Trust E27113 Medium Straight Snaffle Bit with Tongue Opening

The Trust resin tongue-slitting bit offers numerous advantages thanks to its alloy construction and the shape of its mouthpiece. It provides comfort for horses with sensitive mouths who have difficulty engaging their mouths. The bit's anatomy offers maximum space for the tongue, and its tongue-slit design allows for optimal pressure distribution across the bars, tongue, and corners of the mouth. Its straight shape ensures symmetrical left/right contact from the hand to the mouth and eliminates any risk of pinching the tongue. All these features allow the horse to gain confidence in the bit, to settle, and to engage its mouth. The Innosense resin is smooth and soft to the touch, making it suitable even for horses with salivation problems. The rigid resin prevents your horse from leaning too heavily on the bit while promoting a good contact, while the flexible resin encourages the horse to engage its mouth. A light contact between the horse and the bit helps improve its movement by encouraging hindquarter engagement. A gag bit helps collect the horse, improving or maintaining its balance. It helps raise the withers and bring the hindquarters under the horse's body. Its unique feature is the use of special cheekpieces that pass through two rings perpendicular to the bit rings. This allows it to be used with two reins, four reins, or with curb chains. The snaffle reins will have a traditional lifting effect, while the reins attached to the special cheekpieces will often have a lowering effect. It helps improve the horse's balance by bringing the horse's nose closer to the rider.
