Cms to hands

[spider]

Does anyone know what 153cm is in hands please?

 

[only_me]

15hh exactly i think!

 

[Smash]

Yep, it's 15 hands.
Why they can't just say that I'll never know.

I make it 15.1 and a bit?? 153 divided by 2.5 to make it inches and then divided by 4 to put it into hands - I think!

Oh good he's about 14.3hh so would fit in the pony section. Do they ask for any confirmation of height at shows where classes are split by height do you know?

 

[only_me]

nah cos 148cm is just over 14.2!

15.1 wud be about 155cm? the height of a show cob?

Yep.

153 = 15 hands
155 - 15.1 hands

not really, cos i did working hunter with my pony and he was 14.3hh in the 15hh class - but you have to get an annual measurement and then you can be spot height checked at a show, but this is really unusual. they might ask to see a passport???

at dublin they never asked for anyone to be measured in my class (15hh whp)
