Water Jumps and Liverpools
According to FEI rules, a Water Jump must have a minimum spread of 2.5m. If water is used under, in front of or behind an obstacle, the obstacle is called a Liverpool.
Liverpools are vinyl, four-sided, and can be used as a PORTABLE OPEN WATER JUMP and/or underneath a vertical/oxer. There is a range of colors available including two tone. Note: these are also available to our European clients, shipping from Europe, but in blue only.
Rubber Open Water Jump comes in metric and feet/inches sizes. Standard sizes are all metric. Heavy, specialized, available only from Europe. Historically, most of these sold 3-sided with the 4th side open. We recommend, however, that you select the 4-sided portable version to allow bi-directional course design as a more versatile option. The portable bidirectional Open water jump equivalent is made in the USA and is suitable for Rated Competitions including Young Riders.

Open Water Jumps, Liverpools and Portable Water Jumps - What are the differences?
All liverpools are water jumps, but not all water jumps are liverpools. There are both vinyl and black rubber portable water jumps - which are four sided. Open Water Jumps are very specialized, and involve 3 tall sides and the fourth side open, with specialized methods to seal/protect/measure the horse's jump on the landing side.
You can simulate the size of a permanent open water jump with a four sided portable rubber or vinyl one. Portable rubber and all the smaller liverpools can go underneath a jump (jumping depths to about 6' or so), and the larger jumps are generally considered "Open Water" with no rails above their spans.
If you are considering your choices, to replace an existing permanent rubber water jump - here are some options:
