Bridle Flying Change Deluxe Brown Leather

* NOSEBAND
The wide, anatomical noseband is designed to leave the cheekbones and nerve endings free, achieved by it being swept up and extra wide. The noseband is equipped with very soft padding to prevent pressure and rubbing around the horse's jaw. We have chosen the pullback strap because the padded cushion underneath always stays centered when you tighten the noseband, regardless of whether you use the outermost or innermost hole. The bridle comes with a removable Aachen strap so you can easily vary it depending on what your horse requires. The noseband has two looks, one with a lacquered noseband and round-stitched details, while the other is entirely leather with flat sidepieces.

* HEADPIECE
The area around the horse's neck behind the ears is a very sensitive area with many nerves and ligaments. To alleviate pressure from the bridle, we have developed a headpiece that is extra wide. The headpiece also has a cutout on top, distributing pressure evenly and not on one point. Additionally, the headpiece is cut to provide space for the horse's ears - all to provide the highest possible comfort.

* CHEEKPIECES
Our cheekpieces are specially designed to reduce pressure from the neck through our elastic CradlesTM. A vagga is an extra elastic band on which the bit should rest. The elastic band is located in the cheekpieces at the bit, but also on our reins. The idea is that they should act elastically and provide a higher degree of comfort for the horse, allowing the bit to "bounce". This should relieve the teeth and jaw from static pressure. Many believe that horses prefer this type of bridle, and that it can therefore be gentler and more horse-friendly than regular bridles and reins. On this bridle, the cheekpieces are round-sewn and also have optional "cradles" with French hooks in the color gun metal, making it easy to disconnect the vaggas when entering the dressage arena.

* BROWBAND
The browband is U-shaped to prevent pressure on the horse's forehead and eye sockets. Today, all our browbands have a rubber-coated inside called "anti-slip" which should keep the browband up and prevent it from sliding down. As if this weren't enough, we of course have our beloved Click-ItTM function, making it easy to remove and replace the browband as needed, even when the horse is wearing the bridle.

* COMPETITION
Works for all disciplines and are approved by the FEI. We recommend checking with your local equestrian authorities for detailed information in your country. Remember to buy a throat latch, attach it to your browband, and ensure the vaggas are disconnected during dressage competitions. A compatible throat latch model for this bridle is: Flat w/ Rolled Stitched
