CANAMO hemp lunges

Hemp lunge for lunging & cavesson work

Lightweight and dimensionally stable lunge made of round-twisted hemp in excellent, hand-sewn quality. With a length of 8 meters, it is perfect for lunging and working with the cavesson.

The hemp lunge line is equipped with a leather buckle for particularly fine communication. This makes it very easy to attach to the cavesson or halter and is particularly suitable for sensitive horses that react to the weight of a carabiner. This enables particularly fine aids to be given. In addition, unlike a carabiner, the buckle cannot leave any marks on the noseband cavesson. And if a carabiner is needed, it can simply be attached to the leather buckle.

The end of the hemp lunge is covered with leather over a length of 10 cm to match the buckle.

Handcrafted in Spain. With black leather elements and silver-colored buckle.

Hemp lunges do not offer the choice of colors that synthetic fiber lunges do. However, they combine some outstanding properties that make them a practical companion in the stable and in the riding arena. Hemp is therefore rightly experiencing a real renaissance. Groundwork ropes and lunges made from hemp are particularly durable and resistant. As they absorb less water than cotton, for example, they retain their grip even when lunging in the rain.

And even if the horse at lunge gets a bit cocky, the hemp lunge line will do a good job: as hemp is flame retardant, it generates less heat than synthetic materials when the hemp lunge line is jerked through the hands. This reduces the risk of blisters.

Compared to the natural material cotton, hemp has a higher abrasion resistance and is more sustainable to grow. A hemp field yields three times more than cotton cultivation on an identical area. Cotton also consumes much more water during cultivation. Groundwork ropes and lunges made from synthetic fibers, on the other hand, cannot be composted and require chemicals to produce.
