About
"To rein a horse is not only to guide him, but also to control his every movement. The best reined horse should be willingly guided or controlled with little or no apparent resistance and dictated to completely. Any movement on his own must be considered a lack of control. All deviations from the exact written pattern must be considered a lack of or temporary loss of control; and therefore, a fault that must be marked down according to severity of deviation. After deducting all faults set here within, against execution of the pattern and the horse's overall performance, credit should be given for smoothness, finesse, attitude, quickness and authority of performing various maneuvers, while using controlled speed which raises the difficulty level and makes him more exciting and pleasing to watch to an audience."
- National Reining Horse Association
Reining is truly a crowd-pleasing sport. The difficulty combined with speed makes it a very exciting event to watch. This event has been growing rapidly in the last few years due to its popularity.
Ride N Slide is, I believe, the first-ever reining web clique. If you are a webmaster, and enjoy participating in or watching reining, please consider joining.
What is a web clique?
A web clique is a site that pertains to webmasters. It can be compared to a clique in real life; people with a common interest join together. By joining this clique, and putting the code on your web site, you are displaying your interest in reining, and, thus, becoming a member of the clique.
Please head on over to the rules, to see if your web site is eligible to join.
