    Anyone else love the way he encouraged his horse and praised him after almost every jump? Great horse.

    I must say, what a pleasure to watch! Its lovely to see a horse being allowed to flow at their own pace and being praised for what we take for granted.

    It's good! You don't find very many riders life him who encourage there horses like that. At my riding club were half the riders are only jumping like 70cm push there horses to hard then just jump off and hand there reins to there parents and friends and don't even give there horses any praise but he took the time to make sure the horse was alright over the jumps! Love this!

    @seniorenyore Před 9 lety +1

    Awe what a good boy and what a loving rider! Very great pair. It's lovely to see when a horse really tries and he gets rewarded with cheers from the crowd and nice pats from his owner :) I give my horse pats after everything we do. Every jump, every course, every time we do some flat work and when we come down to the walk and we take a break he gets a pat. My horse sometimes gets evasive. So randomly spooking at things when he doesn't want to work, but I help him see with pats and working through it that it helps his work ethic.

    One of the most instructive go-pro cams recording I've seen, thanks to your clever inserting the next fence in the upper left corner. Thank you! Also congrats on such a honest horse!! :)

  • @RapingBear
    @RapingBear Před 11 lety

    So nice to see a rider who doesn't push the horse too hard and just encourages him all the way around the track. If more riders acted like this then maybe there would be less accidents. Great rider, great horse, loads of respect for eachother. Pure pleasure to watch.

  • @jasmijnvanderborg8888
    @jasmijnvanderborg8888 Před 10 lety +17

    You're saying that your horse is jumping quite well, your horse din't jump well HE JUMPED AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Don't be shy! You have to be proud on your horse! And you can let everyone knew it!

  • @MarianneD1952
    @MarianneD1952 Před 11 lety

    I'm a Western rider....however I love watching the jumping and dressage. I do so appreciate the kind encouragement you give Rocky. He seems very smooth and attentative to your words and signals. I was surprised how narrow some of the jumps appeared. Splendid video!

  • @kristenking669
    @kristenking669 Před 8 lety +1

    it's very nice to see a rider who gives his horse encouragement instead of beating him with a whip. you both did fantastic! you can tell that you two connect.

    @natalieweatherford1623 Před 11 lety

    Wow, I dont even ride horses but I am just blown away with the partnership between the horse and the rider! I am a animal lover and I love how the rider encourages and acknowledges the horses's hard work. Great video

  • @iloveanimals4eva

    He is a very brave and gorgeous horse. I bet you was very proud of him. He jumped that course extremely well! x

  • @haley19508
    @haley19508 Před 10 lety +4

    I like how this guy talks and the fact that he encourages his horse. I know many riders due to me being a rider myself. Who get angry when their horse stops at a fence because they aren't encouraging or giving any form of leg.

  • @maybedeathisagift
    @maybedeathisagift Před 9 lety

    The potential for rider education on technique provided from commentary on videos such as these is huge! Love it!

  • @agentfungus9742
    @agentfungus9742 Před 9 lety

    Am I the only one who was breathing and holding my breath in rhythm during this awesome vid? I had to decide whether to dry my eyes or pry my jaw off the ground afterwards. Holy cow. What total trust and communication between horse and rider.

  • @cammicupcake
    @cammicupcake Před 11 lety

    Wow. Just wow. I am FLABBERGASTED at how in shape this horse and rider are! I mean really, over ten minutes at the canter/gallop while jumping very intense jumps? Just wow. This was AMAZING to watch! Thank you so much for sharing! Makes me feel like the showing I do (Arab Hunter Pleasure) is ridiculously easy. Bravo!

  • @icicecoke
    @icicecoke Před 9 lety +1

  • @fantellerhur
    @fantellerhur Před 10 lety +1

    Oh, Lord! I have never jumped cross country, but it looks incredibly hard core! The tracks are so stretched out, and the jumps are massive (and scary..). Well done to both of you! x

  • @taylorjohnson5400
    @taylorjohnson5400 Před 9 lety +2

    Wonderful job that was a huge course and your horse did it so well! i dont think my eyes left my screen! it was a pleasure to watch and smile when you rewarded your horse with a good pat, glad to see there are still lots of good riders out there.

  • @katndave2000
    @katndave2000 Před 11 lety

    Wow, that was so amazing. I truly appreciate the attention to detail of the horse during the video. I felt like I was right there on the horse and going through each jump with you. I love the encouraging pats you gave the horse and the horse was responding to you as you needed him to slow down or speed up. Thank you and I loved watching.

  • @calinfundin3926
    @calinfundin3926 Před 8 lety +1

    Wonderful partnership. Brave, honest horse and kind, skillful rider. The course looked challenging, but you negotiated it perfectly. Good to see such care for a young horse, I'd love to see what he's doing now

    "The more I encouraged him, the braver and better he got." So true!! I'm training a 7yo Morgan-X (in profile pic) that was a lawn ornament for most of his life before I bought him, and he's just blossoming with lots of practice and praise. Once he figures out he can do something, he just loves it. Great video!

  • @tillydesa5479

  • @watermelon520b
    @watermelon520b Před 12 lety

    I really love how you encourage your horse instead of just riding the marshmallows out of him. This was a great way to spend my evening; I can vividly remember that wonderous feeling of soaring over a fence - it's just like flying. :-) Thank you!

  • @hesteyrihorses1958

  • @MrThebodon
    @MrThebodon Před 12 lety

    This was fantastic. Great work. The inset from the course walk made it all the more interesting. Mike's commentary makes you feel as if you were there with him. It was great to feel a part of the relationship with the horse and to tune into him. You have a winning formula. Looking forward to more.

  • @stawr8
    @stawr8 Před 12 lety

    Thank you so much for sharing these videos! They're really informative and it's great to see an upper level rider treat their horse so well :) I love the fact that you talk a lot about your horse's confidence and mentality. There were a couple times where I could hear you say "good boy" followed by a pat on the neck. Fantastic!

  • @originaldeftom
    @originaldeftom Před 9 lety +7

    Amazing! I loved observing the horse's ears that give away so many clues. One fine rider and a truly spectacular horse. This is how it is done. Challenging perhaps but not extreme like the Grand National that I still think should be banned in its current shape and form.

  • @westmorelandroad
    @westmorelandroad Před 11 lety

  • @kerryanderson5346
    @kerryanderson5346 Před 11 lety

    I really like that you untack your own horse at the end, even though you are probably breathing hard, tired and thirsty. I see SO many professional riders hand the horse straight over to the groom when they get off...like they are a machine that they are finished using. Congrats on a beautiful round!

    So cool! Thanx for filming, have showed to some friends so they could experience and see why crosscountry is so special. Told them that this was not the my playing levelfield (soooo much lower), but is so great to do! And complements to you and you horse. You can see, she's having fun to, and the way she moves her ears, that she has constant attention for you. Just great!

  • @JuhMoskita

    The white on the horses legs is called 'Eventing Grease' and it is put on just before the cross-country to give extra pretection to the horses legs if they rub a pole or hedge while jumping.

  • @Desidog02

    @Waaaghster Před 11 lety

    Great to watch, the only thing that scares me about this sport is these rock solid (looking) fences with these drops behind them. Watching the olypmics last year I had to wince every time a horse landed for their joints.
    Watching from the saddle is something different though, it is super smooth. Thanks for putting this up.
