The hackamore is a bitless bridle that focuses the pressure on the bridge of the nose. In addition, when the reins are taken up, it also acts on the poll and chin groove.

Mouthpiece

French Link

The French Link mouthpiece is a double-jointed mouthpiece with a figure-eight shaped plate in the middle that applies even pressure to the tongue. This mouthpiece has two hinge points, is more shaped towards the mouth and lies a little looser in the horse's mouth.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits have been developed in such a way that surface rust forms on contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore accept Sweet Iron bits well.
