Good lunge line for the price. Its soft over the top of his head not rough like nylon. Good sized rubber stopper not too heavy.

As a beginning dressage rider this is a wonderful tool. It helps find the correct meter when lungeing and when riding I use it to mark out a circle is the footing so I know what I should ride.

The concept is excellent, but the actual line is not meant for a 1000-1500lb. animal. Luckily, I knew to use the line in a fenced in area due to the lightweight material. If you have a horse who is not a perfect saint on the lunge line, this product is not for you. I will stick to the heavier lines and guess the size of the circle.

This lunge line is great for the circle measurements, however, it is so light-duty, if you had a horse that pulled very much at all, I would think it might break at some point. I was disappointed in the thin nature of the line. Also, I think the line would be better with some stoppers on it to help hold on to it, like maybe at each break in the circle sizes.

Nice snap, wish it was a heavier weight. Good idea though, who knew a 20M circle was so big?

I really like this lunge line -- it's a decent weight, and the three colors are especially great for giving an indication of the size of the circle! Very smart design. Also like the big rubber washer at the end. I would buy this line again, though it is well made, seems sturdy, and should last a long long time.

This lunge line works well once you become acclimated to its light weight. It is sturdy and the tri-colored pattern is of great aid in judging circle size. For a horse that is a challenge lunging a heavier line may give you greater confidence.

I love the metered line, as I'm somewhat spatially impaired when it comes to judging exact distances. I would prefer an option without the rubber stop, though. I prefer a loop at the end of the line, as it doesn't add extra weight to the line.

I bought this lunge line because I needed one and the arena I was using did not have letters/measurements. This is a great buy because it does tell you what is a 10m, 15m, and 20m circle is. I am not crazy about the material. It doesn't seem all that strong, but I haven't had trouble with it yet and I have been using it for a few months now. The colors are an added bonus because you do not have to look for the tag that states what diameter the circle is, even though there are tags for each diameter. In the end, I would purchase this again. Good price, good idea.

I absolutely adore this lunge line. It is light weight and easy for me to hold despite the neurological problems that affect my hands. The lunge line is very soft and doesn't tangle easily.

Love this lunge line, it's heavy duty and works great. I love that it's metered! The only thing I don't like about it is that the line can get twisted when you lunge and it's a pain trying to untwist it, but other than that it's great!

While I love the color change and the hardware on this line, the weight of the cotton is way too light and flimsy! I find it easily windblown, both compromising the communication with my horse and easily getting tangled in my hand and around my whip. I find it distracting and somewhat dangerous when working with green horses.

I really like the metered lunge line part, but I found this lunge line very hard to hold. The actual line is very thin and flaps. The material easily slips through your fingers. I find myself having to adjust the line in my hand, which is annoying when you are trying to train your horse. It works and it is very good quality, though my horse is not very strong on the lunge line.

I have only used the lunge twice now since purchase. It isn't as heavy duty as others I've used, but the hardware is solid and the stitching appears durable. The meter markers are clear and useful.

This lunge line is made of soft cotton. The different colors allow you to know exactly how large or small the circle your horse is traveling. I've been very pleased with it.

The lungeline was not as heavy as I had expected it to be. It is very lightweight, flops around alot and becomes easily tangled.
