The curb gag from Trust Equestrian has a sliding rope action on the cheekpieces, which applies pressure to the horse’s curb groove via a leather pad, rather than the strong poll pressure applied with a conventional gag bit. There is still a small amount of poll pressure, as the upper ring acts in a similar way to a hanging cheek snaffle.

The core of the bit is made of reinforced nylon. The leather that is stitched around this core is naturally tanned without chemicals. The saliva production softens the leather bit and makes it more pleasant for the horse. The flexible mechanism in combination with the taste of the leather makes the bit particularly suitable for horses with sensitive mouths. The Gag Curb uses the concept of a Rope gag but instead of applying poll pressure, it is used to apply curb pressure from the second/bottom rein. Although poll pressure is not totally removed as there is a similar action to the Ring or Drop Cheek on the bit/top rein.
