HKM Anatomical V Dressage Girth without Elastic
The HKM anatomical V dressage girth is made of leather. It provides equal pressure on the girth billets through the V-system, optimizing the saddle’s pressure distribution.
This girth is ideal for:
Saddles where the girth billets are mounted in a V-formation or are uneven.
Horses whose shape changes significantly around the girth groove, causing uneven girth pressure.
Anatomical Shape of the Girth
The anatomical shape allows freedom of movement for the forelegs and elbows, providing space for the skin and coat to move freely.
Advantages of the Anatomical Dressage Girth
The specific design allows room for the elbow to move freely, ensuring comfort and full range of motion for the horse.
The anatomically shaped leather parts feature very soft padding and offer a large contact surface, ensuring optimal pressure distribution.
The asymmetrical anatomical design is especially suitable for round horses or ponies where the girth tends to move forward.
The buckles are connected with strong nylon straps, balancing each other for optimal pressure distribution.
Uneven Pressure on the Girth Billets?
Have you ever noticed that when you tighten your saddle, one billet feels tighter than the other? This can cause the front or rear of the saddle to press more on one part of the horse’s back — which is undesirable.
A V-system dressage girth might be the solution. The buckles of this girth are connected with strong nylon straps that balance the pressure evenly between both billets.
Uneven billet pressure often occurs with V-girthing system saddles or on horses with round bellies that become thicker right behind the girth area.
The V-system girth can also help stabilize the rear of the saddle if your saddle has a V-girthing system. This system distributes pressure across the entire saddle, helping the back part sit securely on the horse’s back. If the rear billet has less tension than the front one, the saddle may lift at the back — the V-system girth can solve this issue.
