More and more riders are choosing to ride bitless, both for reasons of welfare and because of their horse’s sensitivity. Within the KNHS, bitless bridles are now permitted in various disciplines, including dressage up to and including the M2 level. This gives riders the opportunity to present their horse in a way that aligns with their training philosophy, without having to compromise on competition possibilities.

The Nalanta Bridle Compete has been specially developed for use in KNHS (Dutch) competitions. The bridle fully complies with the regulations: it is a clean and elegant design without loose or sharp components, and it falls within the approved categories of bitless bridles (such as sidepull and cross-under). Thanks to its neutral, sporty appearance, the bridle looks neat in the arena and meets the expectations of the judges.

This applies to competitions in the Netherlands. If you compete in another country, be sure to check the regulations there.
