers, you can use either the standard popper in its many variations or the soft popper option – we have seen both and both are USEA legal. Checkout section 7, EV114.3 – Whips. Pay attention to page 30 – “If a horse is marked by the whip, e.g. the skin is broken, its use is excessive”. If your horse’s skin is super sensitive, the soft popper option may be your best bet.
Page 32 in the 2013 rule book: “3. WHIPS. One whip no longer than 12cm (47.2 in) including lash may be carried when riding on the flat at any time… If a whip is carried in the cross-country and / or the Jumping Test, or while jumping any obstacle before these tests, it must not be weighted at the end or exceed 75cm (30″) in length. An adjustable-length whip may not be carried by a mounted rider.”Â
Fowler’s custom jockey whips are not weighted and come in personalized lengths.
