(Text Barefoot)
The humane alternative for all riding styles.
Our bitless bridle distributes the pressure lightly and evenly over the nasal bone, the cheeks and the poll. It does not create punctual pressure in just one spot and therefore provides pain free and safe rein aids which increases the trust between horse and rider.
The throat latch is the extension of the reins - due to the criss crossed reins the horse understands your aids easily which will help you to put her/him on the bit without twisting or false bending at the poll. Bitless bridles work very well with even the slightest pressure; e.g. quick halfhalt on the left rein triggers a steady but pain free pressure on the opposite side of the horse´s head. The horse evades the pressure on the right and turns to the left. If you apply light pressure on both reins or right and left on the individual reins - your horse will yield and give at the poll.
Very suitable for every riding style, Western, English, Endurance or trail - even lunging. As with all new equipment we suggest to try the bitless bridle in a fenced in area first. The noseband should be resting 2 cm above the mouth crease and you should be able to get 2 fingers under the noseband.
Our bitless bridle is an especially gentle design. Noseband, crown piece and browband are all nicely padded. The crown piece is extra wide and has a thick padding to reduce pressure behind the ears.
