Description

The EDIX® Halo and Halo Pro are unique, innovative shank designs developed by EDIX Saddles in collaboration with Phillippa Christie, to enable soft, clear, and horse-friendly communication without a bit. Each model offers its own type of action, giving riders the ability to fine-tune the intensity of their aids and the desired level of control to suit their horse and riding style.

Hackamore shanks are the metal components attached to the noseband and headpiece of a hackamore bridle. They create leverage, allowing the rider to communicate through pressure on the nose and jaw, without placing anything in the horse’s mouth. The length and shape of the shanks determine the amount of leverage and pressure: shorter shanks create milder action, while longer ones provide more control. Some designs, like the Halos, include multiple rein rings or adjustable positions for more refined communication.

All EDIX® shanks are protected by registered design rights at the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO):
Halo® – EUIPO 015011826-0001
Halo Pro® – EUIPO 015011826-0002
These innovative designs reflect EDIX’s commitment to ethical riding and to fostering clear, respectful communication between horse and rider.

EDIX® shanks are fully interchangeable and fit not only the EDIX ED4 hackamore bridle but also most hackamore-style bridles from other brands. This versatility makes them a valuable addition to any bitless tack collection.

EDIX Halo® Shanks

The EDIX Halo® is a lightweight stainless steel shank with a clean, minimalist design. It features multiple rein attachment points that allow the rider to fine-tune the amount and location of pressure. The fixed D-ring functions as a stable sidepull, while additional holes in the shank enable mild leverage if desired. The D-ring is equipped with a magnetic closure to keep it neatly in place when not in use.

Riders can further refine the cue response by changing rein position or slightly rotating the shanks. The Halo grows with the rider: from sidepull to hackamore and back, always supporting soft, precise communication.

The Halo is also suitable for use with double reins, though the leverage in this setup is milder than with the Halo Pro. This makes the Halo an ideal choice for everyday riding, groundwork, or riders seeking a balance between freedom of movement and gentle control.

Its clever yet simple construction delivers smooth, consistent feedback with instant release, supporting the horse’s comfort and responsiveness, all while maintaining an elegant design.

EDIX Halo Pro® Shanks

Based on the Halo design, the EDIX Halo Pro® offers even more possibilities thanks to its extra rein slot. This allows riders to switch between sidepull and leverage reins or use both at the same time.

The upper D-ring functions as a stable sidepull, while the lower slot provides mild leverage when more control is needed for example during collection, transitions, or lateral movements. A magnetic closure holds the D-ring in place when not in use.

This dynamic setup supports a natural head–neck position and encourages relaxation of the jaw and poll thanks to the anatomical shaping. The Halo Pro is especially suited for dressage riders, show jumpers, or anyone training in refinement without compromising softness and comfort.

Designed for Comfort

All EDIX® shanks are made of high-quality stainless steel and designed with the horse’s anatomy in mind. They exert no pressure on the poll, allow instant release of rein aids, and promote subtle, respectful communication. More than just metal hardware, EDIX® shanks are tools for harmony, trust, and freedom in bitless riding.
With EDIX® shanks, you ride with intention, clarity, and sincere attention to your horse!

The Hack-Q® shanks are designed to provide minimal and limited leverage. The purpose of this light leverage effect is communication, not correction. When the maximum leverage point is reached, the pressure is immediately transferred to the noseband. You can influence the leverage action by giving your rein aids upward. Horses tend to lean into constant pressure, so light, short aids with immediate release are more effective for building mutual respect 🥰⁠
