KM Elite Junior Grip Whip with Wrist Loop 60cm
Description
KM Elite Junior Black Grip Whip With Loop - 60 cm Schooling Whip For Young Riders
The KM Elite Junior Black Grip Whip With Loop is a 60 cm riding whip designed for children and smaller riders who are still building confidence in the saddle. It combines a short, proportionate shaft with a black ergonomic grip and an integrated wrist loop, making it best for riding school lessons, basic cueing and introductory schooling with ponies and horses.
Because the shaft is shorter than a standard schooling whip, a junior rider can give a light, well-timed aid without over-extending the arm or disturbing their rein contact - which is exactly what makes it a sensible first whip.
Key Features
- Junior 60 cm length: a proportionate reach for younger riders, allowing precise cues without over-extension.
- Black ergonomic grip: sits comfortably in smaller hands during longer practice sessions.
- Integrated wrist loop: helps secure the whip and reduces the chance of dropping it in a busy arena.
- Beginner-friendly design: suited to riding lessons, basic cueing and introductory training.
- KM Elite range: practical training tools made for everyday yard and arena use.
- Clear, consistent aids: supports better timing and responsiveness as young riders progress.

How to Use
- Slide the wrist loop over the hand before mounting, then take up the reins as normal.
- Carry the whip in the inside hand, resting across the thigh with the shaft pointing down and back.
- Apply the leg aid first, then follow with a single light touch of the whip behind the leg if the horse does not respond.
- Reward the correct response immediately with a softer contact and praise, so the aid stays light.
- To change hands, bring the whip upright across the body and pass it over the withers in one quiet movement.
- Wipe the shaft and grip clean after use, dry naturally, and store hanging or laid flat to keep the shaft straight.

FAQ
What length is the KM Elite Junior Whip?
It measures 60 cm, a junior length that gives a proportionate reach for children and smaller riders rather than the longer reach of a full-size schooling whip.
Is this whip suitable for a beginner?
Yes. It is part of the KM Elite range of beginner-friendly training tools and is intended for riding lessons, basic cueing and introductory work with ponies and horses.
What does the wrist loop do?
The integrated loop slips over the hand to help hold the whip secure, reducing the chance of dropping it during a lesson or in a busy arena.
Can it be used for flatwork on a full-size horse?
It can be used for basic cueing, but at 60 cm the reach is short. Riders schooling a larger horse and needing to reach further behind the leg may prefer a standard-length schooling whip.
How do I look after the whip?
Wipe the shaft and grip with a damp cloth after use, allow it to dry naturally, and store it hanging or flat so the shaft stays straight. Replace the whip if the shaft, grip or loop becomes damaged.
Can I use this whip at competitions?
Whip length and use are governed by the rules of each discipline and organising body, so check the current rulebook for your class before you compete.
