Mustad NoSnow prevents the build-up of a dangerous snowball in shod hooves. It is available in 2 types, either made of very rigid though flexible blue plastic (NoSnow Blue) or black artificial rubber with woven reinforcement (NoSnow Black). The blue type is available in the following models: Mini, Standard, and Maxi, both front and hind. The black type has a Standard and a Trotter model, also both front and hinds. The unique air cushion compresses and then expands to push snow out of the hoof. This even prevents a dangerous snowball build-up, significantly minimizing the risk of injury for the horse and rider. It also improves winter traction.
