A curb gag is similar to a leveraged snaffle but has a different effect. The pressure is now not behind the ears but on the lower jaw / chin. The cord runs under the chin and the cheekpieces are attached to the extra ring at the top. This bit is effective for strong, bloody horses and is mainly used by show jumpers. This bit is not suitable for inexperienced riders.
The Inno Sense Jointed combines the trusted design of a traditional jointed bit with the advanced, softer Inno Sense material. The single-jointed design applies pressure to the bars and sides of the tongue, giving more freedom to the tongue and encouraging the horse to engage with the bit while maintaining precise control. The key benefit of the Inno Sense Jointed Bit is its enhanced comfort. The softer material reduces discomfort and promotes better acceptance of the bit, especially in horses that are prone to resistance or overreaction with stronger bits.
Bits from the Inno Sense Jointed collection can be used for all horses, but are particularly suitable for young horses and horses with a sensitive mouth. The plastic used is FDA approved, which means that the material is non-toxic and does not contain plasticizers. Horses that are ridden on an Inno Sense Jointed mouthpiece follow the hand easily and accept the bit quickly.
