FAIRFAX BRIDLES ARE MADE TO ORDER. PLEASE CONTACT US
In Fairfax's scientific trials, their Snaffle Bridle with Grackle Noseband was a top performer when it came to pressure reduction on the horse’s face making it a great starting point for youngsters.
This Mexican grackle design sits higher on the face than an English grackle, & benefits from articulation rings each side which help it articulate & move in harmony with the motion of the horse’s head.
Available with plain ($855) or Crystal browband ($1055)
- Unique design based on scientific research
- Carefully thought-out features reduce pressure in six key zones
- Articulation rings on the noseband improve stability on the horse’s head, allowing it to move with the horse, without causing restriction
- Improved bridle stability enhances the horse’s comfort
- Symmetrical design with buckles both sides
- Browband & noseband are interchangeable with others from the Fairfax range
- Approved for use in FEI competitions including all three eventing phases
Developed, designed and handmade in the UK
The first bridle to be based on scientific research and proven to:
- Reduce pressure by up to 84%
- Reduce force by up to 77%
- Allows greater forelimb extension
- Increases knee & hock flexion
The Fairfax Performance Bridle is the only bridle to have been designed and developed using pressure mapping (by Pliance) and gait analysis (by Centuar Biomechanics).
Our testing and research into different bridle designs identified 6 key zones of peak pressure, common to most bridles. Further scientific study proves that the reduction in bridle pressure afforded by the Fairfax Performance Bridle significantly improves range of movement, extension and flexion in competition horses.
In addition to reducing pressure, the Fairfax Performance Bridle enhances the horse’s comfort by improving stability.
- Crystal decoration on browbands
- Hand-stitched and made in Walsall, England
- Quality buckles and metalwork
- Made using first selection Sedgwick’s bridle leather
- Fully lined with Prolite® which is proven to disperse pressure
Get the benefits
The Fairfax Performance Bridle has been designed specifically to improve your horse’s way of going and your horse may need time to rebalance during acclimatisation. To get the maximum benefits from your bridle use it continuously (i.e. not just for competition), as regular use has a cumulative benefit.
