Description
The Neue Schule Tranz Angled Lozenge Jumper's Choice/Ride & Drive is a lever bit which offers extra lift from the shoulder and increases control without discomfort or severity. This clever cheek also reinforces directional control and turning, and stabilises the mouthpiece ensuring the correct contact points are employed at all times when rein aids are applied. The NS Tranz Angled mouthpiece is ergonomically designed for both comfort and communication. The rounded lozenge is set on at a unique 20° angle, activating more feel over the tongue. When a contact is taken, the lozenge rolls gently down contouring smoothly over the tongue's thicker less sensitive centre (the sweet spot), utilising feel but not abusing it, thereby enabling clearly defined aids to be given through the reins. The arms are slightly curved for comfort and of an oval profile. This clever design takes up less room between the tongue and upper palate whilst offering a similar weight bearing surface from the horse's perspective as thicker, more obtrusive circular profile mouthpieces. This ergonomic design very subtly depresses the whole of the tongue and the oval profiles help to create a larger upper airway, enhancing the horse's ability to breathe and swallow.
This bit is very popular with jumpers as it encourages the horse to sit on it's hocks, helping with tight, accurate turns. It's also recommended for horses which snatch down or pull the rider forwards. The inner rings act as a softening buffer through the rein so that riders with weak backs or arthritis will usually find this bit to be a great benefit. This bit is also a great choice for a driving bit when a Liverpool is not compulsory. It's one of the few designs of bit to provide extra directional control without having fixed cheeks.
Available from 5" - 6"; 16mm mouthpiece thickness
