That is so cool. I almost bought one just for fun. I read they were used by women in the circus so the crowd thought they were bareback and just that good but they still had the stability of pommels to hang onto. Is that true?
Interesting. When I was younger, I might have been brave enough to try that with my old and trusted gelding. But with age and younger more active horses I think I'll pass on it now.
Angelina ... I cannot even imagine who would want to use this... OTHER than some kind of preformer!! I only stumbled across the picture on a web sight that was NOT in English!
I would SO use that. Really. I love to ride bareback and use a Natural Ride quite often to ride in very rough country, I feel far more secure that way.

You would need a very flat backed horse for that.
ANgelina: as far as I'm aware, these are still used by a number of circus performers...
