Details are no minor matter. They are what the product is all about. With 14 specially developed technologies and patented functions, this Decision Layer keeps the rider performing well under all conditions. This first layer has to cool the body during the strenuous work with a horse. And during calm rides on cold days, it has to be able to warm. To fulfill these needs, 3D-BionicSphere® System, ISO-Pads™ and ExpansionRibs™ work together in a perfect interface. The compression zone at the torso protects internal organs from shocks, and the extra-thin full contact zone on the bottom and the inner thighs secure the direct contact to the horse.
