Correct Connect™ - 3-in-1 Training Breastplate

A Must-Have Training Aid for All Riders! The Correct Connect™ 3-in-1 Training Breastplate is a game-changer, helping riders of all levels and backgrounds worldwide. Whether you’re working on balance while trotting or seeking a more direct connection to your horse’s mouth, this versatile tool addresses multiple training issues with just one piece of equipment.

Key Features:

• Enhanced Connection: The T-Grips on the breastplate limit excessive pulling, promoting a straight line from the bit to the elbow. This encourages a softer elbow and a more relaxed, effective connection.
• Improved Carriage: Horses ridden with this breastplate often exhibit a more correct and uphill carriage.
• Corrective Aid: Unlike leverage-based aids, this breastplate does not force a horse’s head into a fixed position. Instead, it assists riders in achieving a proper forward feel and encourages the horse to seek contact.

Addresses Common Issues:

• Incorrect Hand Position: Prevents widening or lowering of hands that pulls the horse’s head down.
• Balancing Issues: Helps avoid hanging onto the horse’s mouth for balance.
• Jumping Faults: Reduces the chance of catching the horse’s mouth on the backside of a jump.
• Turning Problems: Minimizes pulling on the inside rein during turns.
• Locked Elbows: Aids in achieving a more fluid, natural elbow movement.

Design and Functionality:

• Versatile Use: Functions as a plain breastplate, with a neck strap, or with its unique training attachment.
• Adjustable Fit: Crafted from high-quality leather and elastic, it attaches securely to the D-Rings for saddle stability and allows freedom of shoulder movement.
• Rubber-Lined Leather Neck Strap: Compliant with FEI neck strap rules, it offers additional flexibility and comfort.
• Adjustable T-Grips: Fully adjustable and detachable, these grips help riders maintain stable hand positions and understand how the horse should seek the bridle.
• Compatibility: Ideal for both dressage and jumping.

Available Colors:

• Black
• Brown

Sizing and Fit:

• Pony: 40"-49" (102cm-124.5cm)

• Extra Full: 58"-66" (147cm-168cm)

How to Measure:

1. Measure from D-Ring to D-Ring around the horse’s chest. Ensure the measurement is slightly loose to avoid a too-tight fit and ensure the T-Grips are positioned correctly.

Fitting Instructions:

1. The collar should fit comfortably around the base of the neck and attach securely to the D-Rings of the saddle.
2. Adjust the toggles to one of two rings on the collar based on the horse's size.
3. To encourage the horse to seek contact, gently lift against the horse's neck.
4. Many riders prefer to hold the toggle between the middle and ring fingers while holding the reins normally between the ring and little fingers.

Recommendation: Warm up your horse before using the T-Grips and ensure they are adjusted to avoid restricting arm movement. For optimal results, use under the guidance of a qualified instructor.
