  • The Vaquera Saddle with White Ornamentation, Where the Leather Is Tooled to Show a White Background
    Viva Iberica Webshop Yeguada Iberica main site THE TRADITIONAL VAQUERA SADDLE Sometimes called a Vaquero saddle History The silla vaquera, or vaquera saddl is the everyday saddle used today and for past centuries by the Spanish Vaquero, probably the original cowboy, working in the fields and mountains of Spain. Vaquera saddles are also used for vaquero competition – or Doma Vaquera (translated as vaquero horse training, or dressage) - as well as when testing the fighting bulls and cows (Acoso y Derribo) and in the Ferias of Spain and of course for every day country riding. The vaquera or vaquero saddle is both comfortable for the rider and the horse, designed for many hours use every day and it has a large comfortable contact area over the horse’s back - a much greater contact area than the modern general purpose, dressage or jumping saddle. Traditionally vaquera saddles are covered in a sheepskin which is held in place by leather thongs, which may also be used for tying equipment to the saddle, or for emergency tack repairs when working out on the range. Illustrated is an everyday plain Vaquera Lisa saddle. The traditional vaquera or vaquero saddle tended to be heavy (and would be used with the relatively heavy steel ‘bucket’ stirrup) and were traditionally stuffed with rye straw and the panels filled with animal hair. Over time these could mould to the shape of the horse’s back. This design is still available today. Saddle development Utilising modern technology and development some manufacturers in Spain now produce vaquera saddles made to the traditional design and style but incorporating modern high-tech materials.

  • Mark Salas Oriented Orienteering with Lots of Fun Surprises
    The Wild Times August 2018 ROC helpline: (585) 310-4ROC (4762) Web site: roc.us.orienteering.org Find us on Facebook and on Meetup.com The official newsletter of the Rochester (NY) Orienteering Club ROC President's Corner... by Doug Hall "A volunteering safety bearing" Many of us have had the experience while orienteering of becoming "lost". I have had this experience myself on more than one occasion. It can feel scary not knowing exactly where you are, especially when you don't see or hear other runners . However, there is almost always a sure-fire way to get back to civilization. The "safety bearing" can help you find a road or path to get back to the lodge. It has occurred to me that I have never been truly lost; I always had that safety bearing. I also was never truly alone, because there were people who knew where I had gone and who were awaiting my return. They even knew approximately how long I had been out in the woods. Those people weren't even that far away, really. Coming to this realization turned a scary experience completely on its head. It felt pretty good! Our club is made up of really great people. Volunteers organize and run all of our events, which is one of the reasons why orienteering is such a great bargain in the realm of sports and recreation. There are people who volunteer to create or update the highly detailed maps we all use. Other people volunteer to design multiple courses for an event, so everyone who shows up has an appropriate choice available to them.

  • Unit 3 – INJURY PREVENTION Lecture Notes Taping
    Exercise Science/Sports Medicine Unit 3 – INJURY PREVENTION Lecture Notes Taping Objective 2: Demonstrate theory and principles of prophylactic taping. A. Analyze the basic principles of prophylactic taping. Prophylactic taping is a preventive technique used for the protection, stabilization and care of athletic injuries. General Guidelines 1. Preparation a. The athletic trainer and athlete should be in a comfortable position. i. The athlete should be high enough so the athletic trainer doesn’t have to lean over. ii. Try to make the athlete comfortable but maintain the extremity in the correct position while it is being taped. b. Place taped body part away from mechanism of injury i. Ankle – place in 90° dorsi flexion plus slight eversion. c. Be sure the area is dry, clean, and free of body hair. i. The area does not always have to be shaved when using underwrap (Pre- wrap). ii. Underwrap helps to protect the skin but decreases the efficiency of the tape. d. Use some form of tape adherent (Spray) to ensure bonding of the tape to the skin. i. Cuts, blisters, and rashes should be covered with a clean non-stick pad prior to the use of adherent or tape. ii. If underwrap is used, only one layer should be applied over the tape adherent. e. In areas with potential for friction blisters or burns, apply a lubricated pad. i. Heel-and-Lace pad with Skin Lube ii. 2. Taping a. Select width of tape according to body part. b. Begin with anchors on top and bottom to provide a base for other strips to attach to.

  • Horse Power: Social Evolution in Medieval Europe
    ABSTRACT HORSE POWER: SOCIAL EVOLUTION IN MEDIEVAL EUROPE My research is on the development of the horse as a status symbol in Western Europe during the Middle Ages. Horses throughout history are often restricted to the upper classes in non-nomadic societies simply due to the expense and time required of ownership of a 1,000lb prey animal. However, between 1000 and 1300 the perceived social value of the horse far surpasses the expense involved. After this point, ownership of quality animals begins to be regulated by law, such that a well off merchant or a lower level noble would not be legally allowed to own the most prestigious mounts, despite being able to easily afford one. Depictions of horses in literature become increasingly more elaborate and more reflective of their owners’ status and heroic value during this time. Changes over time in the frequency of horses being used, named, and given as gifts in literature from the same traditions, such as from the Waltharius to the Niebelungenlied, and the evolving Arthurian cycles, show a steady increase in the horse’s use as social currency. Later epics, such as La Chanson de Roland and La Cantar del Mio Cid, illustrate how firmly entrenched the horse became in not only the trappings of aristocracy, but also in marking an individuals nuanced position in society.
