The Neue Schule Turtle Top Universal incorporates the inspired turtle top lozenge and the traditional universal gag sides to create a bit that can provide complete control by removing the discomfort in the mouth associated with other, more traditional, mouthpieces.
The double jointed lozenge enhances stability of the mouthpiece within the mouth and is the only bit that truly alligns itself to the surfaces of the tongue and the soft palate. The Turtle Top™ link is a flattened dome that helps reduce palate pressure and prevents the arms of the mouthpiece from being pushed upwards by the horse’s tongue.
Additionally the arms of the mouthpiece are curved upwards in a slight arc, which is held in place by the turle top lozenge, that also helps keep the bit alligned with the internal structures of the mouth.
The Universal Turtle Top Bit allows the rider to use different rein options, pelham roundings and/or curb strap to adjust the action of the bit.
The Turtle top bits are briliant for horse's with overactive mouths and those that tongue poke as a result of pressure from the bit. The result of this is a horse that is attentive to the rein aid and that gives a soft, consistent contact.
The Neue Schule Turtle Top bits all size a little differently to conventional bits. Please see the size guide for information.
