Description
Metalab 's leather snaffle bit is a simple anatomical bit that offers a simple and comfortable contact. It allows a good relaxation of your horse's mouth thanks to its leather alloy and a smoother transmission of your aids. Unlike the double snaffle bit which acts on the tongue, the single snaffle bit acts on the palate. It is important to know that the palate of the horse is a sensitive area that should not be neglected. It can be recommended for horses that are relatively easy but sensitive in the mouth, not very sensitive in the palate or with a hollow palate. It is ideal for training young horses. The "pinchless" joint is a mechanism that prevents involuntary pinching of the tongue or corners of the mouth. It allows the bit to never constrain the movements of the tongue. It dissociates the hand actions of the rider. It helps to bring confidence for the horse in the rider's hand. It improves the connection and the relaxation of the horse. The Verdun bit has D-shaped rings, it has a slight leverage action. They turn only along one axis of rotation, which avoids pinching the corners of the mouth. The flat side of the D-ring makes this bit more directional than an olive or ring snaffle but less so than a needle bit. The passes fix the bit and allow a more direct action.
