The shape, the material and the features of the CalmBlue tongue relief mouthpiece are all centered around creating acceptance, calmness and enhanced communication while minimising any unnecessary pressure.

The Calmblue mouthpiece shape encourages free movement of the tongue and redistributes pressure away from the center of the tongue that many bits with classic link designs create.

The cannons of the bit move independently to create a precision in communication between the rider and the horse. 

The CalmBlue mouthpiece is made of sweet iron which releases a sweet taste as it gets in contact with saliva that many horses prefer.

The copper roller on the barrel allows the bit to glide up and down the tongue as reins are engaged more freely without creating additional pressure points.

Universal cheekpiece is a variation of the more popular elevator or Dutch gag often seen in show jumping and cross country rings. It exerts poll and lip pressure and helps lighten a strong horse that can feel heavy on the front. The detached top rings of universal stabilises the bit against the sides of the horse's  face making it a more ergonomic option than the traditional Dutch gag or elevator cheekpiece.

Optional leather curb strap helps prevent over-rotation and transfers some of the pressure on the chin is included with the purchase of this bit.

Can be used on a single or double rein with or without a connector and is suitable for horses in high speed situations and advanced in their training.

Mouthpiece thickness: 10mm

Please note that sweet iron bits oxidise naturally and the blue parts will over time develop a thin layer of rust and turn brown/grey. This is by design as the "rust" is what creates the taste so many horses love.
