    I appreciate that you don't edit out your mistakes. Makes me feel like you're a little more human (I'm still not entirely convinced, the way you ride so nicely).

    I'm always struggleing with the distance. When I watch your videos it seems so obvious but when I sit back in the saddle it's become hard again. I don't know if I'll ever gonna learn it... Sometimes I feel it and than it works and sometimes not. But anyway thank you for your videos I love them.

    Hi Dom and Jimmie, I know it isn't that exciting, but I'd love to see a video on lunging. It feels so unnatural to me. I feel like I have to concentrate on so many things all at the same time that the next thing you know, I've pushed my shoulder towards the horse and he stops dead in his tracks. If anyone is going to have some great tips on technique, it's going to be you two. Thanks!!

    I never learned how to count the strides BEFORE getting to the jumps.. I've always learned to count it when I'm in the middle of a line. How do you know when to start counting before you jump the jump?

    • @rebecca11391
      @rebecca11391 Před 10 lety

      Just do what he said, start counting when you're 3 strides away.

  • @annaelizabeth911

    You. Guys. Are. So. So. Wonderful. I swear these videos just get better and better. And like somebody already said, I think it's great that you don't get rid of the clips where everything may not work out perfectly, because let's be honest, it happens!

  • @MyJumper21
    @MyJumper21 Před 11 lety +1

    What you could try doing is putting a pole a stride before the jump, this gets the horse to pay attention to its back end and to really use it and strengthen those muscles

    I don't really count my strides, I just kinda know 'Okay get ready, Jump!'. I'm fine with that and on some horses it works perfectly but there are also some that feel so different! so I just gotta work with it. :P these are awesome videos though. I love the bloopers

    I like seeing you and your horse mess up, and I love the fact that you don't edit it out of the video. Not because I dislike you, but because it makes me feel better to know that even the best riders make mistakes :).

    I'm curious how that outdoor arena fairs when met with a heavy rain shower. It looks like a hurricane would turn it into an underwater jumping ring, but I'm sure that when it was designed they accounted for it somehow and incorporated a drainage system...? My old facility used to be a nightmare--every time it rained we had to trench it to drain the water, but it presented us an opportunity to challenge our balance and our ability to ride difficult terrain I guess. #alwaysfindthebrightside

    I just started to jump 3 months ago and my trainer said that my jumping position isn't good can u help?

    • @CunningFoxxyKitten
      @CunningFoxxyKitten Před 10 lety +3

      Your instructor should be helping you to improve your position. Jumping takes time and a lot of patience. If your instructor is just telling you to jump the fence and isn't helping to teach you how to prepare, jump and recover correctly...then I'd say you need a new instructor. I'd also recommend their Season 2: Episode 1 video which will give you some tips.

    • @madyarndt9378
      @madyarndt9378 Před 4 lety

      I don’t know what your jump position looks like but what I struggled with was being on my horses neck. This means not sitting up and looking straight forward before the jump and leaning forward before the jump, also leaning to much forward for a small jump, I was leaning forward like I was doing a bigger jump. Not leaning forward before a jump and keeping your shoulders up if the horse leaps you will be more stable, and if he refuses you will be less likely to fall off. Hope this helped

      E.L. Valentina I can't remember but I'm pretty sure 12 feet, it was 5 strides so about 15 big human steps

    • @jemclose754

  • @ViioletSummer
    @ViioletSummer Před 11 lety

    Why don't you guys release at all when you jump? it would look a lot more graceful if you released with your hands over the bigger jumps and would be easier on your horses mouth.

    • @iamjessica1656
      @iamjessica1656 Před 7 lety

      ViioletSummer the release that he had was appropriate for the height of the jump

  • @rebecca11391
    @rebecca11391 Před 10 lety +15

    Honestly, kind of feel like up to a certain point you can't teach people to find a good distance, it's something you have to get a feel of for yourself. If you've been riding for a long time and you can't find good distances most of the time, you're just not that good riding lol

    • @xKeepYourHeartStrong
      @xKeepYourHeartStrong Před 10 lety +7

      I don't think it really has anything to do with being a good rider. Some people just can't see a good distance, even if they've been riding for a while.

    • @rebecca11391
      @rebecca11391 Před 10 lety

      TheWrongLead Well, if you can't find a good distance, you're not very good at jumping since that's like the most important part of jumping lol

    • @xKeepYourHeartStrong
      @xKeepYourHeartStrong Před 10 lety +4

      Poniezand Pokemonz If you can't see a distance, than the only think you're necessarily bad at is seeing a distance. You could still be really good at every other aspect of jumping though.

    • @rebecca11391
      @rebecca11391 Před 10 lety

      TheWrongLead Yeah but seeing a distance is pretty much the most important part in jumping, you'll never do well at horse shows if you screw up every distance or even a few of them... & the only way you'll do well in jumpers like that is if you have a horse that saves you all the time.

    • @megancaswell7214
      @megancaswell7214 Před 10 lety +4
