Horse girth PerformFree

The PresTeq PerformFree girth is an innovative anatomical girth designed to provide optimal comfort and great freedom of movement for the horse.

Specifications:

• Leather material: vegetable-tanned leather
• Metal material: stainless steel
• Anatomical and innovative girth
• The girth does not restrict the movements of the horse's front legs. Its shape follows the curve behind the front legs, allowing for greater freedom of movement for the shoulders. The extra space enables the horse to lengthen its stride forward.
• The narrower sections of the girth reduce pressure on the horse's ribs. Extra thick and soft padding is placed at the front of these cut-outs, near the front legs, providing additional comfort for the horse.
• At the sternum level, the girth features a wider surface. This surface, combined with the thickness of the material and gel padding, ensures optimal pressure distribution.
• The girth consists solely of rounded shapes, avoiding pressure points on the skin and fascia of the horse.
• The buckles of the girth are located between the muscle attachments of the Latissimus Dorsi and Serratus Ventralis, reducing pressure on muscle attachments during maximal girthing load. Additionally, the girth is equipped with gel padding under the buckles, contributing to better pressure distribution.
• Equipped with a "home ring" to attach training aids. Furthermore, this versatile girth features D-rings on both sides. Thanks to a magnet incorporated into the leather, the metal rings stay securely in place during the horse's movements and do not hinder either the rider or the horse.
• The girths are fitted with stainless steel roller buckles. These buckles have an anatomical shape that minimizes pressure points under the buckles.
• For the dressage girth, both buckles are attached to the same elastic end. This prevents one girth from applying more pressure than the other.
• The versatile girth has a triple elastic on both sides, providing the horse with the necessary freedom of movement to breathe and move unhindered. The elastic is strong enough to keep the saddle in place.
• The elastic of the dressage girth is hidden under the leather and serves as a control point for a well-fitted girth. When the elastic becomes more visible to the rider, there is no need to tighten further; the horse still has enough space to breathe.
• The additional relief at the front of the girth makes it easy to see how to properly position the girth.
• It is essential never to overtighten girths (any girths). The best place to feel if the girth is tight enough is not under the buckles but on the horse's sternum. With the anatomical points and optimal pressure distribution, the girth PresTeq helps to limit or even prevent girth discomfort.
