FAQ

Do I give my reins also aids cross?

No, you do not have to. If you take the left rein, the horse gets on the right side a boost. The horse naturally gives way to pressure and goes around the left, just as you would with your pulse. It is unnatural for the horse when it is ridden with bite, go there where the pressure or pain occurs.

Is that sold you the same as the Bitless Bridle Dr.Cook invented?

I have rebuilt eight years ago as the first BB from Dr. Cook, after I have the article "shut up" read in the Cavallo (partly published on my homepage). Since he has no patent for it in Eurapa, I could do that. The "S-snaffle bridle" is as prepared as they can build Dr. Cook. The other models are on the operating principle equivalent, except that the Nackenseil and straps separately. We got noticed again and again and confirmed by the signals from the horse will be better understood, as is the selective pressure on the neck.

Can I drive with the Bitless Bridle and coach?

I personally have no experience so when I drive no coach. Customers who dared to try were all very excited. I understand that most customers are driven with one Shetty.

What are the differences between the services you Bitless Bridle, and the so-called "Wheel of Fortune"?

The wheel of fortune is like a Sidepull. The pulse is indicative, but undifferentiated. The Wheel of Fortune can be used with a leverage effect, it was purposely omitted in the Bitless Bridle. With the Bitless Bridle decide you are against any violence.
A very important difference between these two bridles is that the leadership in the cross-Bitless Bridle, that horse in position and bend can be placed. In addition, the BB works by framing the ganaches, with further impetus to the neck and as third stage on the bridge of his nose.
In addition, there is a difference in the price

Can I use the BB side reins or bridle triangle?

Dr. Cook believes that to do this and offers it as well. I tried it out for testing purposes and for my taste dangling around too much direction leather horse's legs. The side reins are verschnallt as if they had the rings of Nackenseils of the BB, the rings of teeth. Since the bitless bridle exerts pressure on the neck, actually a side reins is superfluous.

What are the advantages of the Bitless Bridle-?

In your book "Gebisslos Reiten" I have read as follows:

"When creating the noseband should be one finger space, not 2-3 finger". However, standing on your website
When creating the Bitless Bridle noseband should be with the 2-3 finger space. This is contradictory. How come?

The book my husband and I in the early days of the Bitless Bridle written. He had always thought it would only place a finger on his nose strap. I did not share the opinion. Since I am the rider, I have gained the practical experience. Namely, that 2-3 fingers should be room for the horse clearly feel the difference between acceptance and surrender. That is why I publish it on my website too, but the book is written and in circulation, because I can change anything.


I am pure recreational rider, bridle which would you recommend?

By the action of all the same. The Testzäumung works just as well as any other bridle in my program. I offer so many models, because the tastes of the people are so different. The beta - bridle is very easy to maintain, since it is made of synthetic leather. It is well suited for trail riding or endurance racing, because it does not absorb sweat.
     

Can I use my normal reins?

Yes you can. But these should be about 20 cm on each side too long. This is due to the length of the rope from the neck.


I understand it correctly, I ride dressage and jumping can thus?

Know the Bitless riding only from the Westernriding

The Bitless Bridle is actually a bridle, which you can use in each riding. I even have customers who use BB "driving". It is of course depends on the relationship between horse and rider. Bitless riding, has developed far beyond the Western riding also.


If the test Bridle a used bridle? If I do not send them back, then so is everything clear?

Many customers keep the Testzäumung, so more new than old bridles are in circulation. I pay attention that only a proper bridle is sent.
Yes, then everything would ok.


And where lies the difference with the Vario Plus?

Vario Plus is sewn entirely of 25 mm webbing. The normal Vario has the nose strap of 25 mm and sides of 15 mm webbing.

     
I'm looking for the Shetty-bridle-beta, which I use for my Mini Shetty. Now I can at the nose strap 16 or 19mm set to buckle on one side or both sides. Where exactly are the differences and advantages / disadvantages?

It is 19mm taken if you want a wide Auflägefläche. While there is no advantage or disadvantage, it is a matter of taste.
Double-sided buckles allow for easier adjustment. In unilateral buckling needs to be opened on a strap around the neck point bridle, towards the mouth or to place further away from the mouth.
     

I ride a horse club and would like it bitless riding. The other riders will still ride the horse with teeth. It damages the horse?

It is safe on the horse, how flexible it is. Basically, it hurts every horse to be ridden with bite.


If I take the reins and then give way to solve the rope for the neck not sufficient. Why is that?

In most cases, prevents the head shape, the release of the Nackenseils. It is advantageous if you have a bridle, which was also part of the nasal bridge is to be adjusted. Then you can make is the front part of the larger on the nose. This is the part of small, under the chin. The ropes that are closer together then form the cross and dissolve easily.

     
If my horses on liability for damages if I ride bitless?

You must check with your insurance company. I have heard many times that the insurance companies have adapted to the new development (bitless Riding).
