Flexi Rein Aid helps the horse ‘forgive' mistakes made by the less than perfect rider. Not only is this better for the horse, but it keeps him willing and easier to ride. Because the horse is rounder and softer with an elastic contact, the rider can focus on ‘feel', position, timing, etc. As the skill level grows, so does the horse's trust in the rider and the wonderful feeling of harmony can be achieved.

• Encourage acceptance of the bit and contact, thus improving self-carriage
• Protect the horse's mouth - the uptake of elastic absorbs any sudden movements on a soft and highly sensitive mouth
• Allow your horse to naturally flex his poll and neck
• Inserts easily attach to your current bridle and promote the feeling of an elasticated, following contact.
• Encourages horses to relax, accept the bit and round through their top-line.
• A leather loop limits the stretch of elastic for precision and safety.
• Teaches the rider the feeling of soft hands without changing their ability to control the horse.
• The reins simply fasten to the bit like a normal pair of reins

Flexi Rein Aid in Training...

All riders, no matter what discipline they ride, seek harmony with their horse (this is where riding seems really easy). This requires a balanced seat, the ability to follow the motion of the horse, tact, and independence of the aids. Any stiffness in the rider will result in a lack of harmony.

Stiffness in the riders arms and hands will cause the horse to become tense, hollow, rigid or downright disobedient. This situation is common and an elastic contact allows the horse to relax and trust the bit.

Professionals are reaching for the Rein-Aid to re-school their sensitive horses that are ‘afraid' of the rider's hand. For these horses, obtaining a contact is very difficult, they simply are not willing to ‘hold hands with the rider'. The slight give in the rein alleviates their fear of being trapped. Also extensively used for horses that are stiff or locked in the jaw, Flexi Rein Aid encourages the horse to chew gently on the bit (creating that saliva we love to see) and soften through their top-line. All this is achieved in a compassionate, safe manner without the need for training aids that artificially force the head down.
