two reins

[andreo]

Hi does anyone know where I can buy some split reins, i.e. two seperate reins at the bit that become just one rein that you need to hold. I am not sure the proper name for them and I think I have seen something similar used by showjumpers. I event and ride my mare in a english gag as she leans but this means I do not have a lot of steering so need to use two reins really but two reins xc is a handfull if you lose them and need to get them back. Thanks

Do you mean roundings, or a rein that actually splits? Roundings are bought as well as the reins, not actually part of them though so I'm not sure if that's what you mean. Anyway if it's roundings you're after I reckon most online tack shops will have them? Think I have a pair floating round somewhere that I bought and never used!

There are some here, but I've got no idea on the reliability of the shops!

Hi no I dont mean rounding as I have some of these. It is a rein which attaches in two seperate places and then becomes one rein further along.
