    Talk to me about Fell ponies...

Thats me riding my welsh c in my profile pic who was 13.2hh and sad to say I always had a sore back after riding any length of time, but never do now riding my bigger horse.

    adult on pony = sore back/locking out

    I have ridden ponies for years, I love M&M's and Im not particularly tall, 5ft4. This last year or so Ive been more stiff and had a sore back after riding and Ive been working hard with my physio and instructor to try and open my hips more. Until 3 months ago my main horse was my 13.2hh Welsh C...

    talk to me oh esteemed HHP members.... what are the best options?? I know having one fi*ed to your hat isnt a good idea but the bands that enable them to ping off in a fall are ok? What about a chest mount? However I wear an airjacket.... I dont have hundreds to spend on a go pro, are there...

    gel pads/wool halfpads/correction numnahs??

    Our saddle fitter advised an acavallo gel pad under my horse's saddle. His saddle was M2M but he is now 17 and has typical TB withers and lack of topline coming out of winter. I have the gel pad and have been using it but I have to be honest and admit to having just switched to a le mieu...

    Comfort bridles

    Not sure if I have misunderstood, is it just the headpeices with the threaded through noseband slot you have concerns about? Most of the comfort bridles nowadays have a single solid headpiece like JMBs though? The Micklems do.. My horse has a Buhler from Kramer equestrian and my son's pony has...

    my boots are eating my socks!!!!!

    Never had this problem in 30 years! I am on my 2nd pair of Toggi Calgarys... love how supportive they are and that they have a robust sole. However, every time I wear them by the time I take them off, the heels of my socks are in holes and it's now getting expensive! I have tried a heel raising...

    Section D’s

    I have had 2 and I now have a Sec C. What they have all had in common: they have times when their brains just goes 'welsh' - you can't seem to get through to them and it can be as if you aren't there, snorting, firebreathing etc... nothing dangerous, you just leave them be and come back to...
