By understanding the roles and importance of each element, riders can effectively utilize the EquiBalance® Training Rein, promoting optimal progression, while prioritizing the safety and comfort of their horses.


Key elements of the EquiBalance® Training Rein
Key elements of the EquiBalance® Training Rein

A. Principal Pulley


The principal pulley precisely regulates the rein’s length ratio based on the direction of lateral bending. This ensures balanced, even contact with the bit—crucial for clear communication and biomechanical alignment.

B. Side Pulleys:


Positioned to maintain the correct rein angle and a safe length, while allowing the rein to follow the natural movement of the horse’s neck. Their protective function prevents undue pressure on the jaw and tongue, ensuring both comfort and safety.

C. Neck Piece & Regulator Elastic:


The position of the neck piece and the length of the adjustable breast strap determine the size of the frame. These elements should be set according to the horse’s body conformation, physical condition, and level of training.

▪️ Positioning the neck piece closer to the poll creates a wider frame, promoting openness.

▪️ Moving it toward the withers results in a shorter frame, encouraging collection.

The regulator elastic adds essential flexibility to the system, allowing it to adapt fluidly to the horse’s dynamic movements.

D. Trigger Carabiner:


Made of high-quality stainless steel, these durable carabiners allow for quick and effortless adjustments—providing reliability, longevity, and ease of use during training.

E. Safety Elastic: 


The safety elastic plays an important role in ensuring the system's secure positioning, especially during lunging and free-training sessions. Its utilization is crucial to maintain safety protocols.


Performance & Training Advantages

Consistent use of the EquiBalance® Training Rein can significantly assist in rehabilitating horses with issues related to mobility, flexibility, and collection.

It enhances overall performance and helps maintain optimal physical condition.Additionally, it provides novice riders with the experience of correct contact—helping them develop a feel that they can later reproduce independently, without relying on auxiliary reins.
