Scientific studies have proven that a tightened
Girth inhibits optimum performance of a horse. Specifically,
a rigid girthing affects the respiratory function and compresses
the muscles, thereby
reducing the blood flow and supply of oxygen. This can result
in contractures, spasms, impaired action, reduced power, uneven
gates, defense reactions and refusals.
The solution is a Girth designed to move with the horse.
The Tixerant Comfort Girth is radical in its simplicity, incorporating a wide center section of a technical material made by Gibaud(a medical textile company) the girth offers a high capacity for elongation, allowing your horses ribs to expand and contract without any restriction. This unique elastic panel also covers a much larger area of your horses belly than usual to reduce pressure and virtually eliminate the risk of pinching. Yet, despite the elasticity, it keeps the saddle in place more effectively than a standard girth, due to an integrated non-slip pad on the inside, positioned over the sternum to keep the saddle centralized and fully secure.
