Most of the bitless bridles on the market have the
design flaw that the cross over straps under the chin are flat.
They can stick or lock in the rings on
the bridle. Beta and biothane is especially bad for this.
BE CAREFUL!!!
The idea is for these straps to release right away to
reward the horses response. They need to be round. A round cross over strap does
not jam in the rings.
In testing bridles I have had to lean over and release
the strap. Not fun or safe while my mare was trying to rear or spin. She was
upset and starting to get a little panicky.
I have talked to other riders with the same experience
of the straps jamming.
