Forces during locomotion by Hilary Clayton
How can some horses sprint at 60 kph or soar over high fences? In this blog Dr. Hilary Clayton unpacks the science behind Ground Reaction Forces (GRFs) and equine motion.
The Sleip tool is trusted by well-known equine clinics, veterinarians serving national teams, solo practitioners as well as physiotherapists, chiropractors, trainers, and farriers.
Professional riders and stables are increasingly adopting the app as part of their routine, working hand-in-hand with their veterinarians. This collaboration ensures the welfare of their horses and allows for the timely identification of potential injuries or issues before they become critical.

Marie Rhodin, DVM, DECVSMR, and associate professor, uses the Sleip app for monitoring horses in training for early detection of lameness and to compare data before and after diagnostic analgesia and during rehabilitation of horses. Marie says it's a very good tool to train the visual assessment.
Enar Tollig, DVM, dedicated team vet for the Swedish eventing team, uses Sleip with the athletes in his care. He finds the advanced computer vision technology useful as an additional pair of eyes, especially when assessing complex lameness cases.
