Does anyone have personal experience with the Tech Capri Plus stirrups? It seems very appealing to me, but before getting one, I would love to read some personal opinions anout it🤍 I would use it for dressage.

We did a lot of research on safety stirrups and decided to go with Lemieux, which open from the bottom, so there's even less possibilities of something going wrong

Dressage competition colors?

When showing in dressage do I only wear a black shoe coat or could it be any other colors? I really like the Navy PS of sweden and would love to wear it!

In the Netherlands you have some restrictions on what to wear. For example: breeches has to be white, a shade of white or light grey. Nothing else is allowed. But the jacket can be all kinds of colors. It just needs to be a colbert version. The blouse or shirt underneath has to have a closed color. The saddlepad can be all colors. But in dressage everybody rides with a plain white version. In jumping, there are more colors in the arena. Just look up the rules of your country and then just be creative 🙌

The Hungarian competition rules for show jackets: "Tails/jackets: any solid color tails/jacket is permitted. Striped or multi-colored tails or jackets are not allowed. Tasteful and discreet decorations are permitted." It's worth checking your own country's competition rules, as others have mentioned, or you can refer to the FEI website, where the information is surely available💕

Posting on your phone

Does anyone else have any issues posting on your phones? It won't let me for some reason!! I post and it just disappears.

It happens, especially if you try to post photos or vids- but go to your profile, hit recent activity, and see if it pops up there. Sometimes it takes a minute. If it's not there, then it really did fail.

Airbag vest

Does anyone here ride with an airbag vest? I ride with a Free Jump. I want as light and flexible a vest as possible. The Free Jump is a light vest in itself but it is the cartridge that is heavy. I talked to Peder Fredriksson at GHS where he launched his own airbag vest. I tried it but no major difference to mine. Does anyone here have a light airbag with a not too heavy cartridge?

@JeanetteW I agree with Meg comments , the sound can make the horse very scary and it happened in the riding school next to our barn. Thank to the same useful advise I have orientated my choice towards the new generation of Hit air complet 3 as the cartridge are less noisy. As you mentioned it is very sensitive when we ride emotional horses.

@BerengereA Thank you for your input. I will read about that vest you use. This is an interesting topic. One is not 20 years old anymore and wants to ride safely 🙏🥰

Patting vs scratching

I saw a debate online about patting a horse vs scratching a horse, as some say that patting can hurt the horse and feels like a punishment, while scratching is a natural behaviour that horses even do to each other. I've always been taught to pat as a reward, but this has got me thinking. Which do you prefer and why?

I have no knowledge on the matter but I'll say that the little foal in our club, whenever wants physical contact, comes and asks for scratches 😛

I thought about this while I rode today and scratched his mane when he was a good boy 😆 He seemed to like it

Katja Breggings

Has any of you bought the Katja Breggings? What type of fabric is it? Same as Cindy, ie thicker type fabric OR more like Jocelyn OR Taylor? Im not a big fan of the Cindy Breggings and really hope its the same as Taylor or even Martina? Your input will be appreciated🙏🏼

@Josie the Katja ones are more silky feeling and more flexible than Martina. It feels like the fabric of Martina is a bit more like classical breeches.

Oooh I'd love a coffee-themed one, like soft brown with creme ruffle or something, resembling a cappuccino 💁‍♀️ I am riding in beige breeches, brown equipment and boots, and usually combine it with whiite/beige/creme tops ✨
