Task · part of 9. The tack: ten parts, fitted, and getting on and off
9(c). Mount and dismount safely
Required
Demonstrated. Requirement 11 begins with a mount and ends with a dismount, so this is the same skill under examination twice.
Notes and warnings
Note. Requirement 11 opens with a mount and closes with a dismount, so this skill is examined twice, once on its own here, and once inside the continuous ride where a scrappy dismount spoils an otherwise good sequence.
