!ITS THE NEED FOR SPEED! Novice Worcester TeamChase 2018 (GoPro HeadCam)

29/04/2018
!!!There is swearing in this video!!!
worcestershire UK 🇬🇧
Well our round was a mess....Riders swapping horses, rider falls, navigational errors! But we got round and i felt amazing after!
It was Carries 11th birthday and she felt incredible and that she could have done it all again!

[@Equinologee]

Even though I've answered this so many times I'm going to post it here so I don't have to keep repeating myself. The lady that owned the big bay Infront of me didn't feel comfortable continuing on him so she swapped with the lady behind on the grey cob (Charlotte). This lady had never ridden the bay before so yes she was abit messy but I think most of us would be if last second you had to jump on a big hunter you'd never ridden before! Yes she came off, she isn't a bad rider, I fall off all the time 😅 After she fell, she wanted to ride her cob again. Another friend said she would hop on Fred (the big bay), this friend had ridden him out hunting before however she didn't have riding boots or a hat or was dressed to ride 🙈 she also had a broken finger! So she did amazing considering! I hope that all makes sense. If you have any OTHER questions feel free to ask here.

[@wilsonmy11yroschnauzerswl76]

Equinologee was the Horse right in front a gypsy cob???

[@Equinologee]

I think it was part cob 🤔 I don't ride with the lady often enough to know 😅

Equinologee I have question WHERE DO YOY LIVE PLS TAKE ME ;-; I’ve always wanted to do hunter and cross country, but where I live there is nowhere to do that, I’m lucky enough to do show jumping but I would love to do what you do! Just want to know where it is so maybe one day I can go!

[@mollysummerrock3916]

I fell off a horse once and when I was jumping the lowest fence possible my left foot came out of the sturrip and I grabbed his mane and it help over the second fence and then when his front hooves hit the ground then my left hand came off his mane and I feel off the right side and hit my shoulders and I had no protective vest so I was sore for at least three days and every Sunday when I am not riding I blame my self for it but otherwise but my gelding, draco just stoped, he didn’t move a muscle, he also had his head down in my face making sure I was fine and he thought he was the one who did wrong but he didn’t. He is a big sweetheart, he is also funny because he just he uses his head up and down like he is a big funny guy

[@lilredsj3744]

I fell of my 2nd ever horse because it got spooked and it took off round my grandad's racetrack he owns. It was so scary because he just went flying and I was only a beginner at riding he bucked me off at the corner. But I got back up. I couldn't ride him though because I was really badly injured. He had to get sold because he got scared because of the surroundings. Not his fault but we wanted to give him a home were he wouldn't be scared all of the time.

I miss the fantastic feeling of having a journey with a horse, being together with the animal and having a relationship with it. It's been years. I have a harsh job and not much time to visit horses, and even less time to form a relationship with one - but I miss it soooo much. Thank yopu for the video, it made me relive one of the most awesome moments in my life. Thank you!

[@nataliefoster8871]

maybe share a horse where you contribute to the horses care financially and you take turns to do stable chores, feeding etc, that way you can ride without having to deal with the full responsibility of their care which would make it much less time consuming, I hope you get to ride again, it's such a wonderful feeling to be one with your horse.

[@carolmartin2503]

Nice to appreciate your horse's efforts ~ personally I did a bit of teaching and would never encourage such a constant barrage of loud comments for the whole world to hear...... my precious horses were a part of me, and my life, and we understood each other without the continuous and distracting noise = we enjoyed each other quietly .... and didn't have the need to make breathless comments. Peaceful and loving quiet communication and togetherness is priceless. Yes an occasional "head up Bud... see the dog?." or "it's okay Son it's just the rest of the team" "Nice jump Babe" ! are welcome & gently said.

A couple things, first off I want to say it will take up a vast majority of any free time you have, but if it is what you want to do, don’t even worry about that bit, because you will want to practically live at the barn if you’re like me! Second, I’ve come across a book called Centered Riding by Sally Swift and it has made me completely rethink riding to a whole different level- definitely in a positive way! And if you don’t mind I’m just going to quote a bit from the Forward and then a bit from the Intro. “From the time we enter school we are told to study harder to get better grades, do more push-ups, run more laps to make the football team. “If you don’t try, you won’t succeed.” Then we climb onto a horse, a timid creature of flight, which knows and cares nothing of the work ethic, and we drive him crazy. The very act of trying brings tension and rigidity; the horse responds to our stress with his stress, and the downward spiral begins.” If you get the book all of this and so much more will make sense to you. I so STRONGLY recommend Centered Riding it’s not even funny. Just look it up on Amazon and buy it. Seriously. You NEED this book if you want to be an expert rider. “This book, on the whole, does not teach you how to ride.” So keep that in mind because you’ll probably need an instructor as well but this book is AMAZING! Infinity out of five star rating. Good luck, also I know that was a lot to read so sorry

So exhilarating guys, I jumped every fence with you. At 72 I am reduced to hacking my TB 3/4 times a week now, but this brought back some great memories... Thanks ❤️
