With the EquiAmi it is nigh on impossible for the horse to be gobbed in the mouth from moving its own back legs due to the size of the loop on the roller. There is almost a foot of 'play' each side meaning that the movement of the legs stays independent of the mouth.
Because there's no sawing movement, the front half of the equiami acts similarly, i would say, to the draw rein loop method we see people on here lunging in. In actual fact it is similar but with more play in the equiami as it loops through the bit as well. You only need to adjust one side of the equiami which is a massive time saver for me because of the way you put it on. Unlike with the pessoa where I would have to fiddle both sides at the back and both sides at the front, you just clip on, and adjust on one side.
Mechanically in the pessoa each side of the system is independent whereas in the equiami there can't be any leaning on one side as the pressure is even due to the way it loops through the bit and girth loop. I guess you could describe the equiami as more "fluid".
Does this fill in any gaps Gamebird?
