Safe cross country riding

Riding across country is a very different technique and one that needs to be practiced before attempting your first event.

Different skills are needed to that of show jumping or practicing cross country type fences in the arena or field at home, even though that is a great way to start. 

To help you and your horse 'get your eye in' and build confidence over a variety of different types of fences that you may meet on an Eventing Canterbury course, there is no substitute for trying the real thing.
