First of all, we analyse the different basic and necessary items that the rider must have in order to perform this beautiful discipline:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Riding helmet<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

The helmet is one of the fundamental elements that you must acquire for horse riding. It is mainly used <\/span>to protect the rider’s head against possible falls and blows<\/span><\/b> that may occur during practice. It is important to choose a helmet that <\/span>meets the highest quality standards and is certified<\/span><\/b> to fit your head perfectly.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Riding clothes<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

The riding outfit for the rider consists mainly of clothing such as <\/span>comfortable trousers<\/span><\/b>, <\/span>suitable jackets to protect you against adverse weather conditions<\/span><\/b> and a pair of quality gloves<\/span><\/b> that give you a good grip on the reins of the horse. In addition, you can choose this clothing in different designs to suit your personal style and taste.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Footwear suitable for horse riding<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Finally, you can’t overlook getting a pair of boots suitable for horse riding. <\/span>This type of specialised footwear is tailored to fit snugly in the horse’s stirrups and protect your feet<\/span><\/b>. It is essential that these shoes have a small heel and are lined on the inside for maximum comfort.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Some of the must-have items for your horse are as follows:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Saddle and stirrups<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

One of the must-have items for horse riding is the saddle. It is <\/span>important that the saddle is perfectly adapted to the horse’s back<\/span><\/b> so that the rider can secure it safely and avoid damage and discomfort to the animal. <\/span>The stirrups<\/span><\/b>, on the other hand, <\/span>are essential to place the rider’s feet at the right height<\/span><\/b> so that the rider can maintain perfect balance on the horse’s back.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Bridles and reins<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Communication between rider and horse is essential in this discipline and the method of achieving this is through the bridle and reins. There is a wide variety of these elements that <\/span>must be adapted to the training and comfort of your horse<\/span><\/b> and, of course, they must be in good condition for the performance of the riding discipline to be a success.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
