Re: RC: Abrasions on calves

[Onefarmgirl@aol.com]

Were you moving at a faster pace?   I found when I moved from doing almost 
exclusively trotting to more cantering, that I was swinging my leg, which 
caused abrasions.  Several things helped - got a better pair of half chaps 
(Ariat), worked more on my seat and balance, and being aware of leg position, 
and ultimately, changing from my english style saddle to a ZES, and later to 
the sport saddle.

best,
