Re: [RC] saddle under belly - Amber Roberts

here is something i havent done in a couple of years, i spent some time training a horse to stand if i fall off. i started by riding him around, quickly dismounting, then falling down. didnt freak him out too bad. then i would get a little more dramatic about it, and do more of a "stuntman" fall. it didnt take long before he caught on, and he would just stand there and wait for me to get back up and do it again. it is good training, especially if you are the type of rider who falls off a lot anyway. :-) just be very careful if you do this. and i would recommend having someone else hang around and watch while you do it. ed



No, actually I'd recommend having YOU do it for me. Sounds like a wonderful idea, but I could never do it myself. When I fall off, I just go "splat."
