These photos were taken on 26th July, but partly show what Trine has been working on leading up to this date, so I use them to illustrate here. However well prepared a horse is for having someone sit up on their backs, it might react in such a way to unbalance the rider. And however good a rider is they cannot avoid moving their legs and body in such a situation. So it's extremely useful that the horse is used to sudden and unexpected movements from where a rider will be, in advance of being backed. One of the tings Trine does is fasten a rope to the stirrups, thus being able to move them up, out, fore and back while the horse is standing or moving. Biloxi reacted, though not much, the first couple of times, and then he was cool with it.
