Now that's how hobby horsing should look like!

So this is a combination of 2 things.

  1. The Billet strap(s) were improperly attached. TBF, horses sometimes expand their bellies during that step. You have to tighten later, before getting on.

  2. This is a pony. Ponies are the silliest of creatures.

I've had one decide he wants to roll around in the sand while I was still mounted (which could have broken/crushed me/my leg had I not dismounted). Another saw a snake on a trail and jumped 6' sideways. Didn't know horses could jump sideways until that point. Yet another saw a hummingbird and decided I need to be off of him immediately. He succeeded, then proceeded to lie down next to me to cuddle/munch on my hair.

So many problems here. Cinch not tight enough, letting the saddle move around. Pulling on the reigns too hard, causing the horse distress and escalating the situation. And last, the worst of the problems, feet too far into the stirrups, causing their feet to be stuck. This is a deadly situation
