Jumping discipline
FROM HISTORY

Show jumping is one of the oldest equestrian disciplines, in fact there is evidence of it as early as 1350 BC. in a first manual of Hurrian Kikkuli. But it’s only is in 1700 that show jumping becomes an equestrian discipline: originally the purpose of this discipline it was to train horses and riders for hunting and warfare, who constantly have to jump the natural fences placed along their route. Show jumping took a technical turn with the Italian Federico Caprilli in the early 1900s, with the invention of natural riding, which is a way to jump fences in a greater respect of the horse, of his body and his jumping movement. In fact, at the beginning of 1900 the first show jumping competition was held in Paris; and then became an Olympic discipline in the Stockholm games.


Today, show jumping is widespread all over the world and there are circuits of the highest level such as the World Cup, the Longines Global Champions Tour, the Rolex Grand Slam and of course European and World championships at intervals of respectively two and four years. In the special computer list drawn up regularly by the International Equestrian Federation, Veredus counts no less than six ambassadors among the top ten riders.
