The AKA powered by Stübben chest band prevents the training saddle and also the surcingle from slipping. It is therefore particularly suitable for training young horses. It also can be helpful for cinchy and girthy horses to allow the girth to be tightened very smoothly and prevent the saddle to slip back when the horse shows an undesired behavior. It is an indispensable tool that should not be missing in any training bag. The starter saddle provides special D-rings for this unique safety tool.
