EQUESTIC SADDLECLIP HITS THE UK
MARKET JUST IN TIME FOR CHRISTMAS
A new technology based ‘saddle clip’ has been brought to the
UK exclusively by equestrian outfitters, The Drillshed.
The Equestic Saddleclip and associated app, can detect changes
and trends in the horse’s movement. Within seconds the rider
is measuring key stats on their horse’s symmetry, rhythm,
elevation, activity on either rein and intensity of work.
Equestic is an easy-to-fit, durable saddle clip that attaches onto
the rear of the left saddle flap, behind the riders leg. The data
can be used to improve performance, establish correct training
regimes and even identify potential causes for future injury.
Already a huge success in the Netherlands, Equestic Saddleclip
helps you to train your horse to become a “Happy Athlete” and
raise your own awareness of the progress you have both made.
RRP £220.00

The new license will protect the welfare of dogs being
bred and animals being sold commercially, and ensure
better standards of boarding, riding centres and animal

The new welfare-focused standards will mean people will

home and day care)
