Slalom is part of the ground work and is great fun! The pony is not ridden, however, but is guided on foot through slalom poles, alternating left and right. The slalom promotes the intelligence of the pony, is good for its health and also strengthens the trust between the human and the animal.

Fun Fact: In slalom, the pony is first led by the halter. With some training it will work later without this.
