Trick riding

Trick riding is an amazing sport. It takes hard work skills and ALOT of balance! But that's not all you have to have a trustworthy horse. When most people think of trick riding they might think only of the rider, but the horse is the other 50%. Trick horses are trained with voice commands for each gait.(Whoa=halt...) They also have to be able to be perfectly calm with a rider swinging all over their back while galloping around a ring. But trick rider + trick horse = A perfect match of trust and fun. Here are some pictures of horses and their riders.
