Vaulting horses

I remember when I could do this... *tear

Equestrian vaulting, or simply Vaulting, is most often described as gymnastics and dance on horseback, an equestrian act at the circus from its early days.

A lot of kids play soccer, others play chess, and some kids do handstands on the backs of galloping horses. It's a risky pastime, but parents say it teaches concentration and is a lot less expensive than other equestrian sports — even if it does take their breath away sometimes.

Horse vaulting is a specialized and competitive equestrian sport in which riders perform acrobatic and dance like maneuvers on horseback.
