Hrímnir Full Cheek Training Bit - Additional Information

The Hrímnir full cheek training bit is the optimal add-on to your training equipment. It can help horses that are stiff to the sides or have problems understanding sideway rein aids. It is also suitable for work with young or little trained horses. This bit is likewise a soft solution for daily training of every horse. The bit combines the advantages of long side bars attached to eggbutt bit rings and the innovative design of a double-jointed mouthpiece.

The side bars are 16.5 centimetres long. They have the function to provide lateral support to the horse’s mouth and cheek and prevent the bit from sliding through the mouth. This distributes the rein pressure to a wider area and can encourage the horse to respond better to bending or turning aids. The eggbutt bit rings provide extra comfort and stability in the mouth of the horse. The double-jointed mouthpiece features the same innovative design as our other double-jointed Hrímnir bits, which were developed with maximal comfort for the horse in mind. The mouthpiece is twisted forward 30°, so it lies flat between the tongue and palate when the horse is ridden. Its curved shape keeps the joints from irritating the palate. The Hrímnir training bit is made of durable stainless steel which has a neutral effect on salivation.

A full cheek bit functions like normal snaffle bits in the mouth. In addition, however, the side bars ensure a secure and finer rein guidance. This full cheek training bit is ideal for young horses or for those that are having difficulty understanding the rein aids. Both when working from the ground or during riding, horses tend to respond better to bending- and stretching exercises. The bit is made with high-quality workmanship. The unique and elegant ornamentation is based on ancient Viking designs. The engraved L stands for “Left and Low” and should be on the horse's left side.

The Mouthpiece thickness is 14 mm. Available in sizes 10.0 cm, 10.5 cm, 11.0 cm and 11.5 cm. This bit conforms to FEIF rules and meets international requirements. Therefore, it is allowed in FEIF sport and breeding events (only in combination with English nosebands).
