EDIX ED2 Grace, sidepull bridle

The EDIX ED2 is a sidepull bridle, which means that the reins are directly attached to the rings on either side of the horse's nose. When the rider puts pressure on the reins this is directly provided to the horse, with a direct release when the rider puts no pressure on the reins. This very clear signal makes the bridle a good choice for horses who were used to be ridden with a bit, or for young horses. By putting pressure on the right rein, the noseband will offer a release from the right side of the cheek and put pressure on the opposite side. A properly trained horse that responds to weight cues will bend in the requested direction. The EDIX sidepulls have a wide base and are softly padded which makes it a friendly and soft bridle.

The special headpiece makes sure the ears and poll of your horse are free of pressure. The throat strap is positioned to ensure the side straps will stay away from the eyes. The headpiece and noseband are both softly padded and oval-shaped for increased comfort. The bridle is adjustable at multiple places, making it an easy fit for a lot of horses. The bridle has no need for a browband to stay stable and therefor makes sure there is no pressure behind the ears on the Occipital bone. If needed, for example to use your bridle in competitions, you can order an EDIX browband separately.

The sidepull fits like a regular bridle. The nosepiece of the bridle should fit about four fingers from the top of your horse's mouth. It needs to be positioned high enough so it doesn't sit on the cartilage of the nose, or on the ends of the nose bones themselves. The higher the noseband is placed, the milder the action. The chin strap should be done up, but see that the horse can still open its mouth comfortably, but not too loose, otherwise the bridle will start dangling and your clues will not come in clear.

The Grace ED2 bridle comes included with matching clip reins, with or without anti-slip.
