Sv: martingal
Du har nog tyvärr inte koll på hur många olika varianter av martingal det finns. En av dem har enbart syftet att förhindra att tyglarna hamnar på samma sida. Nu är det ju inte en sådan martingal som TS menar, men det finns fler än en martingal.

"When the horse has thrown its head up really high, the reins only pull the bit towards the ears (head horizontal) and anything one can do with the reins in that angle will be useless. When the horse has its head in a more normal position, the straps are loose and do nothing. It also serves to keep the reins from going over the horse's head and hinders him some from stepping on them, should the rider suddenly dismount.
The irish martingale has the same function of keeping the reins. And there is a simple piece of equipment, if ever there was one. You run the reins through the rings while the strap is under the neck of the horse. This makes the strap go against the underside of the neck if the horse raises the head, and this is where the rings will offer resistance. When the horse behaves well they come out of action. Just one problem...
Most martingales are not long enough, or split enough to allow for an opening rein aid. That might be fine in show jumping, but in dressage it is disasterous. The irish martingale allows almost nothing of movement sideways, and can sometimes hold the reins together closer than the rider would in a neutral position. So they are for jumping and not for basic training on flat ground."
Du har nog inte riktigt förståt det där med martingal och syftet med den:smirk:
