The hackamore combi is a jawpiece designed with leverage, applying pressure on the nose, chin, and mouth. The longer the hackamore's shanks, the stronger the effect. A model with shorter shanks has a milder impact compared to one with longer shanks. These bits are commonly used on highly energetic horses in competitions. Due to its leverage, this bit is quite sharp and not recommended for inexperienced riders. The Inno Sense Jointed bit combines the classic design of a traditional jointed bit with the innovative, softer Inno Sense material. Its single-jointed design applies pressure to the bars and sides of the tongue, allowing greater tongue freedom and encouraging the horse to engage with the bit while maintaining precise control. The key advantage of the Inno Sense Jointed bit lies in its enhanced comfort. The softer material minimizes discomfort, promoting better acceptance of the bit — ideal for horses prone to resistance or overreaction to stronger bits. The Inno Sense Jointed collection is suitable for all horses but is particularly beneficial for young or sensitive-mouthed horses. The plastic used is FDA-approved, ensuring it is non-toxic and free from plasticizers. Horses ridden with an Inno Sense Jointed mouthpiece respond easily to the rider's hand and adapt quickly to the bit.
