Re: [RC] Keeping one's seat (posting height) - Ed & Wendy Hauser"...How can this possibly be advantageous?" My relatively biased observations are that some English show instructors/riders exaggerate the post, much as QH show people would produce peanut pushers when the standard said "low natural head carriage". They think that by posting higher, they or their students will place higher at the show. After awhile they all think that posting means to rise as high as possible. Disclaimer: I do not ride in the English tradition, so I may be completely wrong. If I am, please correct me gently.
