Early in 2005 the Independent horse, working with The Company of Horsemen and Matt Smith from Air Jam of Newquay, were the first in the world to tow a kite board behind a horse. This was the birth of horse surfing . In the summer of that year the Daily Mail printed one of the pictures. Since then the Independent Horse has become less of a team in the background or behind the camera but a team that the world wants to know about, getting recognition from Australia and Taiwan to America and the Middle East.

This was only the beginning over recent years the team has continued to push the limits and break new ground with world firsts. They were the first and only team in the world to trick ride and tow at the same time. They are also the only team ever to Roman ride whilst towing two kite boards.
