ABOUT USDavid Evans and Richard Taylor (also known as DERT) are based in Oxfordshire but travel across the world to build and design cross country courses and portable cross country jumps. Having begun his cross country coursebuilding career at Holker Hall Horse Trials in Cumbria in the late 1980s, David Evans began full time building in 1992, forming a partnership with Richard Taylor in 1998. They now design and build everything from private training courses and Pony Club courses to high profile International Advanced Three Day Events. David, Richard and the Evansjumps team built the Mike Etherington Smith designed course for the Olympic event in Hong Kong-to see the course in detail, visit our web gallery. Building largely for designers such as Mike Etherington Smith, Captain Mark Phillips, Ian Stark and Eric Winter, David and Richard work extensively in the UK but also in Canada, the USA, South Africa and Hong Kong. They are also involved in running (mainly non-UK) workshops on course building, design and safety.
