Orion bridle - Equibitfit

The Orion bridle offers a particularly versatile design, created to accommodate the horse both with and without a bit. Thanks to its small side-pull rings, the set-up can easily evolve as training progresses, making it particularly interesting for young horses or during the transition between bitted and bitless riding.

A versatile bridle for bitted or bitless riding

The distinctive feature of the Orion bridle is its small side-pull rings, which provide several possible configurations. The horse can be ridden bitless, with a bit, or with two pairs of reins to gradually combine both types of aids. This versatility allows riders to keep the same bridle throughout a learning or transition phase, without completely changing the horse's usual reference points. It is particularly relevant when gradually introducing a bit to a young horse, transitioning towards bitless riding or, conversely, progressively reintroducing a bit.

Comfort and freedom around the head

Like the Fannar model, Orion features a design focused on comfort, freedom of movement and pressure distribution. The headpiece aims to relieve pressure points around the poll and along the topline, while the shape of the noseband helps preserve greater mobility through the lower jaw.

The headpiece is designed to relieve pressure points around the poll and along the topline. Combined with supple leather, it aims to provide comfortable contact while following the horse's movements more naturally.

The noseband is shaped to clear the bony prominences and encourage freedom of movement through the lower jaw, helping the horse to relax. The bridle also features small side-pull rings, allowing it to be used bitless, with a bit or with two pairs of reins depending on the training approach.

The browband is available in either leather or a rhinestone version, allowing riders to adapt the bridle's appearance to their preferences. The browband can easily be removed or replaced by the rider according to their preference.

A valuable option for training and transitions

The option of using two pairs of reins makes it possible to work with both configurations and gradually develop the horse's understanding of the different aids. Orion is therefore particularly suitable for training young horses, as well as for horse-and-rider combinations transitioning progressively from a bit to bitless riding or in the opposite direction.

Why choose this bridle?

The Orion bridle is an interesting option for riders looking for greater flexibility in their choice of communication. Its ability to be used bitless, with a bit or with two pairs of reins allows the equipment to evolve with the horse while prioritising comfort and lower-jaw mobility.

A versatile bridle designed to support a progressive transition from bitted to bitless riding, or from bitless to bitted riding.

The Orion bridle is made from supple leather, allowing it to sit comfortably around the different areas of the horse's head while maintaining flexibility in contact with the horse.

Regular care helps preserve the leather's suppleness and durability over time.

Care instructions:

- Before first use: generously oil your bridle.

- After each ride: clean the leather with glycerine soap.

- Regular care: condition the leather with leather grease or balm once or twice a month.
