 DISTANCE HARNESS

Independent consumer reviews of this product.

 

DISTANCE HARNESS:

Our Distance Harness has been designed with the priceless expertise of three time Iditarod champion Jeff King.  The harness only reaches about half way down the dog's body, which eliminates the pressure on the dog's hips. Closed cell padding around the neck, adjustable body strap, and reflective tape. More harness information.

DISTANCE HARNESS AS A SKIJORING HARNESS:

The Distance Harness is the harness of choice for skijoring, bikejoring, canicross and dog trekking (see below). Ideal for the use with Springer (a device that mounts on your bike). An ideal harness for roading. This multi-use harness was originally designed for use with police dogs for tracking, leading, and guarding, and has also become popular as a walking harness for pet dog owners. No more choking for hard pulling dogs! Double wide breast plate and an adjustable chest strap.

The Distance Harness works better for skijoring than the standard sled dog harness. The line angle between the dog and the skijorer (or biker, runner) is steeper than the line angle between a dog team and a sled. When a skijoring line is connected to a typical X-back harness, the steeper angle will cause a lifting force on the harness. The design of the Distance Harness creates a flatter line angle and the dog's pull force is more evenly distributed.

This harness is impossible for a dog to back out of! 

Excellent choice of a harness for any dog with lower back problems!

Used and recommended by limited class champion Lou Serre.

photo by © heathsandall.com

 

 

Excellent harness choice for any dog running in wheel in the front of a sled with a low gangline attachment. This harness is longer than the usual X-back harness, therefore relieves pressure off the dog's back. A ring on each side of the harness allows the rear section of the harness to move up and down as the dog runs. Made out of 1 inch wide light weight, extremely durable tubular webbing, Special breast plate design minimizes turning and "under arm" rubbing.  Padding is made out of light weight foam covered in rip-stop shell. Padding extends along the harness's entire length.  Webbing is a multi colored design on a black background. Padding is black.

SKIJORING BELT

 

 

 

Our skijoring equipment is used and recommended by Sona Klikarova, the IFSS Skijoring World Champion and IFSS Canicross World Champion. 

 

This belt is made from compressed, porous, water resistant materials and ensures good extended pulling power. It is recommended to fasten the belt around the hips in order to limit pressure on stomach muscles. The belt features a unique "lowered pull force" design that helps to distribute the pull force to only the hip area covered by the belt as well as the buttocks. This eliminates pressure on the spine. Careful adjustment of the buttocks straps will bring the "lowered pull force" into play.  The most comfortable and professionally designed skijor belt on the market today.  One size fits all. Comes in black color only. ManMat dog team logo embroidered on back side.  

Our Skijoring Belt design is protected by a certificate of registration issued by the Office Of Industrial Copyright of the Czech Republic no. 1487/15816. Reproduction of this design is prohibited.
