There have been some significant changes made to the FEI rulebook for show jumping effective February 1, 2027.
Here are the changes:
𝐓𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐩𝐢𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐧𝐨 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐝.
𝐑𝐨𝐩𝐞, 𝐜𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐨𝐫 𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐩𝐢𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐧𝐨 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐝.
All bits must be metal, synthetic or leather.
𝐏𝐞𝐥𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐬 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐰𝐨 𝐫𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐨𝐫 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐫.

We always recommend that you abide by the rules of the levels you aspire to. So even if you are not an FEI jumper, it's appropriate to chuck your non compliant tack 😉
