riding

 There are lots of different types of horse riding, there is show jumping cross country dressage and lots more.


If you like more of a thrill you should do something like cross country or barrel racing or racing . In cross country you jump over big logs and canter around you jump things with stuff on top you jump over solid jump water jumps you might have to jump over ditches go through the forest. In racing you go to a race cors you get lined up. You will hear the noise of the metal doors opening and the horse’s start galloping people can bet on the horses for money there is jumping incouled some people. Barrel racing is a type of western riding when you go as fast as you can around three barrels in the right pattern and if you knock over a barrel you get disqualified. 

But you have to be careful because your horse can refuse a jump or not do what it’s told and you can come off.



Bits of tack you have your saddle, saddle pads, bridle. 

But before you tack up you need to groom your horse to groom your horse you need to have a hard brush, soft brush, hoof pick, curry comb.

After you groom your horse you put saddle pads on then saddle and then take off your halter. And put the bridle on.


For beginner riders you will start by walking around trying to stay balanced in the saddle. Than you start trotting watch is bumper and faster than  walking you will learn to post on beat with the horse and than you will move up to cantering and then jumping.
