There are many methods of trimming that subscribe to balancing the hoof to the foot's axis or center of rotation (COR). Whether you subscribe to theories presented by Mike Salvoldi, Gene Ovnicek, Dave Duckett, or the ever growing population of hoof experts, balancing around the axis of the foot is central to their work. Though all of these methods have merit, they each present a challenge. How do we balance the hoof to foot without a plane of reference? The Dynamic Balance Hoof Level is the first tool to offer a reliable plane of reference that when followed results in repeatable balance. The Dynamic Balance Hoof Level presents a plane of reference for the axis of the foot, allowing the farrier/trimmer to establish balance in all horses, even those with less than ideal conformation. Whether you shoe, boot, or simply trim, this tool will improve your skills in achieving consistent repeatable balance.
The DBHL can be a valuable tool for Veterinarians, Equine Chiropractors, Alternative Health Care Providers, Trainers, and Horse Owners that want to be able to evaluate hoof balance and communicate their findings to the farrier/hoof care provider.
The Dynamic Balance Hoof Level Kit contains: (1) Dynmanic Hoof Level w/toe plane, (1) Frosted Leveling Plate, and (1) Direction Booklet. All components are housed in a durable black plastic carrying case with convoluted foam liner.

After more than 30 years as a farrier, I recognize a useful tool when I see one. Allows me to confirm and communicate balance to my clients and the veterinarians I work with.
