as some of you might know i help out a horse shows here in nz about 50+ shows in the last 7 years.

at the last few show i keep hearing the same thing from some of the show people-that good safe jump gear is to much work ie using safey cups on the back and midde of jumps (show jump) ( safey cups are in 2 paces and come apart when the horse hits the back pole hard (with out then the horse can brank the pole or get cought up in the jump here in nz the jump poles are 12-20 kg each 4m long and about 10-12 cm acourse

when i say anything the people just dont want to know or say that the jumps would fall down to easy (if you dont hit the jumps hard then they wont fall down then will they?)

sorry about the spelling as it 5 am also my dyspraxia is not helping my typeing
