Stübben - Full Cheek Snaffle Double Broken

2270 Full Cheek Snaffle Double Broken

The full cheek snaffle is characterized, as the name suggests, by its stable side cheeks. These cheeks offer various advantages and have a specific effect on the horse. They apply lateral pressure to the horse's cheeks, which supports lateral guidance and limitation, making it especially useful for training young horses. Additionally, they provide the rider with more stable control and help maintain an even connection to the horse’s mouth.

Since the cheeks stabilize the bit, the pressure on the horse's mouth is distributed more evenly and gently. This promotes softer communication between rider and horse and can contribute to better acceptance of the bit by the horse and a more relaxed movement.

The pressure on the outside of the bit aids in bending and helps the horse understand the rider's aids. The double-jointed mouthpiece distributes pressure evenly over the tongue and bars. The cheeks provide clear lateral stabilization and guidance, ensuring a steady position of the bit in the horse’s mouth. The small bit rings result in a more direct action with this bit.
