The Racewood system is a fantastic riding simulator for those that would benefit from the mechanical movement of a simulator and allows the trainer to work closely with the rider enabling them to gain confidence and develop their skills. The interactive options allow for a more immersive riding experience.

Racewood has driven the development of new simulator designs that use the latest technologies. Simulators are increasingly becoming more interactive to the extent that riding subtleties that were once almost impossible to recreate, are now becoming standard features. They work hard to sync available technology with the simulator, so that a vast array of information can be captured and feedback to the instructor or rider, such as balance or rein contact. Current users find this level of analysis invaluable and obviously much easier to obtain when using a simulator.
