I have a dressage whip you can have. It has come undone at the top but just needs pulling up and taping (if that makes sense?)

Different driving disciplines use different lengths and types of reins (ie saddle horses have loop type handles in them so not suitable). We have a pair we bought at the Kelly Marks clinics, they are from Monty Roberts and a bit pricey but well worth it - correct length, soft for the user and kind on the horse. Perhaps ask Szussanna (sp?)

Rhythem if you want to use lunge lines for long reining you need to make an small adjustment. Siply cut off the clips and add about 1 or 2m of thin rope and attach the clips to the end of the rope. That means that they release quickly and your "aides" are more clear. But I suppose it does depend on how you attach the lines when you long line.

Thanks for that BR will definatly give it a try
