Everything You Need To Know About Equestrian Vaulting
From Wikipedia, www.wikipedia.org
Equestrian vaulting is most easily described as gymnastics on
horseback. The sport can help to improve rhythm, balance,
flexibility, co-ordination and strength while working in harmony
with the horse.
The horse is moved in a 15 metre circle and is controlled by a
lunger.
The horse wears a bridle, with the lunge line usually attached to
the inside bit ring. The horse wears a large back pad held in
place by a roller, which has two large handles allowing the vaulter
to mount and perform various movements with a great feeling of
security
Equestrian vaulting can be done as a recreation, in competition,
or as therapeutic vaulting.
