Neue Schule Demi Anky Universal
Offers control without discomfort or severity. Although single jointed,
the NS Demi-Anky is ergonomically designed to eradicate the nutcracker
action and consequent evasions that the traditional straight-armed
single jointed snaffle often causes. It is brilliant for faster work
such as jumping as you can turn much more easily. The Universal also
helps to eliminate the head toss when asking for a downward transition,
or shortening in between fences. If you need to upgrade from a snaffle,
it is highly recommended as it offers varying degrees of control.
16mm Thick Mouthpiece
The Neue Schule Salox is Neue Schules unique composition – This is a warmer softer metal with a very high copper content and Neue Schule additive to maximise on oxidation (Nickel Free). This promotes salivation, mouthing, acceptance and harmony. Many horses that have previously only been bittable in rubber or nylon have proven extremely comfortable in the Neue Schule Salox. All bits in the Neue Schule Collection have high density stainless steel rings, cheeks, etc., for appearance and durability.
The Action of the Universal
Any extension above the mouthpiece will cause poll pressure (head lowering), any extension below the mouthpiece will give leverage (head raising). When the two are combined this is generally referred to as a gag action. The Universal is one of my personal favourites. The gag action is not excessive and even strong horses generally appreciate this and respond as opposed to fighting it.
The cheeks are always attached to the small offset ring at the top – the top ring is angled very cleverly in order to avoid excessive cheek pressure.
1.Gives the action of a loose ring baucher and is usually acceptable for flatwork, etc..
2.Gives a mild gag action
3.Roundings are employed reducing some gag action and allowing the use of one rein
4.Two reins to differentiate
5.A curb strap is used with the reins at any option but usually in conjunction with one rein on the bottom ring to maximize on the gag and curb action. This is an old showjumping trick which is still extensively used. A Curb does not have to lie in the chin groove in order to be effective – if you think about many western bits the curb strap is often employed further up.

The 30 day trial is not be available on such products which are of plastic/rubber due to the fact they are not as resistant to wear and tear and cannot be sterilised to the required standards.
