En ny bomövning syftar till att förbättra hästens böjning och ryttarens precision med hjälp av fem bommar.
Övningen kräver att fem bommar placeras i en rak linje med fyra meters mellanrum. Ryttare bör värma upp och sedan skritta mellan bommarna, där man rider vida serpentiner med jämn böjning genom svängarna. Efter att ha nått slutet leder en trekvartsvändning in i ridning över bommarna, innan övningen upprepas i motsatt riktning.
