D Collection Figure 8 Noseband Bridle

Sale price$241.00 USD

The Dy'on Fig 8 Noseband Bridle (also known as a Grackle bridle or crossed noseband bridle) is a popular choice in disciplines such as show jumping and eventing due to its ability to provide control and comfort while minimising bit resistance. It is designed to prevent the horse from crossing its jaw and evading the bit while allowing for maximum airflow and comfort around the nose.

Figure 8 Noseband (Grackle): The defining feature of this bridle is its figure 8 noseband, which crosses over the horse’s nose in an “X” shape. It secures below the bit, helping to prevent the horse from opening its mouth or crossing its jaw to evade contact. The positioning of the straps ensures that the pressure is evenly distributed without pinching or causing discomfort.

Increased Airflow: One of the advantages of the Fig 8 design is that it allows more room for airflow around the horse’s nose. The central ring or leather pad that sits over the nose ensures that the straps do not constrict the nostrils, allowing the horse to breathe freely even during intense exertion.

Anatomical Headpiece: Many of Dyon’s bridles, including those with the Fig 8 noseband, feature an anatomically shaped headpiece. This headpiece is designed to relieve pressure from the horse’s poll and sensitive areas around the ears, promoting comfort and relaxation.

Soft Padding: The Fig 8 noseband typically includes soft padding on the leather portion that crosses the horse’s nose. This padding helps prevent rubbing or irritation, ensuring that the horse remains comfortable even during extended periods of wear.
