The Long S cheek gives a smooth, rolling signal with progressive leverage—clean pickup, clear release, and a balanced feel in the hand. It helps maintain rate and lift while keeping cues soft, readable, and consistent without becoming heavy.

The mouthpiece combines slow-twisted bars with a correction port and copper rollers at the port. The slow twist provides definition on the bars without the bite of a fast twist. The correction port allows each side to move independently for precise lateral cues and vertical lift, while the copper rollers encourage salivation and a quieter mouth, helping horses stay soft as you shape rate, straightness, and collection.
