Correct and incorrect methods for using clips and thimbles on wire rope. The saddle of the clip rests against the ``live'' portion of the wire rope while the U-bolt rests on the short, ``dead'' portion of the wire rope. Using clips improperly severely weakens the connection, making it unsafe. Remember: never saddle a dead horse.

At a high level of horse riding horse riders sit level of the horse?

The rider should not sit in the front or the back, but should be dead center, so they do not throw the horse off balence. Like if tyou sit on a barrel on its side and lean back, the barrel will tip up. If you lean forward, the barrel will tip back. If you sit in the center, the barrel will stay in place. This sounds easy, but it is very difficult to master staying in the center all the time, but it is essential to a good ride.
