The rider gilet has transformed my daughter’s riding. At only 14 she has grown very fast and lacks the core strength to ride effectively. The gilet supports her to keep her posture tall and not load her weight onto the horses shoulders.
The result has been amazing: the horse is going forward like never before and jumping freely and as a combination they are back to enjoying riding. The hi-viz cross on the back makes it clear to see when she is sitting straight.
I can see that the gilet is speeding up learning and building core strength and I think it will save my a lot of money in coaching and entry fees for abandoned rounds. I wish I had bought one earlier!
