[RC] lateral with Spirit Bridle v. Bitless Bridle - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Rev. Edward Allan Buck spiritbridle@xxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== Each horse I teach, no matter what the venue the horse will perform in, is taught dressage. Tracy Smith wrote that there was not the lateral movement with her bitless bridle and that is very true. That is because of design flaws. Spirit Bridle has more than enough lateral pull that it will allow a race horse to changes lanes in measurements of inches. It has enough lateral pull that a horse can go deep into a ninety degree corner at collected trot leaving only a six foot arch. Spirit Bridle has enough brakes that the State of Kentucky approved it for racing thoroughbreds, because it eliminated runaways. The secret is in the combined lateral and forward control the rider really has with the Spirit Bridle that is lacking in the "Bitless Bridle". =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
