Re: [RC] Length of Stirrup (was: Shoes for Rider) - Sharon LevasseurI have to shorten stirrups for competition because that's when Zephyr can be counted on to deliver the MONSTER TROT. He's just a little guy... 14.3h if he's 8 weeks out from a trim and he's wearing shoes... but he can trot with a 20" overstride. He's in the air for so long that I have to shorten my stirrups to get enough hang time. Some horses make a top-speed trot easy to ride, but not him. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v164/Sharon1359/9-3_54.jpg -Sharon L. in Maine =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
