Description
The Seven Shank delivers a crisp, direct signal with a quick pickup and a tidy release, keeping communication clear while you shape rate, lift, and overall body control. Its straight, balanced profile offers immediate leverage, making it a go-to cheekpiece for riders who want fast response and a very readable feel. This design helps tuned horses stay elevated and correct without losing softness or timing.
The mouthpiece combines slow-twist bars with a wide correction port, creating a powerful but refined blend of bar definition and tongue freedom. The slow twist adds clarity on the bars without the sharp bite of a fast twist—ideal for horses that tend to lean, brace, or need clearer boundaries than a smooth mouth can give. The wide correction port provides increased tongue relief and encourages a relaxed jaw, while still offering precise vertical lift when engaged. Independent side movement keeps lateral cues crisp, helping with bend, shoulder control, and straightness. Polished surfaces promote comfort and acceptance for horses that already understand correction-style pressure.
