FOX 40 PEARL FINGER GRIP WHISTLE

Awesome whistle, slightly lower register makes the sound more pleasing to me.I have found it is a bit harder to blow on it with a consistent force - as it is pea-less, it will never "clog" (not that that ever happened to me even in pouring rain, but nonetheless...) - if you blow on it softly, it really makes an underwhelming sound. For this whistle to work, you need to block the tip with your tongue as you build up pressure inside your mouth and then release the tongue rapidly which then blasts the sound (almost like spitting). Going full blast is simple, the trick is being able to blow at moderate levels. There are actually videos online that will teach you :)In terms of the finger grip, it is very nice and love not having a lanyard bothering me. At first it was slightly loose on my hand and I was afraid I might drop it, but it is actually a metallic clamp so if you apply a bit of force you can bend it inwards (or outwards) to adjust the grip force but sturdy enough that it won't bend out of shape by itself. It's really comfortable and with the rubber coating there's zero chance it will slide out. The only thing I would have preferred is the ability to separate the whistle from the grip - it is built in a way that I don't think you could do so without breaking the base.I'm now using this for futsal as well. Not as comfy in that environment because for futsal you have to switch hands permanently as you need to signal with either hand based on the direction of play, which reverses quickly and constantly. I basically just grab it in my hand which is what you do with a regular itty bitty whistle. This feels a bit awkward because of the clamp but it works just fine. In fact for some people it may be preferable as it adds a bit of heft.The only final thought is that for what it is, the price feels a bit salty - think about it: for the price of 2 whistles you can buy a mini drone nowadays! So, sure, a 50 cent whistle will do the trick for most non professional refs. But, this will increase your field presence a notch or two :)

I used to use the classic model which had a high pitch, but it kind of died down after several months/years of use. I decided to order this model. I am pleasantly surprised by the high/loud pitch which is perfect for my purpose of refereeing soccer games. It takes a little more effort to blow, but when your running you're automatically blowing hard anyway.

Works great, easy to hold, stays on the hand, loud, consistent.

The whistle is very comfortable and and very durable, I have dropped it many times on many different things and still looks brand new. The only thing I don’t like about it is that it is a very high pitched whistle and does not really allow for anyone to change the pitch of it, other than it is overall an amazing whistle

It fits comfortably in your fingers and grip is good. Looks professional and is very sturdy.

I use this whistle to referee soccer.I do love the finger grips (vs a lanyard) but the ones on this whistle are not easily adjustable, and the size is kind of in between 2 and 3 fingers for me.Also, it has to be held at just the write angle to blow correctly, which can be hard to do while I'm moving down a soccer field.

this is a great soccer ref whistle

I received the whistle on time and everything was to the description expressed. I am happy with the service provided by the company.The whistle is not to my standard.The quality is not to great. Soft tone.Not the company’s fault. My fault for not realizing the whistle is not of great quality.

The media could not be loaded.  O apito que eu quero é esse só com o nome pearl na frente,o que veio tá na frente Fox 40 pearl e o som é diferente

A qualidade do som do apito não atendeu as expectativas. Aliás, esse produto não parece ser original da marca Fox. Perdi meu investimento
