The only thing that I do not like about it is that design of the connection beween panels (I'm sure I have better pictures somewhere on my blog that shows it slower up). The pin/loop design is easy to use, but it allows a little bit too much give between panels. I wish that connection brought the panels closer so there wasn't such a gap between panels (a leg could get caught in there in a really bad situation). Plus, on a circle, the panels all lean in slightly or out slighty, depending on how they are balanced together. They could stand straight up if I had tension on them all just right, but naturally, they want to lean intogether. This effect is hardly noticeable at all, and is only noticeable in that the gate doesn't sit perfectly level, so I have not really made an effort to correct it, even though I could adjust it.Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17723871612780795334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830461055504948600.post-61940236936625003102012-02-08T19:17:05.058-06:002012-02-08T19:17:05.058-06:00I just found your blog & saw the you got your ...I just found your blog & saw the you got your round pen from chubby Baird. I've thought about buying one from them but was hesitant bc I don't know anyone who has dealt with them. Is yours holding up? Still happy with it? I'd love to hear how you like it now that you've had it for a while.

Recently I thought I might have that problem with Tonka but it turned out to be me. I asked my chiropractor to check me out and he did a few things but I haven't ridden since.<br /><br />Funny about the cantering issues, I'm having some questions about Bella too, and leaning toward it being mostly mental and partly physical.<br /><br />I'm glad the new saddle is working! It's nice.<br /><br />I can't wait to see your new round pen all set up, and the work you do with Griffin and Kachina.Andrea -Mustang Sagahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00576342393431178404noreply@blogger.com
