Tarpaulin
Practice & Competition
To walk calmly and confidently over.
How do I do this obstacle ?
Walk calmly over together
"Send" the equine over
A required halt
Where to start
Incremental steps
Allow investigation with nose and feet
Use the SAFE leading position until your equine is happy and confident walking across
Allow all the time he needs - it must be his decision to take the first step
Start small and increase the size of the tarp as confidence builds
Construction
Size 1.5 times the equines length
Ideally your chosen tarp should be thick and durable
Think about
If using outdoors, your tarp made need weighting down with poles and/or cones
