How To Ride Bareback

[claytonman1234]

Your horse is soo cool. Wen I ride bareback I always feel like I'm slipping and I only trot but do u have any advice?? That would help Thanx. Cute horse. Ur amazing at riding!!!!!

@claytonman1234

thank you! :)

and i just suggest practicing bareback! trotting is actually harder than cantering bareback, so when you feel comfortable, try cantering.

also, if you are riding in a saddle, try doing no stirrup work. that helps with balance and really helps you get the feel of ur horse!

That gait is very similar to the Paso Fino horse.

You're such a good rider! I would do all that stuff bareback but my horse has the world's bounciest and uncomfortable trot! xD

[EqRiderW426]

@OverTheJump

aww thank you! :D

try some no stirrup work. then a fluffy bareback pad is good to start with. and before you know it, you'll be riding fully bareback like a pro! lol
