I started at the heel area and worked forward. I used a screw driver and a rubber mallet to remove the Cuffs. The first couple photos show the bond before I removed them. The Cuffs have now been on for a touch over 4 weeks/30 days, and the bond is still exceptional. My trimmer is coming tonight so I decided to remove the "Cuffs" from Cyclone's front feet.

I'm excited about the possibilities and believe this will be one of Eas圜are's biggest patents. The Glue-On Cuff adds a very unique application method to the Easyboot Glue-On shell and allows horses to remain barefoot and still have the benefits of a below the hairline boot. The Easyboot Glue-On Cuff test is complete. I've seen many cool hoof boot concepts over the years but this is one of my favorites! Some of the Team Easyboot Members may have them at events in early July. Look for the Cuff System to be out late summer. The new hardware and molds are about done. The new thumb screw (pictured below) can be tightened and loosened with your fingers and the large head size eliminates the washer. I've made a couple changes to the hardware that will allow users to do the application without a screw driver. Here is a short video showing how easy it is to apply the shells once the Cuff has been applied to the hoof.

The low profile shell fits below the hairline and the system weighs almost half the weight of a standard iron shoe. The Cuff System will be a huge step forward for all the people who have reservations about leaving a glue-on boot in place for extended periods of time. Application and removal of the shell when using the Cuff System is done is less than one minute per boot. Slip the shells on before riding and then remove them and let the horse be barefoot when the ride is done. The unique Cuff System allows the horse to be barefoot at all times and the Easyboot Glue-On shell can be slipped on the hoof for riding. For those of you that are not familiar with the Easyboot Glue-On Cuff, the "Cuff System" gives horse owners the ability to use Glue-On shells but gives them the ability to remove and apply them at any time. The Easyboot Glue-On Cuff continues to move forward and we have made some mold and hardware modifications that will make application and removal very simple.
