Performance Western was designed for Western sports horses, seeking to optimize comfort and performance whilst reducing stresses, particularly on joints, in order to enhance the sports longevity.
Key benefits:
-
Multidirectional Rolling: Reduces the effort required for movement in all directions (forward, medial, and lateral), thereby preserving the locomotor structures;
-
Inner Rim: Minimize friction between the horseshoe and the ground, helping the sand exit and providing more traction;
-
Wear Bar: Protects toe area against a premature wear, helping the shoes last longer and sometimes allowing a reset.
-
Wide support area: Wider support on the hoof side than regular aluminum shoes, providing a better load distribution and protecting the heels;
-
Sole Relief: Prevents direct contact between the sole of the hoof and the horseshoe, thereby eliminating pressure on the sole. Highly effective for horses with sole sensitivity;
-
Groove: Improves the shoes' adhesion to the hoof, thereby preventing the shoe from shifting after application.
