[jennykarlsson94]

[synnemoberg97]

[Synna89]

Den tunga på 4.15 ser ikke spess digg ut :(..

[Synna89]

Wish we had this show in Norway as well :)!

[Frajdsson]

Does someone have or know the song in the beginning?! (:

[drusla152]

@frkxMee thats what i was thinking of too ;) but i am not sure. He looks like that doesn't he? ;)

[SleepyZheep]

Seriously, I can't find it. Could some one give me a clue how to find 'Highland Riders'????????

[isiriding]

@SleepyZheep Hi SeepyZheep, Highland Riders is from Gabriel Kent from the CD The magic Five. You can download it for example from the Homepage of Vindholar. If you like the song Highland Riders you will love The Magic Five.

Yours Isiriding

[iSilversaku]

Why are people so obsessed with our horses?

Haha verð að viðukenna að við erum með flottustu hestana sko ! :D

[SangosEvilTwin]

@iSilversaku because our horses don't tolt XD Or come in all the amazing colours yours do (at least I've never seen any other horse come in a silver dapple colour)

and who can hate a horse with roots in Viking lifestyle?

[drusla152]

They are AMAZING.

Don't know what else to say :)

[sunrisetarget]

...ein Himmelreich für ein Isländer Pferd!Wir lieben sie so sehr!!!!TAKE IT ISI :-))

[Snotri]

does anybody know the english name of that song "Á Sprengisandi"????

[Bleikja]

@Snotri: Highland Riders

[Synna89]

Oooh, I wish we had this show in Norway too, I'd SO go :D!

[SpeluEmpathy]

it's hard for an Icelandic horse to be ridden in a circle.. :/

[SpeluEmpathy]

and what the heck is on those horses hooves in the end?! :o

[Synna89]

That is just sparks.. Like those sticks you can have on newyears eve, totally harmless.

[Synna89]

That depends on how flexible the horse is! And it's GOOD for them to be ridden in a circle and being flexible, so don't write a sad face on it.

[SpeluEmpathy]

uhm, i wouldn't be that sure.. it's difficult

[Synna89]

And you have this information from? Sounds like pure speculations.. Even the hobbyriders in my stable are able to ride their horses in a circle! And it's a good thing for them to be flexible.

[SpeluEmpathy]

@Synna89 I'll just say that none of us is wrong, we both have right

[Synna89]

@SpeluEmphaty:

Well, if that was true, I'd be happy to say so ;).. But that's impossible as our opinions are opposites. It can't be both good and bad for them. And since every expert and riding teacher I've ever meant suggests and recommend flexibility exercises, I'm gonna go with: It's GOOD for them ;)!

[annelihi]

GREEN DAY!!!!!!!!!!!! at the end!!!!

[icehorses]

The horses are all fighting the bit, head tossing, jaw twisting.  Is anyone doing anything about this style of riding and ignoring the horse?

[nanakla]

Not all of them were, and the riding style does get better.

In tölt however, the horses need a higher headset to a degree.

[Nickis68]

Where can I get the music?

[Michellewikholm]

I agree with you, It was amazing !

[Frajdsson]

like the music

[Dilizi]

I know one of the horses in this video :D

[AmandaFjordell]
