However, as equestrian regulations can evolve, we always strongly advise riders to consult their specific organization's most current rulebook for confirmation regarding specific dimensions or any recent updates.How does the Forward Tilted Port (MB 36) provide tongue relief, and what type of horse is it best for?The Myler Forward Tilted Port (MB 36) is uniquely designed to offer significant tongue relief when your horse is relaxed, making it particularly beneficial for horses with a low palate or those who resist tongue pressure. When the reins are engaged, the bit gently rotates to apply a clear, corrective tongue pressure, providing a distinct signal without constant pressure. This mouthpiece is often classified as a Myler Level 2-3 bit, suitable for horses with a foundational understanding of the bit who may still exhibit disposition challenges like anxiety, or those in more advanced training needing precise communication.What are the benefits of the Independent Side Movement (ISM) and Eggbutt cheekpiece for communication and comfort?The eggbutt cheekpiece provides superior stability in your horse's mouth, preventing pinching at the corners of the lips, and offering a more direct and consistent signal. Coupled with Myler's patented Independent Side Movement (ISM), which features a central barrel, each side of the bit can move independently. This allows for clearer, more precise lateral cues, significantly enhances bending, improves shoulder control, and eliminates the common "nutcracker" effect of traditional jointed snaffles, leading to improved overall communication and a more responsive horse.How does this Myler bit promote overall comfort and encourage salivation for my horse?The Myler bit's ergonomic design, featuring a gently curved mouthpiece, is engineered to conform to your horse's natural oral anatomy, significantly reducing pressure points and creating more comfortable room for the tongue compared to straight or traditionally jointed bits. The stable eggbutt cheekpiece prevents pinching for added comfort. Furthermore, the presence of copper inlays in the mouthpiece encourages natural salivation and promotes a relaxed jaw, contributing to better bit acceptance and a softer, more willing connection.Product DetailsProduct Item Number (SKU):
