A few years ago, I had my husband build me a seat enhancer. I call him my One Legged Pony. He can up, down, and side to side. He has been wonderful. It shows the rider that he is crooked. It also teaches the rider how to move those hips and not his back and shoulders. Having my pony has helped out a lot...he's a no brainer. :lol:

Learning how to control the pony with just body weight has been an eye opener. To make a left or right turn has been very interesting for my clients. And then to put the pony into a levade, how cool. But with him having only one leg, there are limits. :lol:

It's been very helpful, especially to show people how to move with the barrel with just your seat.

No, It's made from a 50 gallon barrel, so you're sitting on a round pony. You can sit on it forwards or backwards. there is a handle on the butt side and another person can make it go up and down and side to side and the rider has to move with the barrel. Or the rider can ask for a left or right turn and also try to stop the pony from moving.

I'm sorry but the barrel is a 35-40 gallon. :wink:

I should be able to post pics in a couple of days.
