French mouth loose ring - Abbey

: The Abbey double jointed allows to limit slightly the risk of "nutcracker" effect on the tongue and the palate thanks to its small central paddle. The double snaffle offers good mobility to the bit, allowing a good relaxation in horses that can lean on straight bits. It has a good freedom of movement in the horse's mouth. The rotation of the pallet on the tongue helps to bring the horse's nose slightly closer to the rider. This bit can be recommended for horses that are not very sensitive in the tongue and mouth in general, that have difficulty compacting, balancing or that are carried forward by their mass. Loose rings offer a soft contact to the mouth. They allow for a slight indirect contact compared to fixed rings, which makes it easier to play in the fingers and limit excessive tension.
