Thank you Amberley Snyder for taking some time out to be on our podcast, Where Rodeo Meets the road. Amberley has always been a tough competitor. Winning the world title for National Little Britches. Her toughest battle was ahead of her. After five hours of emergency surgery the doctor’s prognosis was she would never regain use or feeling below her waist. He told her if she had worn her seatbelt, she would still have use of her legs. The one mistake she made that day changed her life forever, but it has not defeated her competitive spirit. The top priority for Amberley was not even to walk, but to ride her horses again. Remarkably after only 4 months after the accident, she was back on her horse. In 2015, Amberley was voted the fan exemption contestant at the world’s richest one day rodeo, comparable to the Super Bowl, RFD-TV’s The American. She competed with the best in the industry and was just 0.6 seconds short of the winning time and received a standing ovation from over 40,000 fans in AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Always a competitor, Amberley qualified for her first Pro Rodeo Wilderness Circuit Finals in 2021. She continues to compete as a professional athlete and has become one of the most sought-after social influencers and motivationalspeakers in western sports.

AH Performance stall mats are 100% made in the USA, both vinyl and foam mats ! They are a great addition to any therapy business, livestock shows, to be used while tied at trailers, and of course in stalls! They are VERY durable!
Each mat has vinyl top with anti slip texture. This makes the mats more durable and safer when wet!

Performance mats are easy to install: Simply roll out your mat and lay it where you want! Use multiple locations at the show. Only weighing 17lbs.
Mats are easy to clean and maintain. The durable vinyl surface is easy to clean with water, or just sweep or shake off. NON SLIP textured top so no slipping on our mats while wet.
