Abstract: A light weight, folding, portable jump unit for use in horse jumping constructed of durable and weather proof materials. The unit is constructed in two halves that fold together so that their flat backs are touching. Fasteners hold the unit in a folded position and handles are provided on the top of the halves as a way of carrying the unit. In use, the halves are extended so that they are aligned with each other and are placed between the traditional jumping standards. Each half is provided with a broad base so that the unit is free standing and stable. The bases are optionally provided with grommets for admitting bouquets of artificial flowers, provided with a curtain for draping over a pole that extends between the jumping standards, and with one or more flaps onto which pole are placed for further stabilizing the unit.
