dragonfly reins

Hmmmmm, looks a lot like the straps western riders use on their snaffles a lot of the time.
 
Looks like a very expensive coupling, have no idea why they have applied for a patent for it when there has been similar things around for years. We use a coupling on all our youngsters to keep the bit more stable in their mouths.
 
I rode my horse Panda that is built downhill and loves to go on her forehand, in the new reins , the reins were better than I expected, the reins kept the horse straight, she wanted to move into the bridle, not lean when she is in regular reins. The canter was fabulous!! One of the best new products I have ever had the privilege to use.
I also watch one of my students ride my 17 h oldenburg, he pulls her forward through the entire ride, he did not pull, she was able to maintain a deep seat and he stopped on a dime.
I am going to use the reins on my horses I have in training to keep them balanced and strait.
