Who is a "showjumper"?
A showjumper is a rider who competes in show jumping, a sport where riders guide their horses over a series of obstacles, such as fences and walls, within a set time limit. The goal is to complete the course without knocking down any of the obstacles or exceeding the time limit. Showjumpers must have strong riding skills, quick reflexes, and excellent control of their horses. The sport requires precision and timing, as riders work to clear each jump as smoothly as possible while maintaining speed and focus.
