Vix, a double bridle does consist of 2 bits, a small snaffle like bit called a bridoon, and bit with shanks called a weymouth.
It is used on highly trained horses and should only be used by highly skilled riders.

The historical use is that it helps give very detailed and sensitive aids while riding to help in upper level movements.
Can those be done in a snaffle, yes, if horse is properly trained.
Why the double bridle then? My guess nowadays is because way back when it was considered more *formal* - and hence why rule changes allow the choice between a double bridle or not.

But just because it is a double does not make it bad

thats only my opinion and like i had said, it wasn't 100% correct to everyone and nobody has to agree with it, im not hating on the people who decide to use one.

I give full credit to the riders who can ride in a double with one hand, like you see the Working Equitation riders do.

In the Calvary they would've gone in a double and been ridden largely one handed

I had double bridles explained as an emergency brake 'yes I really mean it' the first time I rode in one

It definitely is a bit clumsy when you first start using one, but it only took a few weeks to get the feel for how hard you needed to stop/turn and most the time my horse tracked and was following the ball before I could do anything so it was the more gentler one I used a majority of the time

double bridles aren't abusive, the horse rides into the contact of the snaffle, and the shank allows for super subtle communication from the rider in upper level dressage. It's just more technical/fine tuned than your average plow reining bit

They are a lot better than some of the hackabit set ups I've seen

Anyone ever heard of the Spanish Riding School in Vienna Austria, and the world famous Lipizanners?

Fun fact, classical horsemanship and double bridles are used there

Welcome to Grand Champion Stables!

The stable was built back in September 1st, 2018 and it was founded by a woman named Caroline Sterling. She has been around horses since she was a child.

Even though the stable is big and fancy, it was hardly heard of since it wasn't the most well known facility in Denver, Colorado like some of the other stables were. She use to struggle with paying the bills as they were having issues with money which the stables was almost torn to the ground, luckily some of the riders managed to keep that from happening by either doing shows or selling project horses that they've worked with to give them good homes.

We also have the two big houses where the instructors/veterinarians and riders/stable hands will be staying at and both the Owner's House & the two houses will be on property so you don't have to worry about your horses since you can always check up on them.

One belongs to the riders/stable hands and the other belongs to the Instructors/veterinarians, both will have their own rooms since everyone deserves to have some privacy to themselves or decompress from socializing with other people.

Description of the dorms would look like: Each room will have one single bed on the left side of the room, one well made wooden desk with comfy rolling chair that spins, a very clean wooden floor, four bookshelves on both opposite sides of the room to put any decoractions on the shelves to your liking or more room for your books, one bathroom, and two windows on both opposite sides of the room so you can have a nice view from any floor level of dorm that your comfortably staying in.

The stables have gotten some glory as one of their best riders have brought legacy to it's name, will you be able to bring more of the glory to this homestead?

~ Rules ~

1. Drama is allowed but not outside of the thread.

2. Be polite to others.

3. No Godmodding, Power Playing, Mary sue/Gary stue, or Perfect Character. No one likes a flawless character so add some flaws to them.

4. Respect all roleplayers.

5. Follow Eve's rules and HEE's rules.

6. Hate the character, not the person behind the screen.

7. Romance is allowed but keep it PG and no "love at first sight" or any of that bullshit.

8. Do Not! Kill or injure another player's character or horse without their permission!

9. Swearing is allowed but keep it either miled or PG.

10. If you have read all the rules, put your favorite horse breed in "Other".

11. Please no one liners, you'll be expected to write more like a 3 sentence paragraph at minimum. I don't expect perfect grammar from anyone at the very least. Please be able to write between 100-500 words.

Side Note: I have every right to either accept or decline a player's sheet so please don't take it personal by any means and I won't be reserving spots so don't ask me to reserve any spots for you. Thank you.

Also Note: People who have signed up with the rider sheet will be treated like new riders, except for my character Heather Storm, to the facility and not everyone will know each or become fast friends, the only people that will know each other that work at the facility is the barn Owner, returned riders {my characters}, riding Instructors and stable hands. If anyone has a problem with this, you can always reach me in my mailbox :3
Thank you for your time and patience.

Appearance

Relationship with their Grandparents?
Caroline would feaquently zoom call with her two grandparents almost everyday but she was quite heart broken by the news of the passing of their deaths. She has pictures of them on her office wall when she was younger to basically keep memories of them.

Personality
Caroline is a kind soul as she makes sure that everyone feels welcomed at the estate, including the horses or other animals either come or live in the facility. Being a caring woman that she is, she tends to make sure that everyone is happy and healthy, along with the animals on the property, even though she tends to forget to take care of herself at times while worrying about everyone else. Caroline is very outgoing as she tends to be roaming all over the yard instead of staying in one place except if she has some paperwork to get filed up and organized. She very much tends to be sometimes strict when she attends to buisness that involves the facility since the place is her lifehood that she built from the ground up. She'll get serious when theres things need to be done like paying the bills of the facility or taking two riders to her office to have an important talk with them if a fight was about to break out and the list goes on but whenever there isn't any chaos going about the yard, she let's herself get laid back and just enjoy every moment of the calmness until it becomes chaotic once more.

Hobbies
Writing

Likes
Horses, Books, Animals, New riders, People, and Her returning riders.

Dislikes
Rude people, Know it alls, Animal abuse, Cheaters, Whips, and Spurs.

Fears

Past Owned Horse(s)
Dressed in Dreams "Clarity"

Relationship with Past Owned Horse(s)?
Caroline had a really strong connection with Clarity, like the duo could do anything together in a sense. The young woman had the mare since she was 13 or 14 when her parents got the equine for her after they got settled into their new home in Belgrade, Montana. They were both serious competitors in their youngers days but as the years pass, The red head sadly lost her mare to an aggressive stage 4 cancer.

Other Pets
Ollie, a neutered Male Border Collie

Background
Caroline grew up in Ireland almost her entire life until both her and her family moved to America which is where she started her competitive equestrian career with her first horse, Clarity. But when she turned 18 or 19 years old, she sadly lost her mare to an aggressive stage 4 cancer even though they did everything that they could which has shaped her into the person she is today. She went to college to study in the business career, once she graduated from college, she decided to open up her own riding facility and in 2018, September 1st was when Grand Champion Stables was brough to life, the facility still stands to this day.
