English term

bitting rig

English to Polish Art/Literary Livestock / Animal Husbandry horses
His son, in his early twenties, had a colt in the crossties, a Percheron, well-built and fit with a black hide that shone like a pair of new boots. He was wearing a bridle over his halter, and the lines were buckled into a bitting rig, a strap of leather that encircled his barrel.

Autor użył tego termin w znaczeniu zawężonym do "surcingle", czyli jak wyżej.

A basic bitting rig consists of a surcingle (also known as a roller) that has a number of rings on either side, placed at varying heights, usually with a crupper to prevent the surcingle from sliding forward.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitting_rig

A surcingle is a strap made of leather or leather-like synthetic materials such as nylon or neoprene, sometimes with elastic, that fastens around a horse's girth area. A surcingle may be used for ground training, some types of in-hand exhibition, and over a saddle or horse pack to stabilize the load. It also is a primary component of a horse harness. (...)

When used without a saddle, a surcingle sits just behind the withers. When used with a saddle, the surcingle runs over the seat near the pommel. A surcingle is also used over the top of certain types of pack saddle and pack to keep the pack bags and swag in place. A surcingle is usually used with a pad, and fit to the horse's back as carefully as a saddle would be. It is tightened enough to prevent slipping, more when used with a saddle and rider, less when used for ground training.

Surcingle
It is like a wide leather belt that goes around the entire barrel of the horse and buckles lika belt. It is used for lungeing the horse by attaching side reins to it in the rings on it.

Pas do lonżowania potocznie nazywany jest obergurtem. Jest kolejnym ważnym elementem całego osprzętu. Obergurt używany jest do lonżowania konia bez siodła. Posiada w swojej górnej części poduszki, które utrzymują jego położenie w okolicach kłębu konia. Dzięki temu nie powoduje to przesuwania się pasa do lonżowania w czasie ruchu konia. Możemy również spotkać się z pasem, który nakładany jest na siodło. Nazywa się laufgurt. Laufgurt jest przydatny w sytuacji, gdy podczas jazdy potrzebne jest nagłe skorygowanie pewnych ustawień konia. Wówczas zakładamy laufgurt i korygujemy ruch konia podczas lonżowania.
