The oxer jump is a prominent feature in equestrian sports. Also known as oxer horse jump, horse jumping oxer, oxer jump horse, jump oxer, and oxer show jump, it consists of two rails that can be set evenly or unevenly. This creates a jump that has both width and varying heights depending on the setup.
The oxer jump presents a significant challenge for horses and riders. It requires the horse to have the ability to judge distance and clearance accurately, as well as the power and agility to clear a wide obstacle. Different setups of the oxer, such as an ascending oxer where the front rail is lower than the back rail, add further complexity to the jump.
In competitions, the oxer jump is often used in different levels depending on the difficulty and skill requirements. It tests the cooperation between the horse and rider and their ability to handle complex obstacles. Whether in show jumping or other equestrian events, the oxer jump plays an important role in showcasing the skills and abilities of both the horse and the rider.
