    Prolite XC boots

    I wear mine up to Novice and love them because they are so hard wearing, but have the Delmars (sp - I should be asleep) above as I do worry about them drawing the legs when on for longer and faster.

    Good riders/ good dancers?

    I use to dance as well as ride, chose riding over dancing - bit of a no brainer really think rhythm, balance ect must help but have seen some very good jockeys totally unable to dance.

    Mine are now in a barn, solid walls between them with grilled fronts, and windows at the back- with doors on so I can open them and they can look out - they all love it and spend most of their time looking out of the windows- so I suppose that means they prefer looking at the outside world than...
