Full Cheek Design

Full cheek bits like this one are used across many English riding disciplines, including 3-day eventing. When properly equipped with full cheek bit keepers, the bit provides mild leverage by applying pressure to the horses poll. This leverage comes from the rider applying pressure to the rein which transfers to the bit itself as well as the keepers. The keepers pull on the cheek pieces, sending pressure up the bridle to the crownpiece. Pressure on the crownpiece applies pressure on the poll.

Using a full cheek bit to apply pressure to the horse’s poll can gently encourage the horse into the proper head carriage.

French Link Design

The French link snaffle is one of most common double jointed snaffles. The two joints (one on each side of the link) reduce the nutcracker effect of a regular jointed snaffle. The design allows the rider independent control over each side of the horse’s mouth. Rein pressure evenly distributes across the bars of the mouth.

The center of the bit is the French link – a flat piece of metal connecting the two sides of the bit.
