Product Information
Full details
The KM Elite Cush Grip Jump Bat is an essential tool for equestrian riders of all levels who require precise communication with their horse. Featuring a 60cm reach and an ergonomic TPU handle, this jump bat balances durability with a secure hold to reduce hand fatigue during long training sessions or competitive rounds. While it offers excellent performance and grip, riders should note that the 60cm length is specifically calibrated for jumping and may feel different from shorter schooling crops or longer dressage whips.

FAQs
Is this jump bat suitable for beginners?
Yes, the ergonomic design and lightweight balance make it excellent for beginners learning to provide clear, consistent aids without excessive force.
What is the total length of the bat?
The KM Elite Cush Grip Jump Bat is 60cm in length, which is the standard size for show jumping.
Does the grip material contain latex?
The handle is made from high-quality TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane), which is generally considered latex-free.
Can I use this for dressage training?
While it can be used for general schooling, its 60cm length is specifically designed for jumping. A longer dressage whip is typically recommended for dressage work.
How do I maintain the grip's tackiness?
Regularly wiping the handle with a damp cloth prevents the buildup of contaminants that can make the TPU surface feel slick.
Troubleshooting
Grip feels slippery after intense use
Clean the handle with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove oil and sweat buildup.
Shaft seems slightly bent
Avoid leaning on the bat or leaving it under heavy items. If bent, store it hanging straight to allow gravity to assist in realigning it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jump bat is ready for use immediately out of the packaging. No assembly or special setup is required. To ensure the longevity of the product, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, as prolonged UV exposure can degrade synthetic materials over time.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe the TPU grip with a damp cloth after each use to remove sweat, dirt, or horse dander.
- Storage: Keep in a tack room or upright in a whip holder to prevent the shaft from bending or warping.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the end popper and the tip for signs of wear to ensure the bat remains effective.
