Bareback Bronc Riding
Rick Simmons (1999)
A specially designed collection of leather and cinches used for this event is called a "bareback rigging". Compared to the bull rope, this one is really tied on to the animal and has a built-in hand hold. Another difference is that the rider must start the ride with both of his or her feet extended forward over the horse's shoulders on the first leap out of the chute. If the rider misses this, called "marking out", he or she will receive a penalty.
