What other tricky pieces of tack have you been struggling with (or fondly remember struggling with in the past!)?

@sarahj9900 4 жыл бұрын

I used to always find that I would put my close contact saddle way too far back, so I remember going into the ring and my trainer sliding my saddle up by like 6 inches XD (I was never really taught how to tack up unfortunately, I just kind of had to figure it out on my own)

@RidingWithRhi 4 жыл бұрын

Oh trust me, it still happens to me occasionally! i managed to twist a bit and have my instructor call that out a few months ago + help me set it right. I had taken it off to add the rubber bit guards and put it back on backwards - it was a new bit i hadn't used before so i got confused! Trainers are the best!

Their is this pony at my stable and she wears like a buckle on her back which attaches to her saddle and then hooks round her tail do you know what it is ??

@RidingWithRhi 4 жыл бұрын

Rosie Ferguson yes, that’s called a Crupper. It does a similar thing to the 5 point breastplate you see in this video, but instead of stopping the tack from sliding back (which a breastplate does) a crupper stops a saddle from sliding forwards :)

This was SO helpful! I do know how to rack up but no horses at the yard I ride at wear martingale or grackle bridles! There is only one pony who wears but guards and I can never tack him up because of them! Thank you so much for making this video, I have left it feeling so confident! 😊

Here my dumb butt was near tears in the tack shed because I got my first 5 point and I couldn’t figure out how the heck to get it through the dee ring on the girth. I feel dumb but relieved that it’s the same as my initial martingale.

@RidingWithRhi 3 жыл бұрын

Yes! It looks like quite a contraption when you first see it doesn’t it! You’re right - Very similar for a martingale, just the extra straps around the top of the saddle and the sides of the girth ☺️

@whinnie216 Жыл бұрын

I know this is an older video but I have a question for anyone that can answer!!! I just got a standing martingale and I thought I heard that you cannot use it with a figure 8 bridle, which is what I have. I don’t understand why? I was hoping you were going to go into that in the video! Please help!!! Tia!!!

@RidingWithRhi Жыл бұрын

You shouldn’t attach a standing martingale to a grackle (figure 8 bridle) because, unlike a running martingale which attaches to the reins, a standing martingale sits on the back of the noseband. The grackle is what’s known as a “dropped” noseband which sits on a different part of the nose to a “standard” noseband (a cavesson). Therefore, attaching a standing martingale to it puts undue pressure and risk of injury on the nose and jaw of the horse because of where the grackle sits on the face. Standing martingales should only ever be used with cavesson nosebands for this reason.
