Pegasus Physio SymmFit 2025

Most riders think the whole hand controls the rein.

But in reality, the ring finger is the finger that stabilises the contact.

What often happens instead is that the middle finger - or even the index finger - starts gripping the rein.

When that happens the contact becomes inconsistent without the rider realising why.

The first step is simply seeing what each finger is doing individually.

The Insight glove lines help make this visible, so you can clearly see which fingers are actually hooked around the rein and which ones are not.

Once you can see it, you can start to fix it!

Many riders end up riding with their wrists too close together and extended, often without realising it. This position can make the hands less stable and the rein contact less consistent as this changes the alignment from elbow to bit when looking from the front/above.

The aim is a more neutral wrist position - where the wrist, hand, and rein sit in a more natural alignment. This helps the rider maintain a steadier contact and clearer communication.

That’s where the lines and colours on the Insight gloves can really help.

The design gives riders clear visual indicators so they can quickly see when the wrists start moving into extension or when the hands come too close together. The lines act as guides, helping riders bring their hands back towards a more neutral and balanced position.

Instead of guessing what your hands are doing, the colours and lines make it easier to notice small changes and correct them sooner.

Sometimes improving your hand position isn’t just about being told what to do - it’s about being able to see it clearly.

I love how the Insight gloves help riders spot these details and understand how small adjustments can make a big difference to their riding.

Thumb position is so important for how the hands work when riding.

A thumb twisted out or sitting off the rein means the small hand muscles have a much harder job stabilising the hand when the fingers need to give that elastic control.

The colours and lines on the Insight gloves help you see when the thumb is twisting or deviating to the side. The reinforced patch and touchscreen pad also make it easier to see which part of the thumb should be resting on the index finger.

Available in these colours, plus pink and blue – with a limited-edition winter version also available (leather with fleece lining!).

Love getting comments like these about the Core training top!
A training top that helps you see your position more clearly in the saddle, while also being really comfortable to wear 🙌

#riderbiomechanics

This top was designed so riders can see their body clearly in the saddle - using lines and colours to highlight alignment, symmetry, and movement.

As a rider physio, I can see exactly what a rider is doing.
But now, with the Core Top, even non-riders can spot when someone is a little bit wonky 👀

No guessing. No overthinking. Just clear visual feedback that actually makes sense.

Available in:
• Long sleeve & short sleeve
• New 26 purple colourway
• Original pink & blue
• Sizes XXXS - XL

#riderbiomechanics #symmfit #riderposition #equestrianclothing

The pink line here isn’t about how it looks –
it’s about what it helps riders see and understand.

The alignment from elbow → wrist → bit gives valuable insight into:
• wrist position and deviation
• forearm rotation
• elbow function
• and how force travels from the rider’s body to the rein

What the gloves do is make that information visible.

The coloured line across the glove gives riders instant feedback:
• when the wrist is straight vs broken
• when the hand is collapsing or over-fixing
• when the rein contact is being distorted by wrist or forearm position

This isn’t about forcing straight arms or holding a position.
It’s about awareness.

If the line bends, twists, or disappears, it often points to something higher up the chain – shoulder tension, elbow restriction, or lack of trunk balance – rather than the wrist itself being “the problem”.

The gloves don’t correct the rider.
They show the rider what’s happening, so they can make informed adjustments.

More understanding how the body is functioning in real time.

That’s how tools should support biomechanics – by improving awareness, not overriding feel.

The SymmFit range helps you see your position and posture from the front, back and sides 🙌

The point of the SymmFit contrast panels isn’t fashion – it’s feedback.

They make it easy for riders (and coaches) to see shoulder and hip alignment and whether the rider is:
• leaning back
• tipping forward
• or stacked upright over the horse

Most riders can’t feel small changes in their posture – especially when the horse is moving.

But now they can see them.

The panels create clear visual lines so asymmetry, tilt, or collapse shows up instantly on video or in the mirror – no guessing, no vague “sit up” instructions.

That’s how riders start to connect:
-what they see
-with what they feel
-with what the horse feels.

And that’s how real change happens.

🔗www.symmfit.co.uk

👀 A small change in thumb position changes everything.

Turning the thumb slightly up alters which muscles in the hand are working, how much passive friction there is against the reins, and how stable and sensitive the contact feels.
It can completely change how the hand functions - even when everything else looks the same.

The black touchscreen thumb print on the glove is brilliant for two reasons.
From the ground it gives a clear visual of where the thumb is sitting, and for the rider it acts as a simple instruction - gently create a thumbprint on the reins, as if the ink is transferring.

It works especially well for children.
Press too hard and the print would smudge.
Too lightly and you wouldn’t see the pattern.
The goal is just enough pressure for a clear, steady contact.

That balance is exactly what we want through the reins.

The Core training top isn’t just useful in the saddle.

The SymmFit lines help you see symmetry (or asymmetry) off the horse as well – which makes it great to use in the gym or when doing rider exercises.

If one side is loading more, twisting, or dropping, it’s often much easier to spot when you’ve got clear visual reference points rather than relying on feel alone.

That awareness matters just as much off the horse as it does on it.
If you can see it, you can start to control it.

Really useful for:
• Gym sessions
• Home exercises
• Warm-ups
• Anyone working on posture and balance, not just riding

Plus made from a technical fabric designed for sports so doesn’t hamper you movement or cling to you. And even better it wicks away sweat (no more sweat patches!)

What you feel vs what you see can be very different when it comes to your hands!

That’s why photos and video can be such a shock for riders.

Looking down in the moment often isn’t accurate… unless you have something specific to look at.

The colours and lines on Insight Gloves give your brain something to analyse, instead of just looking down and seeing what you want to see.

These photos are from an hour or two at the London International Horse Show last month. Once riders tried the gloves on and actually looked at their hands, they flew off the shelves.

Suddenly it wasn’t “I think that’s correct”
• it was patterns and colours the brain could process properly.

There’s also a new six-week course, included free when you buy the gloves, to help you use them as a proper training tool - not just gloves.

🔗www.symmfit.co.uk

👏 The Insight gloves are a great training tool, and the course explains the lines and colours on the gloves – why they’re there and how they can help you in your riding. It looks at how thumb, finger, wrist, elbow, and shoulder movement all contribute to developing the elastic, light contact riders are aiming for.

The gloves are largely self-explanatory, but for a deeper level of understanding and long-term change, improving body awareness makes a real difference.

As a rider physio, I see every day that lasting improvement doesn’t come from simply correcting a position once, but from understanding what you’re feeling and why. The course is designed to support that process, helping you use the gloves more purposefully and turn the visual feedback they give you into meaningful, long-term changes in your riding.

This is about getting the most out of a tool – making your training more effective, improving awareness, and helping those improvements carry over into everyday riding.

The Insight Gloves make it much easier to see what your hands and wrists are doing without being told! A lot of riders struggle with hand position and these Insight gloves help with that.

From the ground, you can quickly spot wrists turning in, dropping down, lifting up, or fingers and thumbs opening. But more importantly you can also see it yourself when you look down while riding. You can correct it yourself by using the colours and lines to find the neutral position with riding we all want.

And that’s the key part - when you can see it, you can start to fix it.

Simple visual feedback. Clear awareness. Better control through the hand and rein.

4 different gloves, all designed to help 😊.

#ridingexplained #riderbiomechanics #horseriding #horseriders

The SymmFit training tops are such a powerful training aid - even without mirrors or a coach

Yes, it takes a bit more effort.
But that time and understanding are invaluable for long-term change - and actually keeping it.

Actively analysing your body using the lines and colours forces you to really look at how you’re sitting and moving. You adjust what you see to what looks better… even when it initially feels wrong.

They were created to help riders see clearly what I see as a rider physio but non riders can spot the asymmetries.

Because it’s that moment when something feels unfamiliar but the visual feedback tells you it’s correct - is where real learning happens. It’s been great showing that to riders at the LIHS. Even just standing and moving with the top on and seeing a photo they are becoming more awareness of where the problem comes from. So they can start to change it off horse with mirrors and then apply it on horse 🙌

That visual confirmation helps your brain trust the new position, instead of defaulting back to old habits. And that’s what creates changes that last, not just something that works for one session.

Rather than being told what to do, you problem-solve, adapt, and learn.

And as you change your body, the horse changes their movement too - giving you immediate, positive, real-time feedback that reinforces the new position.

Not a fan of public speaking, but really pleased with how I (hopefully!) explained and sold the benefits of the SymmFit by @pegasus_physiotherapy Core Training Top to the audience during the mini Dragon’s Den-style talk in the Talk Horse Live Zone.

It helps massively when you have a great presenter who puts you at ease - thank you @alannaclarkeequestrian !

Not a bad audience either… although I suspect a few were mainly there waiting for Pippa and Tristan to come on after me with their @talkhorseofficial show 😂

Completely outside my comfort zone on stage (and with a microphone!), but absolutely worth it to help raise awareness of how important it is for riders to invest in themselves to better support their horse.

Come and see me at stand L325 or have a look at the range online 🙌

👋No two riders do the same thing with their hands – and most don’t realise what they’re doing until they get visual feedback.

Riders are often told they have “issues with their hands” or the contact, but not why, or what to actually change.

Using the Insight Gloves makes hand position, thumb angle and wrist alignment visible straight away – so riders can see where neutral really is (even when it feels completely unnatural at first). Couldn’t do this at the show without the great reins from @henryjamessaddlery 🙌

The important bit isn’t just seeing it, though – it’s understanding how to correct it and why that improves finger control, rein feel and consistency of contact.

At LIHS, we’ll be walking riders through exactly that – insight first, correction second, and better control as the result.

This rider couldn’t decided which colours so we went with one of each in her Rider Physio session!

The gloves are so good at helping riders see exactly what they are doing with their hands and how to start to correct them 🙌

And for me to see clearly what their fingers are doing- you would be amazed at how many pairs of fingers don’5 match each other left to right 🙈
