My brother built us a grooming stand, but after an aciddent, Rhino falling off, I found we needed more safety features. So far we are going to add a 2x6 lip on the stand, with 1 or 2 bars running along the side(removable for where we are clipping) With a 2x6 lip on the ramp itself.
Also, our plan is to back them off it. We are going to take the ramp off and practice getting they down it on a hill, on the ground. So if they fall, they just go onto the ground.
Any suggestions/ideas for either of thease 2 ideas would be great, hope to hear from you all.
I have included pics. The links are if you want acloser look.
Edited to add this, just read the twitch thread. I have one boy who isn't happy about getting clipped sometimes. We won't be doing the face on the stand, so that cut outs most worries. But should I be really worried about them freaking out up there and hurting themselves??
