During a walk to discover new things together - while allowing your horse to learn about horse/human partnership and extend your ground work. It‘s especially good for young horses to learn to walk on the trail. There is much to explore – the more we do this from the ground with our horses, the safer they become under saddle.

41 Headstalls Barefoot Contour

NEW The sensitive area between the horse‘s ears – the atlas – represents the transition to the cervical spine, with the foramen magnum connecting the brain with the medulla. The atlas is also where the nuchal ligament starts, Contour which is responsible for the whole chain of movements of the back. It is precisely here at the nuchal ligament onset Jewel that too much pressure / stress can cause inflammation. As a result, the horse is suffering great pain and movement is severely impaire ...

Barefoot has the horse friendly solution: ... The poll area of the Barefoot Contour headpiece is shaped so that no pressure is applied to that delicate area between the horse‘s ears. The centre of the headpiece is sharply bend forward and therefore lies in front of the nuchal ligament onset. The main bearing surface is on the neck muscle, left and right behind the ears. The area around the ears is shaped and softly cushioned.

1 | Contour Jewels Bridle 1 | Contour Jewel Bridle Barefoot – Designed FOR Horses! This bitless bridle distributes the pressure gently and evenly Patented across the nose and cheeks. It ensures aids are received without any pain and helps create trust between horse and rider. The throat lashes are extensions of the reins – their cross-under design allowing the horse to understand aids easily without wrong flexion at the poll.This bitless bridle makes riding with the lightest aids possible: A short impulse/pressure on the left rein creates a pain free but distinct pressure on the opposite side oft the horse‘s head. The horse moves away from the pressure on the right and reacts with bending to the left. Short impulse/ pressure on both reins or alternate reins - your horse will give.

Barefoot – Designed FOR Horses! The solution: Not only for sensitive horses! For all styles of riding and lunging. The Barefoot Contour Physio bridle can be precisely fitted to the horse‘s head as it is of a totally different design to traditional bridles. 1. The Contour poll area is shaped forward so that no pressure i s applied to the sensitive area behind the ears where a nerve trunk attaches to the occipital bone. The headpiece is softly padded and curved around the horse‘s ears – he ears have room, the headpiece nestles softly. 2. The cheek pieces and throat lash are thought through and fitted to the horse‘s head in a different way. The cheek pieces fork out, this y-shape prevents slipping: the horse‘s eye stays free! The bridle can be precisely fitted to the horse‘s head and stays in place.

1 | Walnut Bitless Bridle Walnut The humane alternative for all riding styles. Our bitless bridle distributes the pressure lightly and evenly over the nasal bone, the cheeks and the poll. It does not create punctual pressure in just one spot and therefore provides pain free and safe rein aids which increases 1 | Walnut the trust between horse and rider. Bitless Bridle The throat latch is the extension of the reins – due to the criss crossed reins the horse understands your aids easily which will help you to put her/him on the bit without twisting or false bending at the poll. Bitless bridles work very well with even the slightest pressure; e.g. quick halfhalt on the left rein triggers a steady but pain free pressure on the opposite side of the horse´s head. The horse evades the pressure on the right and turns to the left. If you apply light pressure on both reins or right and left on the individual reins – your horse will yield and give at the poll. Very suitable for every riding style, Western, English, Endurance or trail – even lunging. As with all new equipment we suggest to try the bitless bridle in a fenced in area first. The noseband should be resting 2 cm above the mouth crease and you should be able to get 2 fingers under the noseband. Our bitless bridle is an especially gentle design. Noseband, crown piece and browband are all nicely padded.

1 | Cedar Modifiable Bridle This Barefoot bridle comes with multiple adjustment possibilities. Crown piece, noseband and throat latch can be adjusted on both sides and can be fitted from a pony to a warmblood. The bit can easily buckled on and off. The throat latch can be removed completely and the bridle can be used as a halter. The noseband is softly padded and has 2 additional rings to attach reins and ride bitless. Our recommendation: The entire bridle should be buckled loosely; the noseband should have ample room so it does not interfere with the horse´s breathing. Leather reins and a nice lead rope made of a leather/ nylon combination with panic buckle are included.
