Definice a Význam "puissance"

What is "puissance"?

Puissance is a showjumping event where riders attempt to jump over a high wall or vertical fence, with the height of the jump increasing after each round. The competition tests the horse's ability to clear increasingly higher obstacles, with the last round often reaching impressive heights. Riders and horses are eliminated if they fail to clear the jump without knocking it down. Puissance is typically held as a special event in major equestrian competitions, and it is known for its dramatic display of jumping ability and skill.
