Saddle-bronc riding is similar to the bareback event except that the rider is mounted on a light, specialized saddle called an Association saddle. He holds on to a single piece of rope that is attached to the horse's head by a halter. As in bareback riding, the rider must use only one hand and must not touch anything with his free hand. 1, record 2, English, - saddle%2Dbronc%20riding

Monte d’un cheval sellé.(...) La simplicité même : une selle est prestement jetée sur le râble d’un animal tout à fait sauvage(...), surpris, furieux, mort de trouille, que l'on a préalablement coincé entre les planches d’une solide palissade afin qu'il puisse littéralement "éclater" quand la porte s’ouvre.(...) Chaque monture reçoit le même type de selle et une longe de six pieds de long. Pour le cavalier : des éperons courts, aux molettes émoussées. Ne jamais toucher les épaules du cheval avant qu'il soit retombé sur ses pattes, le premier saut effectué. Et puis tenir une main en l'air, celle libérée de la tenue de la longe. 1, record 2, French, - monte%20d%26rsquo%3Bun%20cheval%20sell%C3%A9
