FAQ
How long is the Waldhausen Griffy Lunge Line?
It measures approximately 8 metres, which gives a standard lungeing circle for most horses and ponies.
What is it made from?
The line is made from 100% polyester and is finished with a swivel carabiner.
Why does it have a swivel carabiner?
The swivel allows the clip to rotate as your horse turns and changes direction, which helps stop twists building up through the length of the line.
Can I use it with a headcollar instead of a lunge cavesson?
Yes, the carabiner clips to a headcollar, bridle or lunge cavesson. A cavesson generally gives the clearest communication for schooling on the circle.
Is it suitable for ponies as well as larger horses?
Yes. The 8 metre length works for ponies, cobs, horses and warmbloods - simply let out as much line as the circle size requires.
How should I care for the lunge line?
Allow it to dry naturally after use and store it loosely coiled away from direct heat. Check the webbing, stitching and carabiner for wear before each session and replace the line if you find fraying or damage.
