[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 61356, member: 9"] The tack around her back end is a "crupper" (loop in which her tail is put through) which has an oval shaped leather piece covering the tail head. The leather "Traces" on the sides below belly are "retrancas" which historically used to deflect brush and limbs on the trail. If the PP is on a loose rein (or by self w/o tack) it will go naturally into the gait as well as do other freestyle gaits, their pleasure. Bit is a short shank curb bit. Saddle has no horn and has a high back. Stirrups are carved out of solid block of wood and are attached after saddle is on. As such, impossible to get a foot caught in a stirrup--only hole is on back (foot) entry side. The pureblood PP horses have a 100% inherited natural gait evidenced minutes/hours after birth. Collection is "taught" a little (meshing rider with horse) by holding back their speed--they want to "go" (but not run away). All based on their lineage of the Spanish horses and their natural "fire", while being very trainable and manageable. Bill [/QUOTE]
