The best distance to set between any two equestrian jumping fences depends on many variables. Strides Distance Calculator calculates a set of customized distances between equestrian jumping fences according to jump type, use, horse size, jump heights and ground slope. These variables can be selected using drop boxes. Distances are then displayed in both metric meters and imperial feet. Jump types include Verticals, Oxers, Triple Bars, Walls, Poles and Cross Bars. Distances uses include Jumping rounds (for competitions), Schooling Exercises or from trot. Horse size, set horse horses or varying pony sizes. Jump heights from 50cm to 1.50m. Finally slope of ground. After each drop box selection is made the distances will then be recalculated. The distances are then displayed in a table with a minimum and maximum distances for a bounce, one stride and then up to nine strides. Each distance is displayed in metric meters and imperial feet, so no conversions are required.

Forelock keeps everything about the horse in one place — the work, the feed, the farrier, the vet, the results — and puts it in your pocket for the moments that need it. ON EVENT DAY Your times, your rings, and what's actually happening at the gate. Walk the course knowing the surface, the entries, and how you've gone here before. AT THE YARD The day's work and feeds at a glance. Log a ride in seconds. Record a video and send it to your coach — and get their voice back over your own footage. THE WHOLE HORSE Every session, health event, shoeing and result builds the horse's record — so the story is there when the vet asks, when the season turns, or when a new rider takes over. Forelock is made at a working farm in North Canterbury, New Zealand, and shaped daily by the people who use it.
