ACAVALLO

Horses love this new Acavallo bit for a wide variety of reasons:
– It is made of an innovative, anti-allergic plastic material instead of a heavy and/or cold metal or metal allloy.
– Its slightly arched and flattened mouthpiece ensures that pressure on tongue, yaws and mouth corners, if applicable, is distributed evenly.
– The one-piece design of mouthpiece and rings prevents a one-sided squeezing or pinching of tongue or yaws, as well as painful irritations of the palate (no “nutcracker effect”).
– It enhances confidence of the horse in the rider’s hand because of its quiet and comfortable positioning in the mouth, helping the horse to find its own balance.
– Due to its integrated, flexible steel cable reinforcement, this bit provides for a soft, yet very secure control of the horse.
An ideal choice especially for the schooling of young and the correction of difficult horses.

Due to the sales success of the AcavalloGel Seat Savers and considerable positive feedback from the customers, also telling them about their orthopaedic problems, Acavallo decided to develop this product line one step further to help riders suffering from the effects of their coccyx, pubis or seat bones.

The result of this development are their new “Seat Saver” models called “ORTHO-COCCYX” (featuring a recess in the rear part of the seat) and “ORTHO-PUBIS” (with a recess in the front part) designed for pressure relief in the respective problem areas around the coccyx and seat bones or the pubis, resp., providing a more balanced weight distribution for affected persons and, thus, also a more comfortable, less inhibited and safer seat.

The non-slip and breathable Acavallo gel of these seat savers supports the rider’s upper body by stabilizing the seat bones, preventing unnecessary movements and increasing her/his adhesion to the saddle. In addition, the shock-absorbing effect of the gel significantly reduces concussions in the lower back.

Discrete and easy to fit to any saddle, these Gel Seat Savers are the right choice for any rider wanting to gain relief during daily flat work, jumping or hacking, achieving a safe and stable seat.

Acavallo offers two different product types : Gel In Seat Saver with Dry-Lex surface where the gel is covered with a breathable mesh material offering traction and a soft feel, and Gel Out Seat-Saver, where the rider is seated on top of the adhesive gel material, with the textile mesh material facing towards the saddle surface. The Gel Out design is especially appreciated by novice
riders for the adhesion and stability it provides.

Available for jumping and dressage saddles.

This product is an easy-care product. Just wash under running water or machine wash at low temperature.

This is a light and sturdy stirrup from Acavallo. This stirrup has an innovative transverse suspension, which allows the stirrup leather to hang 'unturned' downwards. The stirrup is super durable and bolted on tightly. It has an extra wide stainless steel support surface to relieve the hip, knee, ankles and calves.

Due to the laser processing and a ribbed profile, the support surface repels dirt.

Colors black and titanium, one size.

These are the acavallo adjustable stirrups with stainless steel pad. They are in black color and one size.

Acavallo® socks are made from high-tech yarns for a perfect fit and durability. Our product line includes a top model with Thermolite® and EKS fibers. Thermolite® fabric and insulation provides warmth and comfort without weight. EKS fibers absorb and divert moisture from the skin quickly which keeps your feet dry.

This is the acavallo arena alupro safety stirrup.

The stirrup bow is made of aluminum and the opening arm is made of a special polyamide material. The stirrup pad is made of polyamide also and the tread is fabricated from stainless steel.

The “AluPro” model, in principle, provides the same safety function as the Arena “HiFlex”, but it is based on different materials.

These stirrups provide an unique, stress-actuated locking and release mechanism located between the lower end of the outer, pivoting stirrup arm and the foot support plate/tread.

There is also an easy and reliable “one-click” re-engagement of the stirrup locking and release mechanism once triggered.

Due to its design and construction which is based on flexible polymers, the stirrup conveys a less rigid and much more comfortable feeling to the rider than when using conventional products

The springing stirrup bow and foot support assembly is capable of effectively absorbing and compensating for short-term and sudden impacts through the rider’s weight from the top, like during posting, jumping or hacking.

These stirrups have serious advantages for the rider: strong relief of foot bottoms, ankles, knees and hips. For this reason they are also very good for riders that have orthopedic problems.

These stirrups are available in one size and in four colors : black, aluminium, titanium and blue.

“Piuma” is Italian and means “feather”(very light and soft).

Acavallo proudly presents its innovative Piuma light weight jodhpur boots made of a new thermoplastic material providing an excellent wearing comfort and freedom of movement, combined with an extremely low weight and a high degree of shock absorption.

Made with lateral elastic panels to take them easy and off and for a perfect fit. The boots also have a detachable insole.

This is a waterproof and easy care product, washable under running water.

The boots are also resistant to high temperature fluctuations.

Made in Italy

This is a fantastic gel pad that offers therapeutic shock absorption with added security of the non-slip properties of the gel on both sides.

The non-slip properties allow the saddle to adhere to the top and bottom side to the numnah/square or the horses back if used on its own.

It will stop any unwanted movement of the saddle both back & forth and side to side. A real asset if saddles rotate on the 'rounder' horses & ponies. The saddle is then cradled in a luxurious sheepskin on the front & back of the pad.

The Acavallo sheepskin is a natural material.

It doessn't cause allergies. The pad is very soft and delicate, and perfectly suited to prevent abrasions and blisters. It is shaped and molded to the saddle with a slightly thinner depth of gel running down the center of the pad allowing the gel to sit up in the gullet rather than pushing down on the wither and spine.

World’s number one champions, Charlotte Dujardin and Scott Brash uses Acavallo Gel Pad Sheepskin.

This gel encourages freedom of movement for the horse, stabilizes the saddle on the horse, relieves pressure from the horse and  absorbs and distributes weight.

The gel is of course non toxic and safe for use on the skin of your horse.

It is easy to wash and 100 % natural.

The gel is dense and soft. It absorbs shocks and breathes naturally, wicking away moisture.

How to clean it :

- use a stiff brush to remove hair and dirt 

- a vacuum cleaner removes loose hair and dirt 

- rub the sheepskin with some softener and brush again

- put the pad in a washing net

- use a wool detergent and softener

- wash at 30° (gentle cycle) 

- knock the pad to remove the extra water and brush again 

- dry in a ventilated and dry place until the pad is completely dry (avoid direct sunlight)

- When the pad is dry, brush for the last time

Available in different colors.

The Acavallo Classic Gel pad allows the skin to breathe while maintaining excellent contact with the saddle. The shaped gel with which it is composed makes it thicker than a traditional pad, but guarantees a dual purpose, both anti-slip and shock-absorbing. A great strength is to avoid any unwanted movement of the saddle in any direction: forward, back and sideways. Furthermore, the Gel is able to compensate for the small imperfections of the horse’s back, making it suitable also for the backs that are a bit more “rounded”. The central part of the pad has a smaller thickness which allows it to adapt better to the withers and to the back of the horse, thus guaranteeing more space between the saddle and the Gel which allows a continuous air circulation. The Acavallo® Classic Gel is hypoallergenic, non-toxic and does not react negatively in contact with the skin, characteristics that allow the pad to be used directly in contact with it. The Gel can also be cut and then adapted, if necessary, to each type of saddle.

The Acavallo Classic Gel 20mm thickness Jump seat saver with Dri-Lex ensures maximum safety and comfort for the rider thanks to its revolutionary design that exploits the unique qualities of shock absorption of the Acavallo® therapeutic Gel.

The technical composition of the Gel in addition to supporting the chest of the rider, reduces, in case of sudden movements, the traumas of the lower back and the neck.

The Gel is covered, at the top, with Dri-Lex Acavallo®, a fabric that combines hydrophobic and hydrophilic fibers in a composite structure that is unique in the industry. The inner layer stays dry, while the outer layer acts as a micro reservoir for sweat, and the moisture is literally vaporized.
Dri-Lex fabrics are engineered to enhance nature’s work. They rapidly move moisture through performance equipment to keep the body dry and comfortable.

The seat cover is equipped with an elastic strap with velcro which runs longitudinally along the lower part of the saddle and hooks onto the panles, without changing the normal saddle supports.
In the two side parts, the seat saver, is equipped with two straps with grip that are hooked on the inner part of the saddle cushions, without affecting their normal positions.
The coupling system thus makes it possible not to modify the original structure of the saddle, while providing the typical elegant design of Acavallo products.

Using the Acavallo seat saver is also the ideal and money-saving solution for the comfort of older saddles, with worn seats.

Due to the gel production process, it may be advisable to clean the gel with warm water before the initial use and make sure the saddle is well oiled and not dry to avoid any color transfer from the gel. In these rare cases, it is sufficient to oil the saddle carefully to remove any marks for a period of 2 weeks.

The Arco Evolution AluPro stirrup is made of a certified high-grade aluminium material and has been designed to have a maximum weight of 320 g each, being much lower than the average weight of standard steel stirrups.
Acavallo has carefully chosen and combined the materials used, following detailed research and comprehensive testing.

The tread cover is made of stainless steel, with long horizontal holes. The 5° inclination helps the riders to assume the correct posture, relieving tension in ankles, calves, knees and hips.

Not only, this special design prevents the accumulation of sand and dirt, as guarantees an optimal grip in all conditions; stainless steel guarantees a long product life cycle.

The new range of matt colors gives a modern and elegant effect to the stirrups.

Horses loves this new Acavallo Wave Sensitive Bit for a wide variety of reasons:
– Innovative bit made of a newly developed anti-allergic plastic material instead of a heavy and/or cold metal alloy.
– Due to its integrated, flexible steel cable reinforcement, this bit provides for a soft, yet very secure control of the horse.
– The one-piece design of mouthpiece and rings prevents a one-sided squeezing or pinching of tongue or yaws, as well as painful irritations of the palate.
– The new design, featuring a multitude of small “waves”, is a real aid when working horses with hardened or naturally special and sensitive mouths alike.
Thanks to the wave-shaped design of its mouthpiece, horses learn not to push in to or lean on the bit.
The bit’s waves and its lightweight, one-piece structure are stimulating the chewing activity of the horse, while schooling it to gently and evenly approach the well-balanced mouthpiece.
It enhances confidence of the horse in the rider’s hand because of its quiet and comfortable positioning in the mouth, helping the horse to find its ideal balance under the rider.
An ideal choice especially for the schooling of stronger young and the correction/retraining of difficult horses.

The most striking features of these products are their new gel structure and their innovative, horizontal airflow pattern. In contrast to the previous, quite massive Air Release structure, this new gel design provides a multitude of little bulges with lateral holes permitting an even more effective, horizontally directed air cicrculation and increased shock absorption. Besides creating a cushion effect every time they are compressed, the bulges generate a flow of refreshing air that keeps the back of the horse perfectly dry. Moreover, the new open bulge structure will enable us to use less material, resulting in a substantial decrease of the gel pad weight (almost 20% less compared to previous Air Release pads). This new patented technology will be applied to the three Air Release models from now on and we intend to apply it to a wider range of gel products in the near future.

This extremely light weight gel pad can be used directly on the horses back or between numnah and saddle.

It is very popular within the showing world as it is very good at stopping saddles from rolling side to side.

It also helps stop saddles slipping up the neck and slipping backwards. The product can be cut with a pair of scissors for smaller saddles.

The active soft gel pad is a easy care non toxic breathable product that is machine washable (30oC) or by simply running under water using a mild soap.

The Acavallo Piuma Air Release Featherlight Pad with Eco - Wool offers a technologically advanced design perfect for the discerning horse and rider. Made of an ultra-lightweight thermoplastic material, this pad helps absorb shock throughout your ride. The weaved designed creates holes throughout, allowing for ventilation and reduced heat build-up. The slightly contoured shape helps keep it in place while the thin design will not alter saddle fit. Finished with eco-wool trim, this pad has an elegant look. Whether you're a dressage rider, a jumper, or an eventer, this pad is a great choice for keeping your horse comfortable

Washing Instructions for Eco-Wool Products:

This is the special acavallo contoured gel bit guard.

Already the first generation of the Acavallo Gel Bit Guards was a big international success.

However, Acavallo is striving for a continuous improvement of its products.

With the development and design of the new CONTOURED Gel Bit Guards, Acavallo wants to implement new standards for this product in terms of its functionality, durability and compliance with different national horse show regulations.

These bit guards don't need anymore the formerly used projecting protectors because of the a concave (curved inward) shape on their inner surface (to the mouth) and a convex (curved outward) shape on their outer surface (to the bit ring).

The advantages of this new design are very clear: The risks of rubbing or chafing on the outer skin of the mouth corners are mitigated, as these sensitive areas remain widely untouched.

Furthermore, the free movability of the bit and the bit rings, as well as the natural chewing mechanism of the horse, are not inhibited in any way.

Once attached to the bit, the special soft gel material keeps the bit guards in their correct position, avoiding rotation or any other unwanted movements and enhancing a precise und undisturbed control of the bit by the rider.

The Acavallo Contoured Gel Bit Guard is suitable for all equestrian disciplines.

The product was made in Italy.

It is available in one size and in black color.

Another great acavallo product that is a big help for rider and horse and this at a very reasonable price.

It is very easy to wash.

It comes in one size, in the colors black, white and blue.
