The Appropriate Equipment...
To engage in canicross with your dog, you need some basic equipment. It is important to choose gear that fits both the owner and the dog correctly, providing comfort and freedom of movement. Before you start or even during the run, it’s also good to familiarize your dog with basic commands and balance them well during the run.
CANICROSS & SKIJORING
BELT
Run comfortably with your dog
Belts have many adjustment possibilities to accommodate various body shapes.
HARNESS
Consider your dog’s safety.
BUNGEE LEASH
The perfect choice for your dog’s self-control.
The Bungee Leash for dogs may not be intended for professional use in races, but it is an excellent option for any active dog and owner. The Bungee Leash, thanks to its elasticity, has the ability to absorb shocks, determine your dog’s self-control, and is friendly to both your back and your dog’s.
Leashes are available in two lengths, 2 meters and 2.8 meters. The 2-meter leashes provide positive control over your dog and are ideal for canicross and hiking. For activities such as bikejoring and skijoring, where a safe distance from your equipment is required, the length of 2.8 meters is the perfect choice.
The core of the Bungee Leash is made of high-quality rubber, strong enough to withstand even the strongest dogs. It connects to your dog’s harness with a carabiner, which is the safest option. Carabiners usually lock automatically, ensuring that your dog will not get away. There are various types of leashes depending on your requirements.
BIKEJORING & SCOOTER
BIKE ANTENNA
Use the bike safely.
Safety is crucial in high-speed activities, such as Bikejoring. With the help of the Bike Antenna, the Bungee Leash (2.8m) is less likely to get tangled in the front wheel. The Bike Antenna fits most bikes and is easy to assemble. The antenna can be detached without disassembling its base from the bike, which is practical if you use the bike without the dog.
The Bike Antenna is lightweight and durable with a flexible base to follow your dog’s movements in turns and changes in terrain.
Its thickness is 10mm. It can be mounted either on top or below the handlebars.
