- As with all the starts, it is important not to settle it too short, particularly at the start of the session, the goal is not to imprison the horse which would cause defenses but to fix a frame in which the horse can set up freely.
- The German reins are also called sliding reins. These are much longer reins than the usual reins, which start from the strap, go through the rings of the jaw and go up in the hand of the rider. The fixed attachment is located on the chest (or on each side of the saddle). The reins therefore slide in the rings of the jaw, either when the rider changes their length, or when the horse moves the head.
- When they are well installed, they determine the maximum level of recovery of the neck, the height that the head should not exceed. In fact, they are not "adjusted" as we understand for normal reins, they are only tense if the horse raises the neck above a point chosen with reason. The head-to-tecolure angle must remain open, the German reins absolutely do not serve to put in hand.
