They should make it actually ACT like a horse.. For example, bucking. I don't know about you, but I belive a horse simulator that buck's will help your balance!!
Gotta say, nice idea, but nothing like the real thing, horses move the saddle differently. You will sorta tip on each side then they move. It won’t be as smooth as this.
I love the robot but it is unrealistic a canter is bumpy And the robot looks so smooth and rocking and jumping you get thrown back and your out of the seat 😡
It would be cool if the sensors were integrated into the saddle and the tack, and the results visible in augmented reality glasses, so you could compare it to a real ride.
I almost never get to ride, but even I know that you are supposed to leave your seat at *least* a bit during the jump. Also the rocking that is supposed to be a canter looks really unnatural :/
I once tried one of these and it may not have been the most realistic. But it did show me some things I needed to improve, and it was very helpful since I could focus a little more on myself rather than my spook-prone horse. 😂
also these machines arent rocking back and forth they go in a circular motion and jerk around quite a bit. as well as (at least the one i rode), how jolsty the horse was depented on how well you rode it
ive riden one of these before multiple times when i was younger and i ride still now on reall horses the machine is meant to help with form and techniqe so you can focus with out having to worry about the horse you know how riding in a round pen or arena is compared to riding on trails or field this is like the round pen version of the round pen and although the one i rode had alot more power atleast compared to what i can see. this isnt meant to be like the olympic ring its a training tool as well as the momentum when riding is forward and back while this is down momentum which i can say from experiance makes it very hard to trot
I mean it’s really not fair for everyone to be comparing this to a real horse. We are all well aware that it’s not the same experience. A horse is a living, breathing animal with a mind of its own. Horses are like people at times-they have personalities, make mistakes, have off days, etc. They’re not robots, and the creators and riders of this simulator are well aware of that. They remade the experience of riding a horse and well as they could, but it’s obviously not going to be exactly the same. I don’t think that people should have as high a standard for this simulator as they do. And to everyone commenting rude things about the rider’s position 1. Riding a simulator horse is a lot different from riding a real one-you may have to ride the two a bit differently 2. So let’s just say that actually is her 2-point position. It’s incredibly rude to be saying that she shouldn’t be riding real horses because you think her position is bad. Everyone always has something to learn about horseback riding-something about themselves that they’re working on. For example, I lean forward too much. Constructive criticism is awesome when given respectfully, but flat out insulting her is just wrong. Are you trying to help her or tear her down to boost your ego?
This is a good idea if it's for exercise purposes only. And not to mention the price, the graphics are bloody awful for that price I would expect 4k quality.
