That's not good! Astund has made some changes in the pictures of their equipment. Because of the way they've set up their website, you first have to go to: http://astund.is/ Then click onto English. Then go to Catalogue: http://astund.is/index.php?id=24&activemenu=24 Then to Bridles, Headstalls, and Nosebands: http://astund.is/index.php?id=24&activemenu=24&prod_cat=84 The "traditional" head stall (does anyone remember when the "traditional" head stall was only one strap going across the poll? and the discussions about why it wasn't possible to use a regular bridle with a browband and throat latch on icelandics?): http://astund.is/index.php?id=24&activemenu=24&prod_cat=84&catalog_item=1041 Not sure there's much room for adjustment with the browband and poll strap being attached at an O Ring. The dropped noseband (not as low and as tight as we usually see it!): http://astund.is/index.php?id=24&activemenu=24&prod_cat=84&catalog_item=1043 Plus the new slip-on head collar (like a sidepull): http://astund.is/index.php?id=24&activemenu=24&prod_cat=84&catalog_item=1381 Oh, bummer, the cribbing collar!
