I’m sitting directly at my desk to write this, and to be completely honest with you, I’m feeling a powerful mix of immense gratitude and genuine embarrassment.
We recently returned from our first-ever appearance at the Badminton Horse Trials 2026, and to put it simply, we were completely caught out by the incredible response.
Before diving into the full story below, I recorded a quick, raw, and unedited video message straight from my office to walk you through exactly what is happening behind the scenes right now. If you would rather watch or listen than read, you can play the video below:
The "Thank You"
Our time at Badminton 2026 was nothing short of awesome 😎. Meeting hundreds of you in person, demonstrating our 30-second balance tests, and watching people experience an immediate shift when introduced to our Latest Generation EF Technology was incredibly rewarding.
We loved connecting with riders, trainers, and an incredibly surprising number of farriers who were all searching for real, drug-free solutions for pain, sleep quality, daily energy, and animal mobility.
But That Brings Me to the "Sorry..."
To put it bluntly, we completely underestimated the sheer volume of demand. Because so many visitors bought multiple items right at the show to take home to their families, friends, and stables, our warehouse inventory has taken a massive hit.
Because our frequency-programming and manufacturing process requires a strict, uncompromising lead time, we cannot simply press a button to magically restock the shelves tomorrow (as much as I wish I could).
Why We Refuse to Find a "Faster Factory"
I have already been asked by a few partners why we don’t just source a faster, high-volume manufacturing plant. The answer is simple: we refuse to compromise. Every single product we produce undergoes a strict, multi-stage quality control process. This is only possible because we have cultivated excellent relationships built on experience and trust with everyone throughout our supply chain. It is because of this absolute refusal to cut corners that we proudly maintain a track record of virtually zero genuine manufacturer faults across our entire range. We will not rush the process now just to chase quick summer sales.
Driven by Community Stories
When you hear the real-world stories from our community, you understand exactly why we protect our quality standards so fiercely. For example, Alex recently shared this remarkable experience with us after trying the Legend Wristband:
"After years of debilitating pain and restricted mobility from a serious riding accident, I thought my active days were over. I tried countless treatments, but nothing worked—until I discovered the AV Edge wristband. Within two weeks, I could run again, and the pain began to ease. These wristbands have transformed my life, reigniting my passion for dressage and coaching. For anyone over 45 struggling with pain, I can’t recommend them enough—they’ve truly been life-changing."
Hearing how our technology helps people get back to doing what they love—whether it's returning to dressage, running, or simply navigating daily life without constant stiffness—is exactly why we keep our standards so high. Our bands and patches are designed to act like a biological tuning fork, potentially supporting natural recovery, cellular energy (ATP), and daily vitality. We owe it to you to ensure every single product works exactly as nature intended.
Thank you again for your patience, your incredible support, and for being the absolute best part of the AV Edge journey.
