The Fairfax Performance Leather Girth is something completely new. By contrast with the all the testing and knowledge accumulated on saddles and saddle-fitting, there is really very little on girths and girthing. Until now. Increases the horse's performance by: Dramatically reducing pressure Significantly increasing range of movement Eliminating gait asymmetry The only girth to have been tested during its development in conjunction with the BEF World Class Programme During squad training, Centaur Biomechanics gait analysis was used to test the effect of the girth on the horses' performance. "We recorded up to 33% improvement in forelimb protraction and general range of motion of every elite horse we tested" - Russell Guire of Centaur Biomechanics Lined with Prolite - known for its ability to distribute pressure, absorb impact and prevent rubbing New construction method allows the Prolite edge "to float" so the horse's muscles can move underneath rather than bang against Combination of the contour and the cushioning creates a buffer zone and prevents a "hard" edge
