Equipment

Rig    Snub line    Gang line    Neck line    Harness    Rig bag    Light    Battery

Each dog in the team wears an individually-fitted harness of lightweight material, normally nylon webbing, padded around the neck and shoulders.  The team is hitched to a rig or sled by means of a central rope known as the ‘gangline’, other equipment includes the snub line and snow hook used to secure teams, etc.  Sleds have changed little from those used in the early days of racing being of traditional design and construction, though the wheeled rigs used in the UK have evolved in recent years with the introduction of new materials and designs to help speed and performance.
