Our popular AnnaTomicA girth is now available in an updated version! It is more easily adjustable and has a slightly slimmer stud for an even better fit. The carabiner is hidden/protected to reduce the risk of the horse catching its shoes or studs in the carabiner, while at the same time giving the girth a more clean look. The buttons has been replaced with a hidden velcro, and the elastic can easily be replaced if necessary. Adjustable With its unique construction it can easily be adjusted in length to fit your horse perfectly year round. With the short straps, the girth is adjustable between 50-80 cm, and with the long straps 115-145 cm. It is easy and quick to change the size of the girth. Because of its ability to adjust the lenght, the same girth can be used on several horse and also be used in different disciplines by changing the side straps. For example, by using the short straps, it can be used for dressage and mono flap saddles, with the long straps it can be used for saddles with short straps such as jumping saddles and all purpose saddles. Ergonomic The elastic of the girth is centrally located on the horses sternum for extra comfort and stability. Compared to many other girths on the market with elastic on the sides only, the AnnaTomicA will create an even pull when the girth is fitted evenly on both sides. When mounting from the left on a girth with elastic on the sides only, the left elastic will expand because it is closest to the pulling force while the other elastic will basically remain the same, creating an uneven pull and shifting the saddle to the left. With the centrally located elastic, the elastic will expand from the middle, creating a more even pull. The elastic will also allow the chest to expand while breathing and jumping thus increasing the flow of oxygen for maximum performance at all times.The stud ensures excellent pressure distribution and comfort. It has extra soft padding and is covered with a very supple vegetable tanned leather. The unique construction of the girth allows the horse to move freely with shoulder freedom. By easily adjusting the length you make sure the buckles of the short straps are not interfering with the shoulder movement. We recommend adjusting the length of the girth straps so that the buckles will be as close to the bottom of the saddle flaps as possible.
