Our favourite low effort therapy!

The XLR8 Velocity sheets use far infrared technology to help increase blood flow and oxygen delivery to the muscles.

That means:
🧲 better warm up
🧲 better recovery after work
🧲 muscle support

They are lightweight, easy to use and fit seamlessly into your daily program. Simply put the sheet on before riding to help muscles prepare for work. Use it for regular turn out, after training, hauling or competition to support recovery and relaxation!

Jennifer Robinson – Sexsmith, AB

Coming off an amazing futurity win just last fall, Jennifer is hitting the trail with a trailer full of some pretty incredible horses this season. Including her own futurity stallion, Fueled By Design, whom of which we cannot wait to see take the season by storm! It takes a talented rider and trainer to compete on such a variety of mounts and we are always amazed to see what she can bring out of each horse. Some of her favourites include BOSS BUCKETS (her all time must have lol), Flair Strips, Zesterra, DiO, SlideHA and XLR8. We are so humbled to have Jennifer on the team again in 2026, we cant wait to see where the road takes her and her team!

Nicole Guard – Fort St. John, BC

Taking a step in the direction of your dreams is always exciting but also nerve wracking, however without doing so, you’ll never find out what you’re truly capable of.

A product she’s excited to try this season is the Race Recovery paste from KER

Selena Kidney – Westbridge, BC

Growing up on a cattle ranch in Fort St. John is something out of a dream to most, but for Selena it was an amazing reality.
