Horseriding Crop (whip)

Owned by Madeleine Symons.
A riding crop, often referred to simply as a crop or whip, is a riding accessory designed to assist riders in communicating with their horses. It typically consists of a slender, flexible shaft made of materials like fibreglass or wood and a small leather popper or flap at one end. The popper is used to create a gentle tapping motion when applied to the horse’s flank or hindquarters.
