Hi, Je zou eens kunnen kijken in het rulebook van de ahqa of van de paints. Ik rij met een kimberwickbit. Je mag ook met een gewone snaffle rijden volgens mij. Ee pelham bit is ook toegestaan.
Bij welke vereniging wil je starten? Want er zijn wat verschillen qua ver. Met een gewone westernsnafle in ieder geval niet Pelhalm, kimberwick, D-trens, knevel trens is al goed.
