What is a double bridle?

A double bridle consists of two bits: the bradoon (snaffle bit) and the curb. It also consists of two sets of reins. You usually find a double bridle being used in Showing classes and Dressage.

 

What are the purpose of two bits?

The bradoon (snaffle) acts in a way elevating and bending the horse whereas the curb causes the horse to give the neck and bring the head towards the vertical. 

 

What is a Crank Noseband?

A crank noseband is designed to be fastened snugly around the horse’s nose, without a buckle to dig into the back of the horse’s jaw. This style of noseband can be used with any type of bit.
