Saddle Jousting - Horse Back Gladiators
Once limited only to those of noble birth, this medieval jousting tournament is an enduring tradition from the Middle Ages.
Jousting was a dangerous sport and participants undertook years of training before risking their safety in a tournament.
Twoknights mounted on horseback and armed with lances would charge toward each other in an attempt to knock their opponent to the ground.
Now YOU can now participate regardless of your lineage and enjoy a blast from the past!
Rather than having dangerous, galloping horses charging at top speed toward you, our saddles are fixed in place.
Be prepared though, they spin around unpredictably as a result of riders momentum or after receiving a hefty blow from an opponents lance!
Enjoy swordplay upon a steed and safely re-live a sport that is 900 years old!
A hilarious wild west themed game of balance and skill.
