My horse has a very powerful jump...

Hi all!

Does anyone have any tips for staying in balance when your horse has a very powerful jump? He really lifts his back end quite high over the jump.

Its all good over the fence but I get launched out the saddle when landing!

Thanks

No advice, I'm sorry, but my horse was the same. It hurt my back that much I couldn't walk for a few days after jumping!! I'm sure you will get some good advice off here.

I'll try them shorter next time I jump.

I found my horse get unbalancing me and decided to try a different saddle - that worked a treat
