Manufacturer Information
Mouthpiece
Multiple-jointed/Waterford
A multiple-jointed or Waterford mouthpiece consists of a series of rounded links. It is a flexible bit that conforms to the horse's mouth and creates even pressure. It can move in all directions, making it difficult for the horse to lean on the bit, so the rider maintains proper control. In soft hands, this mouthpiece is gentle and kind, but with a strong hand, the bit can be sharp.
Shank
D-Ring
Due to the characteristics of this bit, it is wonderfully suitable for young horses that are still somewhat inexperienced. The shape and weight of the shanks ensure a calm and comfortable position in the mouth. Due to the shape of the D-shaped rings, optimal lateral stability is provided. Good and calm rein guidance is facilitated by the large ring. The larger rings provide a little more leverage on the poll.
