Re: Ice boots

I like the DC ICE BOOTS.  Made by Debie Cadi. Cost $75. Made from gel
packs small size in a nice flexiable shell. Will stay frozen for a full
weekend if kept in a cooler.
That is the problem you need to freeze then at home and keep then cold
..once melted. they are only cool.. but we have packed ice in them.
Then you have to have ice. I used then for the OD 100  lasted all day.
Roll them up and pack away on to the next VC .  can see then from End
home page..

Next choice the ARBEE boot ..A very easy to use boot.. that is packed
with ice after it is installed on the horse. You need crushed ice. We
used then at one ride just to test them. I liked them fine.  BUT I dont
carry crushed ice.. SO the DC Boot is better for me.. I put then in the
MH freezer..
The ARBEE boot is good for use at home or on the road..as long as you
have a good supply of ice to fill them --
Can see these boots from the End Home page also..

Its a personal preference here..I like them both.
