Product Features
Butterfly Width: 12.5 cm Mouthpiece Structure: Folded and solid (Solid) design Model Type: Ringed graded gem / Pessoa gem Material: High-strength stainless steel components
Product Description
The Graded Gem is a professional training equipment that offers the rider graded control thanks to its ringed structure and special mechanism. Also known as a Pessoa gem, this model is distinguished by extra rings above and below the normal tip rings. The upper ring is dedicated to the cheek strap, and the lower rings are for the rein attachment.
Gradual Control and Stability: The solid (solid) mouthpiece structure, thanks to its medium weight, provides a more stable and consistent contact in the horse's mouth. When reins are used, the upper ring tilts forward, creating a leverage effect. The biggest advantage of this gem is that the impact force can be adjusted by changing the ring to which the reins are attached. As you go down to the lowest ring, the leverage effect increases, and the gem gains a firmer control character.
Technical Advantages and Pros
Multifunctional Grading System: Thanks to different ring options, a single bit provides various levels of control from light to firm.
Solid (Solid) Mouthpiece: This structure, heavier than hollow mouthpieces, prevents unnecessary movement in the horse's mouth and provides clearer communication.
Folded Palate Structure: Thanks to its folded design, it distributes the pressure on the horse's palate onto the tongue, offering more comfortable steering.
Leverage Effect: The lever mechanism created by fixing the upper ring to the head provides an advantage to the rider, especially with strong or difficult-to-control horses.
Areas of Use
Training strong horses that resist the reins
Show jumping training and competitions
Work to correct the horse's head position and ensure better control
Initial stages of training where gradual pressure is needed
