Tip/Quote of the Day # 691

So often, riders are taught to "lean back" when going down hills and over drop fences. While this is better than leaning too far forward in either of those situations, you must remember that as a rider you are where your center of gravity is, not where your shoulders are. You will be in a better position to be in harmony with your horse going down hills and on fences with drops (or any time you need to be in a defensive position, as in this article), while keeping your hip angle closed with your hips well back.
