Non-stop dogwear CaniX Belt 2.0

2024 updated version of the super popular Non-stop CaniX Belt canicross belt: suitable for both dog running and hiking with a backpack.

In the CaniX Belt 2.0 version, a new feature is a zippered back pocket. Additionally, the front attachment carabiners have been changed from quick-release to slide-through.

In the very popular CaniX Belt, the dog's pull is directed to the human's hips at the level of the buttocks. Thanks to this, the core / back does not arch, and your posture remains balanced even if a strong dog is pulling.

So the CaniX Belt provides excellent support and "lift" to the runner (or walker) thanks to the low-placed pulling point. The difference compared to more traditional canicross belt models is significant!

The CaniX also has a completely freely moving leash attachment point: the belt won't twist around you even if the dog pulls sideways.

The structure of the CaniX Belt and the low-placed pulling point ensure the well-being of your back and help maintain the correct running technique. This is important not only for your health but also for performance. With the CaniX Belt, your step lightens significantly compared to belts where the pull comes from higher around the hip bones.

The CaniX is made to meet all competition rules and has been developed in collaboration with the world's best dog runners for dog runners of all levels.

In addition to running, the CaniX is also excellent for everyday walks, hiking, and trekking. Thanks to the lightweight flat materials and the low placement of the strap attachment point, it is also suitable for use simultaneously with backpacks and rucksacks.

Non-stop CaniX Belt 2.0 canicross belt features

• The CaniX Belt 2.0 weighs only 280 grams and is almost unnoticeable when worn
• The breathable material of the belt makes the CaniX Belt comfortable to wear in all temperatures.
• The carabiner for attaching the pulling rope to the CaniX belt can slide sideways at the front of the belt. Thanks to this, the belt does not twist around the user while running curves or even if the dog pulls sideways, e.g. while hiking.
• Very versatile adjustment options
• At the back of the belt, there is a zippered pocket where you can put, for example, keys and poop bags.
• The belt has an aluminum reliable carabiner (pull strength 4 kN), to which the pulling rope is easy to attach.
• If you want to participate in skijoring competitions with the CaniX Belt, the carabiner must be replaced with a so-called panic hook, e.g. Non-stop Quick Release Snap Hook. Changing the carabiner is easy.

Non-stop CaniX Belt 2.0 canicross belt size selection

The CaniX Belt is versatilely adjustable and available in three different sizes. 

The belt is more comfortable to wear if the lower, wider back part* that comes to the height of the buttocks reaches slightly towards the front thighs and thus does not end just at the hip bones on the side. So check the width of the lower back part in the size chart and model it for yourself.

When choosing the size, it's also worth considering whether you plan to use the belt in winter with thicker clothes. In borderline cases, it's usually better to choose a larger size: the tightening options in CaniX are excellent.

Is the Non-stop CaniX Belt also suitable for dog skiing?

Yes, you can definitely ski with CaniX! In practice, the lower pulling point of CaniX, that is, the lower cross strap, somewhat limits the effective lateral push in skate skiing, so if you are a very active dog skiing enthusiast, you might want to choose a belt for skiing where the leash attaches higher, around the height of your hip bones. Such belts include, for example, Non-stop Trekking Belt and Non-stop Loype Belt.
