Especially for sensitive mouths and limited space – ultimate comfort in double reins
The Neue Schule Turtle Tactio Snaffle Snaffle – 16 mm is a double-broken, anatomically shaped bit, specially developed as sette when using a dressage bar. Thanks to the innovative Turtle Tactio™ design this bit offers exceptional pressure distribution, stability and comfort, even in horses with a low palate arch, sensitive tongue or limited space in the mouth.
With its slim 16 mm thickness this snaffle is thin enough to work comfortably with a bar, without the horse experiencing a 'full mouth' – essential for relaxation and harmony in the double rein.
