THIS IS NO ORDINARY GILET
Ten years' collaboration with Orthopaedic surgeons, riding professionals and Physio's has delivered this one-of-a-kind design protected Rider Gilet by 4DflexiSPORT.
We found that, compared to other traditional bracing methods, better results could be achieved by adopting a waistcoat [gilet] design.
We also discovered that the stigma about wearing posture correction aids often discourage their use. With this in mind, we have concealed the components that bring shoulders back, control the shoulder blades, straighten your spine and align shoulders with hips cleverly inside the gilet.
Powerful elements, again integrated, lift the diaphragm [upper body] away from lower body and horse activity resulting in lighter hand-to-horse contact, and the all-important independent seat.
Unlike most postural gadgetry, our Rider Gilet does not weaken musculoskeletal structures or create dependency, instead it enables you to strengthen muscles correctly, without risk of injury.
Lycra side panels expand to accommodate both male and female body shape. A low-profile fit means that it can be worn under a back protector, or as an outer layer with recent ruling making it permissible in competitions.
