[BBP]

I know it isn't going to be everyone's cup of tea but for those of you who are interested, a little BBC clip of horse boarding.

(please be kind, I was just there to ride, wasn't expecting to be interviewed!)

I think it looks great, have had some info off Daniel and am going to give it a go when and if my horse becomes capable of doing it, Im going to do it on the beach though using a kitesurf board instead! looks great fun!

That was brilliant, well done you, I'm sure I wouldn't be able to speak coherently on the telly!

I saw it on telly and it looks brilliant! I'm just looking around for somewhere to do it near where I am based because I think my horse would love it!

If they think it hurts coming off a board they should try falling off a horse lol. The chestnut looks identical to my gelding

Having being dragged along by a horse before I may invent a bodyprotector with wheels and invent a whole new sport all together !!

The base is in Seisdon near Wolverhampton - if you look up Horse Boarding Championships on Facebook you can get all the details from Dan. It is really good fun and the horses don't seem to notice the pull of the rope at all. Biggest problem I have is that Rohan (the grey) gets so excited and keen to be off that we can't get the rope clipped on - it proves that a slow sensible horse can beat a fast horse horse as long as it is well behaved at the start!
