The Loose Ring Gag Bit with Elliptical Link is a highly effective bit designed to enhance communication, control, and precision for riders. It combines the loose ring action with the additional leverage of a gag, making it ideal for horses requiring a more responsive connection. The inclusion of an elliptical link provides refined pressure distribution, promoting comfort and clarity in rein aids.
Features
- Elliptical Link: The double-jointed mouthpiece with an elliptical link eliminates the nutcracker action of single-jointed bits, distributing pressure evenly across the tongue and bars. This ensures greater comfort for your horse and encourages acceptance of the bit.
- Loose Ring Design: The freely moving rings allow the horse to position the bit comfortably in its mouth while discouraging the tendency to lean or fixate on the bit.
- Gag Action: The rope runners threading through the rings create leverage, introducing increased poll pressure and mouthpiece pressure for a stronger action. This design provides riders with enhanced control, particularly useful for horses that are strong, forward-going, or resistant.
- Stainless Steel Construction: Durable, rust-resistant stainless steel ensures long-lasting performance and easy maintenance.
- Compatible with Gag Runners: Designed to be used with gag runners (sold separately), which allow smooth and effective rein action for precise communication.
Benefits
- Increased Control: The leverage created by the gag action is beneficial for riders managing horses that are difficult to steer or slow to respond to rein aids.
- Encourages Softness: The elliptical link reduces harsh pressure points and encourages a softer, more willing response from the horse.
- Versatile Use: Suitable for disciplines where control and responsiveness are essential, such as showjumping, cross-country, or polo.
- Adjustable Pressure: The combination of mouthpiece and poll pressure gives riders the ability to fine-tune their communication with the horse.
- Ideal for Experienced Riders: This bit is best suited for experienced riders who can use it responsibly to achieve the desired balance of control and comfort for the horse.
Additional Information
- Gag runners are sold separately and are required for proper use of the gag action.
-Always ensure proper fitting to prevent discomfort or pinching.
This bit is recommended for horses that have been introduced to gag bits or for those needing a stronger aid for specific training or competition scenarios.
