Exterior Leg
Protection
The SMB-II® provides exterior leg protection against injuries caused by hits
from hooves, debris, and other horses. The high-density, closed-cell
limestone-based neoprene enables the SMB0II® to absorb and dissipate high levels
of energy from hits. Between the neoprene and the horse's leg is a layer of
UltraShock™ lining. Together, the neoprene and UltraShock™ material provide
360-degrees of exterior leg protection.
Energy Absorption
Testing at Oklahoma State University has
proven that the Professional's Choice SMB-II® absorbs an average of 26% of
energy from hoof concussion - four times greater than traditional wraps.
Suspensory Support
To support the fetlock, the lower suspensory strap stretches and cradles the
extended leg while still giving it the freedom to perform its function. It
prevents the fetlock from overextending and causing injury to the ligaments.
During use, the boot, fetlock strap and the hook straps stretch to conform with
the movement of the horse's leg. This stretching action can be repeated tens of
thousands of times without losing the SMB-II's® integrity.
