Description
CATEGORY A : Excellent condition
This bit was specifically engineered to accommodate the larger or sensitive tongue. This bold design focuses rein pressure to the central part of the tongue whilst diverting pressure away from the sensitive regions near the bars. The unique central ‘Turtle’ link brings the proximal ends of the cannons to their closest separation possible. The concept of widening the surfaces that lie parallel to the plane of the tongue reduces the pressure further. It encourages the horse to round over the bit and lift through the shoulder. It also reduces pressure over the sensitive outer edges of the tongue and bars, and promotes comfort and contact.
Material
Salox Gold : This material possesses a high thermal conductivity. This means that the bit will warm to mouth temperature quickly and become ‘neutral' to the horse, meaning that they are less likely to inwardly fixate on the mouthpiece and instead will be receptive to all the rider's aids. Occasionally, the horse's bit may come into contact with the teeth- namely the incisors (as we put the bit in) and the premolars. In this case, care must be taken to ensure that there is no discomfort or damage to the tooth itself. Salox Gold differs from standard stainless steel and other copper alloy bits in that it is a slightly softer metal, allowing it to safely absorb impact forces whilst protecting tooth enamel. This can make the mouthpiece easier to accept by the horse. Neue Schule aims to keep the bit comfortable but neutral in the horse's mouth. The horse should not inwardly fixate on the bit, but instead be receptive to all our aids. The addition of aluminium which forms a protective insoluble alumina coating solves the issue. It is also self-healing : if the horse bites into the bit the insoluble surface oxide quickly re-forms to re-trap the ions.
