Fager JULIA tongue relief bit
Fager JULIA combines the taste of sweet iron and copper which makes this bit readily accepted even by very picky and sensitive horses.
Julias anatomically shaped double jointed mouthpiece creates space for the tongue and therefore relieve it from pressure. Instead, the bar pressure increased.
The Centerpiece Copper Roller is sharper than other flat surface links because it is smaller but higher in size. It also gives the horse something to play with. Highly effective on horses that want to lean on the bit.
When pressure is applied to a horse with a sensitive tongue, the signs may vary. Here are some of the most common response:
- Try to put the tongue over the bit.
- Shaking its head.
- Making sudden fast head-movements to escape the connection from the reins.
- Pull head up or down, trying to escape the pressure.
- Sticking the tongue out/Chewing the bit frantically.
Some horses prefer Dee Rings before regular loose rings or Eggbut since it gives a more solid feel against the side of the horse’s face. D-Rings prevents the bit to be pulled through the mouth. They also give the rider more leverage with making turns.
Compare to Loose Rings the Dee Rings gives a slightly slower release and poll pressure.
Some riders think their horse is a bit too heavy and get slower reactions on D-Rings, then I would recommend trying loose rings with Wings instead.
The wings are an excellent way to avoid pinching of your horse lips and prevent the bit being pulled through the mouth.
This is our points of experience after developing and let equestrians try this product:
- The Centerpiece Copper Roller is highly effective on horses that want to lean on the bit and take control.
- More tongue pressure than bar pressure is applied when you ride with contact. The Copper Roller create point pressure on the tongue to stop the horse if trying to take over the bit. When relaxed the point pressure releases.
- Sweet iron (blue alloy) is more often accepted by the horse than bits without sweet iron.
