Watch LessonBomber Blue Elliptical
The Bomber Blue material is a nylon composite and has been on the global market for over a decade. It has proven to be a well-received alternative to steel and other synthetics. It is porous encouraging salivation and acceptance.
We have carefully blended the stainless-steel joints with the Bomber Blue material to create a smooth profile.
The underlying steel core provides the rigidity and strength, with the Bomber Blue material injection moulded around this spine, reducing the overall weight and providing a more accepted surface for contact.
At the foundation is a stainless-steel spine around which the Bomber Blue nylon material is injection moulded, providing a smooth sleek profile where the non-metal material lines up with the steel elements, giving an overall ergonomic shape that sits comfortably in the horse’s mouth without any unnecessary pressure points.

Functionality
The Elliptical is stronger than the Control Plate due to it concentrating pressure onto a smaller surface area. This bit will suit a horse that pushes the bit with its tongue. The horse will lower its head and tuck its chin in, finding a better balance of control.
The Elliptical creates a pressure point on the tongue due to the center component concentrating pressure on a small surface area. Pressure descends onto the bars and due to the mouthpiece being a double break, it will create a squeeze on the bars – however this squeeze on the bars is less than the squeeze created by a single jointed mouthpiece.
Bomber recommends this conventional mouthpiece for both schooling and competition, it applies sharper pressure than the plate to the tongue and similar pressure to the bar, bringing the head down.
The Elliptical is available in the Bomber Blue material. The nylon composite material is light in the mouth and encourages salivation. It is particularly well suited to horses that object to metal mouth pieces.
The double break, Elliptical 45, is a broken mouthpiece and will take the shape of the horses mouth.
