Category Bridles & Safety
Definition MagneticForce is the SUNRIDE safety system for NoPanic magnetic reins. When activated, the reins are held in place by two strong magnets. If sufficient tension is created during a fall or an unexpected movement, the magnetic connections can detach.
How does MagneticForce work? To activate, the additional snap button is opened. The connection is then held exclusively by the two magnets. If the bridle is pulled off the horse's head, for example during a fall, the magnetic connection can release under tension. As a result, the reins are detached from the bridle and can slide over the horse's neck.
Benefits The system was developed to reduce dangerous situations where reins and bridles remain firmly attached to each other after a fall. This is intended to lower the risk of the horse getting tangled in the reins or the rider being dragged due to a firm connection.
Activation & Deactivation With the snap button open, the MagneticForce mechanism is activated and the reins are held only by the magnets. If the snap button remains closed, there is a fixed additional connection and the automatic release mechanism is deactivated.
Areas of application NoPanic magnetic reins can be used for daily riding as well as in various disciplines. The safety system can be particularly helpful in situations where strong pulling forces act on the reins and bridle during a fall, a sudden stop, or an unexpected movement.
Important to know MagneticForce is an additional safety system and cannot completely prevent accidents. For the desired release mechanism, the snap button must be opened before use. Furthermore, the equipment permitted at a tournament always depends on the currently applicable regulations and the respective competition.
