What is the ideal fringe size for a height of 160cm?

Hello,

I'm just over 160cm tall, and my 1.5-year-old pony mare is about 133cm. I'm very excited to see how tall she'll grow (dam is 140cm, sire unknown). I'm wondering what size would be optimal for me, especially visually. I hope she continues to grow well.

If the horse turns around the 1.40, you’ll be within 1.60. The size ratio is not favourable, but still goes.

For a body size of 1.60, the horse or holding Pony should be at least 1.40m. At least.
More than that.

endmasspony must be for you. if it’s a reitpony.

and you are too big as a free time rider with 1.60m.

for riding and for basic training, if it is ready (in 3.5 years) a professional preparer on it.

that at a 1.5 year young foals the father is unknown is amazing.

You can’t say much because you don’t write in which type that’s stealing.

Not at all. Grade another final pony.

Ponys up to a certain stock size are actually underproportioned for adult people as well as ever. At 1.60 you have an average body size for a woman.

It is increasingly better for the horse if it has to carry as little as possible. Of course you don’t want to hear that as a horse holder. But at best every rider is as small as possible and the horse that is ridden is as large and strong as possible.

In practice, it doesn’t always look so natural.

PS. A rule of thumb is: The weight of the rider + saddle and accessories should not weigh more than 10% of what the horse weighs.

This rule of thumb no longer applies, even the 15% are overhauled. On a poorly or not muscled horse with a rather rectangular body shape and long back like a hair, 40kg can be too much. While a well muscled, compact rather square horse can also get a few kg more of rider weight.

In addition, according to these insane rules, no man should be on the horse. When starting from a WB with about 600 – 650 kg and from a male. Duch cut weight 75 – 80 kg + equipment.

It is always individual to consider. And equipment is not equal to equipment. ZB is a Western saddle with wood tree of course much heavier than a conventional dressage/VS/spindle. For this, the weight distribution works on a much larger area, which in turn is more economical for the horse. U. it plays a big role, which makes the rider weight up there. If jmd can ride well, the horse doesn’t bother, it can be a much more pleasant rider than jmd with little weight but much movement.

The question was also about the size ratio, not weight. And a horse in proportion to great rider hurts a horse even if he only brings small weight.

Well, yes, in principle correct, but a little exaggerated, the superlatives are then…

If a person of under 160 sits on a horse of over 180, this is by no means optimal.

This makes you hard at the border to the underweight.

Nevertheless, you tend to be too big and hard for your horse. But these are all just indicative values.

I don’t think I’m a good idea. This is extremely unhealthy, especially for women. Better you perfect your riding skills, so your horse gets as little stressed as possible while riding.

Of course, it is just a target – healthy horses. Heavy men, as well as women, should in principle abandon riding. Where “heavy” begins, you have to look at each other. The maximum 10% is simply the optimum.
