Sand mastery allows for the manipulation of '''ribbons''' of sand. The number of ribbons someone can control indicates their level of power. Young or weak sand masters may only have strength for a single ribbon, while the most powerful sand masters can utilize over two dozen.{{book ref|ws|1|review=yes}} When using multiple ribbons, a sand master's consciousness will expand to allow better control over them.{{book ref|ws3|4}} The power of a ribbon can increase the more sand is put into it, and a ribbon's precision and speed can be increased with training and practice.{{book ref|ws3|6}}{{book ref|ws|1|review=yes}} The tip of a ribbon contains the concentration of its energy. Attacking a ribbon from the side will make it collapse. Having two ribbons collide directly will make both ribbons collapse.{{book ref|ws2|4}} The more ribbons a sand master is controlling, the faster they will lose water.{{book ref|ws|2|review=yes}}
