Bomber Weymouth Dressage Port Swivel. Brand new! Available in 55mm or 75mm shank length options.
The Weymouth works on several parts of a horse’s head and mouth. The shanks add leverage, and place pressure on the poll via the poll strap of the bridle and to the chin groove via the curb chain. The Weymouth F55 and F75 are made with a flat surface, fixed to the mouthpiece, allowing for a snug fit that is stable and encourages precision flexion. Note: this bit has a swivel action with the mouthpiece and the shanks have a flat side, not rounded.
The Dressage Port allows for tongue relief and is angled slightly forward. The forward angle discourages the horse from pushing its nose too far out in front of the vertical.
The swivel mouthpiece can rotate on the horizontal, allowing the cheek piece to move independently, thereby the horse can set where it finds the mouthpiece most comfortable… removing tongue pressure.
Cheekpiece
The width of a Weymouth, should be slightly smaller than the bridoon, we suggest 5mm. The cheekpiece is available in 2 sizes, standard and a slightly smaller model for a pony. The standard size Weymouth has 2 length shanks. The longer shank allows for more hand movement and slows the leveraging of the pressure points.
Mouthpiece
The 3 available ports have been scaled according to each width. This ensures accurate fitting over the bars and eliminates the rocking movement which occurs when the port is too wide.
If you are competing with this bit please check the rules regarding a rotating / swivel mouthpiece.
If a bit is not in stock, most pre-orders only take about 10 days however, if the APAC depot is out of stock and it needs to be ordered from the factory it could take 3 to 4 weeks - see exact dates HERE.
