Pocket Pal Telescoping Crop

    This riding crop collapses like an old fashioned automobile radio antenna to fit any toy bag, bedside table, or pocket. It has a plastic shaft with a neoprene slapper.

   This crop solves the biggest problem people have with riding crops: "Where do I put it?" Crops are elegant and sophisticated, they've got a nice long reach for pointing and posing, but they just don't fit easily into toy bags and bedside tables. Put a riding crop in the umbrella stand or guest-room closet and someone sooner or later is going to ask, in all innocence, "Oh, do you ride ?" Unless you do go in for equestrian exercise with four-legged horses … awk--ward !!

   Flexible, fast and whippy, this crop has a really superb action for fast tapping and medium force smacking with the tip.  But, a real full-armed slashing thrashing - NO!  The shaft will not break … but it may "never be quite the same" in regard to smooth and easy opening and closing. (We feel-tested it in the shop.)

    That taken into account, the telescoping crop is not a toy or a novelty.
    It is a superb instrument for light to medium use ... and it goes everywhere -- discreetly.
