What is the correct mechanical bull riding position?

. To keep the ride safe and to ensure the longevity of the equipment, please ensure the rider uses the correct position:

• Sitting in the centre of the saddle.

• Leaning slightly back with the legs and feet pulled up backwards (as they would in stirrups).

• Holding onto the rope with one hand only.

• Do NOT ride around the neck. This is very

dangerous.

• Do NOT allow riders to use the horns & ears

as grab handles.
