A dressage bit is used in combination with a loose bit, known as a double-cheeked bit. This combination is used in higher dressage classes. As of April 1, 2024, it may be ridden from Z2 level onwards. The dressage bit is a cheek piece with leverage. The longer the shanks, the sharper the action. The dressage bit has long shanks and therefore has a sharper action than the baby dressage bit. A double-cheeked bit combination requires a special double-cheeked bit bridle or an additional cheek piece. In addition, this cheek piece must always be combined with a curb chain to prevent the bit from slipping. This bit is not suitable for inexperienced riders.
The Inno Sense Flexi Soft bits are made of elastic plastic and are very flexible, making them very user-friendly. Despite their flexibility, an Inno Sense Flexi Soft bit is very robust thanks to the use of a flexible stainless steel core.
Bits from the Inno Sense collection can be used for all horses but are particularly suitable for young horses and horses with sensitive mouths. The synthetic material used is FDA-approved, meaning it is non-toxic and free of plasticizers. Horses ridden with an Inno Sense mouthpiece easily follow the hand and accept the bit quickly. The Inno Sense flexi soft is less suitable for very strong horses.
TRUST equestrian bits are quintessentially Dutch. All bits are designed, developed, and handmade in the Netherlands. A team of technical professionals works on their production daily. The bits are assembled with the utmost care and made from the finest materials. This ensures high quality control and standards. Each design continuously considers the balance between shape, material, and weight. TRUST bits are slightly curved, allowing them to conform better to the horse's mouth. This anatomical shape allows the bit to fit more comfortably in the mouth and distributes pressure more effectively. With a wide selection of mouthpieces, cheek pieces, and materials, TRUST strives to offer a suitable bit for every horse.
