It sounds like you are describing Yankee breeching. I found it very helpful
on hills and in the marathon hazards. There isn't any pressure on the hind
legs and you don't have to worry about their legs being pushed under them. One
friend liked it so much she figured out how to incorporate the idea into her
single harness for hazards.

I have no real experience with pairs.... I am in the process of trying
to put together my two mares ( full sisters).... I bought a used set of
harness that was scarcely used. It has a "hipbacker" breeching...? the
wide part of the breeching that normally goes around the rump goes over
the back just in front of the dock. I can change replace it with the
traditional style. Can someone enlighten me about this...
advantages... disadvantages? What would be the purpose of using this?
The harness maker who made it said it is more of an Amish design but
couldn't offer any advice on advantages... ( and NO I'm not going to
do this solo... I want to get equipment inline and then work with a
very knowledgeable trainer this winter...)
