  • Equestrian Studies Western Equipment List
    Equestrian Studies Western Equipment List Equestrian students are required to own and maintain the following equipment for their personal use in riding classes. Our faculty recognizes this list, though extensive, is not a complete list of equipment needed by professionals in our industry and is intended to accommodate the basic needs of students at the beginning of their careers. Substitution of some items is possible; however, the specific equipment listed below is recommended. During our first week of the academic year the incoming class tours local vendors for the purpose of acquiring supplies and equipment. Many students choose to leave the bulk of their personal gear at home and acquire a set of school equipment during the shopping days. Local vendors typically give discounts to RMC students on the items they purchase during the tours. If students have any questions, we recommend waiting until the faculty can assist in the purchasing process. We have strong opinions about what works best in our program and can best guide our students toward appropriate choices after the school year is underway. All personal gear should be clearly and indisputably labeled. Brass tags or plates riveted to leather tack are recommended. More economical “dog tags” can be purchased at a local PetSmart and work well to identify the owner. Additionally, black permanent markers can provide effective labeling of various items. Students may choose to color coordinate their gear using patterned duct tape or spray paint to create a distinctive “brand” on their equipment. Rider apparel Students need to manage their personal attire with a balance of professionalism in concert with practicality for weather conditions and budget.

  • 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.

  • Get the Most out of Your EQUIPMENT Expert Advice on Maximizing the Longevity of Your Gear
    Get the MOST OUT of Your EQUIPMENT Expert advice on maximizing the longevity of your gear By Sophia Chavonelle 64 Dressage Today April 2018 ost experienced horse owners recognize the value of appropriately maintaining tack and equipment for practical, financial, safety and sentimental reasons. You have probably developed your own meth- ods and routines, but is there something you could be doing better to extend the wear of your items? Or perhaps there’s an important Mdetail you’re overlooking. What are the best ways to bring your favorite pieces back to life, while maximizing longevity? In this article, equine industry professionals Yvonne Bryant of Equine TLC, an equine laundering and repairs service in Dicker- son, Maryland, and Jennifer Hetzler of Equus Now! tack store in Lewis Center, Ohio, bring to light the best ways to maintain your equestrian equipment and apparel to prolong their life. DT: How long should you expect most everyday equipment to last? Yvonne Bryant: I personally believe that the lifespan of any equipment or apparel begins with the quality of the item. I also believe you will get what you pay for, however, items you have purchased on-sale are exempt from this thought. Overall, any item used on a daily basis can last anywhere from three to seven years with the right care and maintenance. Jennifer Hetzler: • A saddle can be the second most expensive purchase one can make in their riding career, next to the purchase of an actual horse. First, you’ll want to make sure the saddle fits the rider as well as the horse.

    THE DRESSAGE RIDER’S HOW-TO GUIDE Braids? Polo wraps? We’ve got you covered. BY SHARON BIGGS IMPECCABLE: Beautiful braids, correctly ftting tack and attire, and excellent grooming complement the bloom of health and present your horse to his best advantage. Stefen Peters presents Ravel at the 2012 Olympic Games veterinary inspection. JENNIFER BRYANT 30 October 2012 t USDF CONNECTION very equestrian sport has a particular way of turning out horse and rider for competition, and dressage is no diferent. To call yourself a true DQ (that’s “dressage queen” for the uninitiated), Eyou need to master the big three: braiding, tail prep, and polo-wrap application (the latter of which will also come in handy should your horse’s legs need to be bandaged). You also need to know how to select and adjust a saddle pad for a fattering look and maximum horse comfort. In this article, a grooming expert and a tack-shop owner HUNTER BRAIDS: ofer step-by-step instructions. Bonus: A dressage judge Can be tied so they lie fat against the neck or with little knobs at the top, as shown here and longtime competitor and horse owner shares her pet peeves and advice on show turnout. How to: Braid for Dressage First, the rules. Although the US Equestrian Federation Rule Book states that braiding the horse’s mane for dres- sage is optional, the unwritten rule is always to braid, except perhaps for unrecognized competitions (schooling shows). Most dressage riders consider braiding a traditional form of showing respect for the judge and the competition, as well as a way of enhancing the look of their horses’ necks.

  • Riding Apparel and Equipment Lists 2020-2021
    RIDING APPAREL AND EQUIPMENT LISTS 2020-2021 FOR ALL EQUINE STUDIES MAJORS, MINORS, AND ELECTIVE RIDERS All items listed are required unless noted as optional. Note to all New Freshmen or Transfer Students: The Equine Studies Department recognizes that the list of items questions, we recommend that you wait to purchase any items in question. The University will offer a trip to a local tack shop during the first week or two of the Fall Semester. Many of the local tack shops offer a discount to Centenary students, be sure to bring your student ID or acceptance letter. The Equine Faculty feels strongly that you wait for their guidance if you are unsure about what to buy of any item. Some suggestions of what not to buy if you are unsure: helmets, show breeches, tall boots, show shirts and jackets, and saddles! In addition, some team coaches have specific requirements on their show clothes and they would be more than happy to help you during the first few weeks of school. Explanation of Helmet Policy: Proper protective headgear is an essential piece of equipment in all equestrian activities. Since all equine-related activities have some element of risk, the Equine Studies Department requires that all equine students wear ASTM/SEI (American Society for Testing and Materials/Safety Equipment Institute) approved helmets, with harness secured, when mounted at the Equestrian Center. Instructors have the right to check that students are wearing ASTM/SEI approved helmets with harness secured; however, it is the student’s responsibility (parent or guardian in the case of someone under eighteen) to ensure compliance with this rule.
