W eights Art. 8 1 2 • Reason for the m odification:  Horse w elfare: • Weight is a way to control and reduce the increase of speeds.  Fair chances for m ale and fem ale contestants: • The tendency worldwide is for people to grow taller and therefore bigger. The average weight of a man is 77Kg and the average weight of a woman is 62Kg. A 75Kg seems to be a fair proposal.  Encourages the grow th and expansion of the discipline: • A fair weight requirement means that greater number of riders can compete under equal sporting conditions.
