The NATHE-Control is a double jointed bit that looks similar to conventional NATHE models. However, it is used as a correction and training bit: from a certain angle it locks and then operates like a straight bar. The bit lies comfortably in the mouth when the horse is working properly. When the horse opposes the rider's hand the more intensive rigid effect occurs.
At a glance:
- double jointed training or correction bit
- locks at a certain angle and operates like a straight bar
- the locking mechanism takes effect when the horse gets strong or opposes the rider‘s hand
- unlocks immediately when the contact gets softer
