Aaron Vale Rein-3 Padded Hand Grips

$169.00 USD

Created in collaboration with Aaron Vale, one of America's most successful and prolific Grand Prix Showjumping riders. 

The rein was invented to offer more comfort and stability with unique padded hand stitched grips.  It offers incredible comfort for the rider's hands. The rein adjusts so the grips can be placed precisely where the horse and rider find their best connection.  It improves the straight line from the bit to the elbow and encourages more relaxed arms and softer hands.  

For dressage or jumping these reins provide riders of all skill levels a more comfortable and simpler way of keeping their rein length.  

This rein is a training tool to help riders and horses create muscle memory that can be recalled for competition.

Hand grips are 4 inches (10cm) apart.

Helped tremendously

I have always had a horrible habit of letting my reins get longer and longer as I ride. It did not matter what I tried, they would get long. It was getting to the point where I wasn't establishing a good connection with my horse, and it was showing in our performance. I got these reins a few weeks ago and I am genuinely shocked with how well it works; I can finally ride around and maintain a connection with my horse's mouth without my reins slowly slipping looser and looser. I recently showed my horse in the 1.0m jumpers at an A rated show and had some amazing rounds while using these reins. I use the shortest hand grip for jumping, the middle grip for flatwork, and the longest grip for walking on a looser rein. My horse gives many thanks for these reins!

Another added bonus not many will relate to... but these reins are a life saver after a night of braiding. I braid 4-6 horses each night at shows and ride my horse in classes during the day. It is brutal on my hands to braid and often times my fingers are cut up, swollen, and sore after a night of braiding - these reins are soft and make it easier for me to hold the reins post braiding!

Great quality, unparalleled training tool!!

I used these reins for several months as a working student, and they helped me to make huge improvements in my riding. Now, as an instructor and owner of my own small teaching/training business, I bought a pair to use in lessons with my students. I absolutely love these reins for helping riders to learn how to maintain contact with even rein length, for teaching proper hand mechanics, and I like to use them in conjunction with the CorrectConnect Position Reminder to show students the feeling of maintaining proper upper body positioning and rein length while steering. These reins are great quality and very comfortable to hold for riders of all ages. I am a huge advocate of CorrectConnect products and will continue to be a satisfied, happy customer!

Veil rein 3 padded hand grips

These reins have given me my riding life back. Following a severe bacterial infection in my hand in February I have lost feeling in my thumb index and middle fingers. In my right hand. I had no grip at all. Since using these reins I have control back as the reins do not slip through my fingers and I have started to get more strength in the hand too as it’s a form of exercise. Thank you 🤩

Tabs are a bit bulky for small hands, definitely like how they keep my hands even
