Easyboot Glue-Ons and Easyboot Gloves were well represented at the Duck Mt Carmel Three Day.
Day One.
1st Place- Christoph Schork and DWA Powerball
2nd Place- Tennessee Mahoney on DWA Millennium
3rd Place- Deborah Whorf on DWA Trinity
The gang is pictured below. Christoph left, Tennessee middle, Deborah right.
Day Two
1st Place- Christoph Schork on Double Zell (Pictured below)
Day Three
1st Place- Christoph Schork on DWA Powerball
2nd Place- Dian Woodward on Salty
3rd Place- Deborah Whorf on DWA Millennium
Kevin Waters, Tennessee Mahoney, Dave Rabe and several other riders used a combination of Easyboot Gloves and Glue-Ons. Great results for EasyCare hoof boots at this very competitive event.
Looks tops hey. Has Christoph or any of the other riders tried competing in the glue-on shell with the tape (and no glue)? Or is that asking to much of the boot?

Dunc- I don't think it would work for a 50 mile event. Short training ride, OK. I have an idea that might make it work. I'll report back soon.

I'm a rookie and am just making the bare transition. I am trying the glove with the tape...have you used the plain m-tape or the Spatting Tapeā¢ which is elastic?
Also, is anyone using a comfort pad with the glove?
Thanks for sharing.

I've used the plain M tape with success. I have not used the spatting tape but it may work well.
I would not recommend the comfort pads inside the Gloves. I'm working on a new pad that will work well in the Glove.
Hope that helps.

Thanks so much Garrett. Your staff has been so helpful answering all my questions. I'm going to give the spatting tape a try, once I get my new Gloves. It has some elasticity. I just finished with my fit kit and have decided on a size. I'll let you know how I do.
I'll take your recommendation and wait for the new dome to come out.
