Full cheek with loose rings double jointed Flex Medium

The Velari Loose Ring Gag in Flex Medium with a double-jointed mouthpiece is a balanced combination for horses that benefit from gentle guidance and soft, sensitive contact. It is suitable for riders who seek a nuanced, dialogue-like connection with their horse – for those who value feel and harmony more highly than force. Whether in training or everyday riding: this bit invites horse and rider to develop a finer and more cooperative way of moving together. The Loose Ring Gag ensures quiet yet targeted action on the contact. As soon as the rider takes up the reins, the bit moves gently upwards in the mouth and creates light pressure at the corners of the mouth as well as a subtle signal behind the poll. This encourages the horse to find its own balance and carry its head more lightly rather than leaning on the hand or evading the contact. The freedom of movement of the loose rings allows the mouth to stay active and relaxed. This makes it easier for the horse to willingly accept the contact and find a soft, constant connection to the hand. The Flex Medium material gives this bit a pleasant warmth and sensitive responsiveness. Made of a non-toxic synthetic compound with medium firmness, it offers somewhat more feedback and clarity than the softer variant without acting unpleasantly or sharply on the bars. In the hand it conveys a stable and reliable feel – precise without being rigid. The double-jointed mouthpiece works in harmony with the ring mechanics and the material and distributes pressure evenly over tongue and bars. This creates a gentle and balanced feel throughout the contact. Horses with a flatter palate particularly benefit from this design, as the double-jointed mouthpiece minimises upward movement towards the palate. The overall impression is characterised by stability, softness and a mouthpiece that follows the natural contours of the horse's mouth. Ideal for: Horses that tend to lean on the hand or need gentle support to develop more self-carriage Sensitive or finely built mouths that benefit from even pressure distribution Horses with a flatter palate where comfort in the palate area is particularly important Horses that respond well to light, clear contact at the poll as support for their carriage Riders with a soft, trained hand who value feel and fineness Riders who prefer a bit with a gentle correcting action without strong or abrupt aids Care & use Rinse the bit with warm water after every ride and dry it with a soft cloth. Store it in a dry place and check regularly that it is worn evenly and smoothly. Make sure the bit is correctly fitted: the star must be on the left side and the Velari logo on the right side.
