  • You are leaning on your horses neck too much, sit up over fences. I keep a bit of space over myself and my horse. Also, you seem to be getting ahead of him where he's still on his haunches and you are just on his neck. be very careful about both. Check out my to see what I mean about the position. I know everyone has their own style, but I just feel you will be more successful if you sit up more.

  • Your an amazing rider :) honeslty

  • Yes you are

  • you are a good rider the only thing I really noticed is that you come down too far on your horses neck over jumps. Keep your body up a little more and it would look great.

  • ur good. u could tell some of the jumps you were a bit left behind and u need a bigger horse but ur good. and LaurenMahner chill.

  • just dont lean to much forward

  • Your not a bad rider!!!! You just have to work on some bad habits that's all! That doesn't mean your a bad rider!:)

  • Ich glaube, du hast das video nur gemacht, damit alle Leute sagen, dass du gut reiten kannst.. fishing of compliments.. pfui

  • ill tell u if u suscribe to qtcass16

  • Your music is horrible and get a trainer if u want to b better... Utube is not a good coach

  • Point heels in squat (but in the saddle) and stomach out and shoulders back to get the perfect jump!

  • fix the heels ... point the toes forward not out, other than that your a good rider

  • And some of your two points need fixing

  • I think your a good rider but you get to close to the end of the jump try going toward the middle

  • if you want people to say your a good rider, then have a video of you riding and not pictures. FYI

  • Stop fissing for cmpliments.

  • This is coming from a three day eventer's perspective. I think you are too far ahead of your horse, wait for him to jump up to you and dont throw your upper body. Your lower led is fairly sturdy, but try to keep it a little more underneath you. To me your release looks way too big for those smaller jumps, but other than that very solid!

  • your a good rider, but the thing is your leaning fowards abit too much....

    but i liked how you used your mane release cause not alot of pepole use it and it alouse your horse to strech there neck and jump the jump well.

  • no..but u have a bad taste in music..:P

  • you are a good rider keep it up!:):):)

  • at 0.36 i think your are leaning forward too much.

  • Your 2 point looks over dramatic to me.

  • Boahhh you are sooo arrogant :-O

    I've never seen a person writing like this, and that only wants to hear that she is a good rider!!! That is sooo stupid !!!

  • @nadjad3200 I don’t think she is acting like that on purpose at all! I ask for tips and advice on you tube all of the time. I actually almost made a video like this just to hear an opinion from someone outside my life. I don’t think you should jump into conclusions like that. I know it’s hard because I feel that way about a lot of face book statuses too.

  • Maybe have your horse go over the center of the jump a little more (:

  • well you might be leaning forward a little too much in two point but let me say, your a better rider than i am!

  • i just love when people do this stuff for attention... then when people say your a bad rider you reply and make excuses..

  • Your great! You're 2point is awesome I totally love your horse too! You're not too big for her and you guys look like a great team! :D

  • What is the song? And i think you look fine, you can't really judge your riding ability by pictyres. But if you're jumping around 3' and staying on, you're at least on the right path! XD

  • You're good, but wait for your horse, when you are getting into your two point, you are way to ahead of the horse. and it looks like you just throw the reins at your horse when you release, don't throw them so far up like at 0:33.

  • looks to me like you are fishing for a compliment 

  • toes in hands on withers and dont lean to much forward. Otherwise u get good distance with your horse and ur doing well

  • u neeed to chill out u r good but your leening against your ponys neck lay back a bit

  • You get a little low over jumps and some distances were a bit long but overall you look pretty good

  • You look like a good rider to me, except on some of the jumps you overfold a teeny bit :)

  • Lol I do the exact the same accept I don't jump as high as you! Lol it's ok...... You only notice you're doing it when you look at a picture! Lol great job!

  • your legs look good. i would just say to sit back and be in the middle of your saddle instead of laying on your horses neck. i think your getting to ahead. and sometimes riders get left behind. being in the middle is the best way to go. so if i were you, i would just try to not fold over as much. keep your shoulders back and chest OPEN. dont hide it on your ponys neck lol if you have to, slip rain is an option for when you get left behind. but i think you have potential and WE ALL can improve:)

  • Jumping isnt everything to tell if you were a bad rider or not we would need some videos of you walking and troting, and other basics ohhhhh also you don't hug your horses neck when your going over a jump, Ima barrel racer and i know that

  • jumping isnt everything about being a good rider you need some pics of u doin flat work and you do lie a bit on the horses neck when jmping but from the pictures u look really good !

  • your good just don't lie on your horses neck so much when you are jumping

  • ignore the rude comments and dislikes, you are an amazing rider and jumper!

    -Lauren

  • if you had actual videos of your riding, people could judge wether you were any good or not. but of course from the pictures, you look great:)

  • How can we say if you're a good rider or not when you just show us some pictures where you look good?? :P

  • You do lean way too far foward when jumping but you give the horse loads of rein and seem really kind with your hands:)

  • You just asked us wer u a bad ridder because u wanted people to look at your video and then u have very good pictures and then when people say "awwww ur a good rider i like u and all that shit " your just like yes i know so shut up !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @LaurenMahner No? this was at a certain point in my life where i questioned everything, asking for advice from my fellow youtubers isnt always a bad thing. and i would never think like that, im not that type of person.

  • @LaurenMahner dont be a bitch

  •  WTF you look amazing!

  • yup your so braggy wtf + ur leaning a bit to foward

  • As a horseback riding instructor my only comments would be, you lean too far forward on some of the jumps, your hands are not as far up as the could be in some of the jumps and you look a little off balance in one. Great postion if you're just starting but with a little tweaking would be excellent for shows.

  • My opinion: I think you are leaning forward a little to far, beautiful horse...either than that..pretty good..:)

  • Your amazing!!

  • when your jumping any less than 90cm, try not to over fold, it will unbalance you and the horse and isn't necessary as they don't need you to give that much with your hands; it swings your leg back and brings your hips too far forward, your not a bad rider, and remember the majority of people on youtube know nothing lol

  • i tink it would b easyer 2 tell if u had a video!

  • I agree with narniagirl32 you will be awsome!!!

  • Good.! You look like your gonna head your head on the horses neck when you 2-point. But really good(:

  • I think your a great rider! How long have you been riding for?

  • you look good!! only thing i see is in a few pics you are too close to the horse's neck but your pefect in others!

  • from what i can see in the pictures i think you are very good rider and you look fantastic on the pony x

  • haha bad idea asking what people think,you know what people are like on here and they can be harsh,and you kinda need a video to tell but you look very good! I'm in no position to crit! :))

  • Too far forward !

  • at 0:30, the middle picture, it looks like you over jumped the jump for your horse. I know this was made in 09 and you have changed since then but just sayin.

  • Your actually are pretty good but bring your leg back more while jumping in 2 point

  • i need to see a vidio

  • in 2 point push your shoulders back. other than that looks good

  • leaned forward way too much

  • you were ok

  • yyour okay,..... no offense. you basically lay on your horses neck. fix that and u will b amazing!:)

  • I would just bring your elbows up they were lower on some jumps than otherse but they shouldn't be below the neck

  • Im not an expert but u seemed to really flat on the horses neck (leaning far forward) at 0:35 but dont have to take my word for it, like i said im not an expert.

  • Just don't bend forward so much. Your 2-point isn't supposed to be so bent over. Other than that, you're pretty good :)

  • There are a few things you could improve on, but no one is perfect. You are definitely not a "bad" rider. :)

  • no ur amazing

  • omg your so gooodddd! you are so much better dan me!!!!

  • YOUR NOT BAD YOUR AMAZING :) AND IM NOT LIEING :)

  • you get in your jumping position too early,so you through your horse of ballance

  • as everyone else has said try and keep off his neck a bit more but other than that you look fine and your a brilliant rider and jumper

  • you need to fold in your hip and get off your horses neck. if i may suggest doing really small jumps using NO REINS to practice your 2point i no that this helped me A LOT other then that you look really good

  • Sit back a bit and dont come so far down with your chest, your not jumping 6 ft. jumps and if your horse pops a jump your going to get it right in the face. But other than that, looks good :)

  • A little bit to close to the edge of the jumps...and don't hunch over so much,that's one of my mistakes! Roll your shoulders back and LET THE HORSE COME UP TO YOU! DONT HUNCH HIS NECK JUST A SMALL TWOPOINT WORKS.

  • no u dnt! ive been jumping 4 like 7 1/2 months now, im jumping @ 2'6 and i still dnt have tht perfect fold/position yet. ur amazing girl!

  • Toooo clloossee to his neecck!!!

  • you look ok you need to get off the horses neck

  • ur good

  • u need to sit on the horse more and GET OFF HIS NECK he can not streach and pick up enough hight to get over the jump and look up and heels down if your jumping and your horse stumbels or brokes at the jump u will come off trust me i know, the lady that helps me if i need some pointers said the your heels are like your seat belt in horse riding... but other then that u look alright

  • u are fine amazing

  • try to not lay on the horses neck, pull yourself up and look forward other than that you look great

  • you look a little like a beginner .

  • Maybe put your shoulders back more, move yourself a little more toward the back of the saddle and in a few of the pictures, maybe don't make it look like your laying on the horse's neck. Although, that's all personal preference, your actually really good, all that's just for looks. C: Well done. -3

  • No ur a great rider and dont listen to people cause they probably dont know anything.. Dont doubt yourself you'll go far!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Just your body, let the horse come to you

  • change the song, and then maybe we can talk about how you should not outstretch your arms over the jumps, and how you shouldn't exaggerate as much on his neck in the 2 point position while jumping.

    :)

  • Try to keep your shoulders taller

  • Your just leaning to far over in your 2 point position.

  • Uhm, yeah!! As my friend says, sucks to suck.

  • @SkatesNSaddles well this was 2 years ago, ive changed, now... no need to be that harsh, a simple you need work wouldve done. (:

  • @jerichojumper you did ask people to say what they wanted and that you won't be afraid and won't take offense. If you want good criticism, ask your coach. Don't ask strangers.

  • @SkatesNSaddles umm,that was kinda harsh.. i watched this video and i don't think she's a bad rider..yeah she has a few mistakes here and there but she admitted she already knew that.. you don't even know her..

  • U r a good rider n I know I'm pretty late commenting but just don't round ur back in 2 point

  • keep ur shoulders back and dont lean so much on the horses neck. hope that helps :)

  • Deine Beine strecken sich vom Pferd weg und es ist schwer zu sagen wenn du nur fotos hochlädst

  • @TheFumusify ich stimme dir zu

  • Your two point is WAY to deep for the size of those jumps. It is hard to tell when you don't have any movies just pics. Plus, yur legs are pinching and your bracing with your seat.

  • Your two-point is a little exteme..i think if something were to happen and you had to stop yourself from falling off, you're going to be too low to stop yourself. And when you're jumping you need to extend your arms more. You're supposed to give the horse their head over a jump, obviously not to the point where you dont have control.

    Other than that you look ok...hard to tell with pictures..there are alot of aspects of riding that are more than just your form over a jump.

  • i think u two look awesome together, keep having fun

  • I hope that you are being honest about actually wanting to know if you are good and not fishing for compliments....

  • youre amazingg, better than me haha.

  • Honestly your pretty good And I'm noticing are those ponies???

  • Your an 'ok' rider. Not great but not horrible...

  • You're amazing :) <3

  • Well ur amazing a lot betterthanne

  • Well you are amazing much better than me

  • very nice your form is nice and in one of the jumps though your heel looks a bit out of place not much that judges would notice so nothing major and btw love your horse so cute my horse is a huge monster but i love him if you want i can post a few pics of me and him and you can tell us some stuff we need to fix i mean he is 2 so we have to work with his attitude but i could use the extra advice i have a huge show comming up

  • You look very good :) i do say! but i notice that in some of your photos mostly early ones in the video you lean, your probably just looking ahead but instead of trying to lead around your horse to see try to look though the poll. It will keep you straighter. Also your position over jumps has removed and you have great release, although sometimes a little to much realease. You also throw your body over the horses neck a little to far. Try not to "lay" on your horses neck :) great rider though!

  • your a great ridder

  • good but less 2 point

  • your're an awesome rider

  • Sorry accident flagged as inappropriate what happens after I've done that????

    I think ur great and it's not inappropriate at all

    SORRY!!!!?? :(

  • judgemyride(.)net

    they'll tell you for sure!

  • Your great, but try not to lay onn the horses neck when your in the 2 point. You should post some ground work (flat work) videos!

  • your realy good but 1 trhing you could try not to leen foward quite as far but the rest is amazing

  • yes your horrible

  • you are a really good rider and it would be great to be able to see some vids of you jumping and flating. one thing though in some of the pics it looks as if you are lying on the horses neck and the whole point of a two point position is to keep your weight off of the horse. but good riding :)

  • ur really good:) wish i culd have seen some flatwork vids though!

  • your a great rider but i thomk maybe u should sit up a little more like u lean foward too much buts its not th6at bad :))

    P.S. that arena is sooooo pretttyy!!!

  • You are a good rider, but you are leaning a bit too far forward for the jumps.

  • Your a good rider but over the jumps you lean forward a bit too much

  • you sometimes lean forward too much

  • u need work in order to become 'good'...

  • You lean forward a bit too much for the jumps but other than that you're a good rider! Everyone has their habits, mine is that I straighten up too quickly after a jump! :) xx

  • You're a good rider other than leaning to far forward over jumps. Otherwise, you're great =)

  • your amazing

  • good

  • you dont need to ask people whether your good or not :-) just trust yourself and your horse thats all the matters :-) it doesnt matter if you stuff up or not ;-) at least you've got the guts so when someones tell you you suck or to stop trying to them to get on a horse and do what we do :-) x

  • i wouldnt say ur a bad rider but sometimes u come out of the saddle a little much, other times u lean to far foward, insed of putting ur weight in ur heels u put it on the horse's neck, making it harder for the horse to jump, other then that u look great

  • The one thing that stuck out at me was your back. If you look at some professional riders, their back isn't hunched over like yours. Make an arch in your back, and look up! Other than that, it looks good (: Keep it up!

  • you lean way to far down, and dont stick your arms so much up your horses neck.

  • Are you that egotistic? 'omg YouTube am I a bad ridurrt

  • Don't lean so far on his neck and keep your heels down

  • open your body, heels down, two point, get off his neck, and do gymnastics to become more effective..

  • i think u r pretty good! just keep your upper body up a little more( i noticed u only lay your upper body some jumps, not every1 of them), get your heels down, and when cantering keep your seat soft but still

  • u r really bad at jumping! Just really bad!

  • @artmaster274 she is not youre really rreally bad at art dickhead

  • It looks like your laying on top of him and you need to go on your toes and crouch not lean

  • ok well u need to not lean forward that much your way to forward

  • oh i hate when ppl do it they are just looking for attention and for ppl to say ahh no your brill...not foolin anyone sweetheart

    

  • no way you r awesome

  • i need a video to judge

  • great job keep going on you are going to be awsome !

  • So i commented before but then i watched it again and only in a few pictures you stick your bottom out to far, but i also noticed your chest is on his neck, if you come up a little more, you will be awesome! (:

  • I think you're an awesome rider! I loove your release, and your leg.

    the only things i could critique are : in just a few pictures you need to pick yourself up off your horses neck a tad, but in others your upper body was phenomenal.

    the other thing is maybe shorten up your stirrups a hole or two, that'll help you pick yourself up out of the saddle a bit more, and you'll be able to drop your heals more. but all together you look great! good job! <3

  • I think you´re not a bad rider... your style is very good :)

  • you are realygood dont matter what peole say onley what u think xx

  • Leg position looks good in some photos, just try not to lean on your horses neck. a tip for you!: when trotting around the school/arena, practise your jumping position! it helps alot!!!

  • you lean to far forward sit up abit more and then ull have it. xx

  • 0:33 you were way to far foreword but you are good

  • U r ok. Put your upper body up more and you'll look fantastic

  • You stick your bottom out really far but other then that your really good!

  • Your leaning wayyy to forward, your basicly laying on your horses neck. This makes his/her job 100x harder.

  • what breed is the sorrel or chestnut with the star

  • Keep sitting up until the very last stride - on the picture where it says 'Daddy's Dollar' have a bit of a tighter contact so the horse/pony understands what you want. Never throw your hands forward just adjust them carefully so it looks neat :D Other than that really well done :D

  • leaning forward a bit much, and don't curve your back so much when your jumping (open your shoulders) but your pretty good:)!

  • you lean WAY too far forward but other than that you are pretty good :D

  • There are no bad riders. Just riders who have had bad teaching.

  • just try not to go too far forward however your GREAT

  • Your really not that bad but i cant tell cuz all you have it pictures lol!:P You look like a way better rider then i am though haha

  • du bist kein schlechter reiter!!! Du bist ein richtig schlechter reiter!!!

  • just keep your butt farther back into the saddle, dont lean on your horses neck and keep your legs at your girth(:

  • You look good, but you have to stop leaning on the horses neck and stay back farther in the saddle.

  • You need improvement. Lean less forward! but your good

  • you lean forward alot but it can be fixed i used to that that alot, but if you lean to forward you are balancing off the horses neck and thats not good. but all in all your pretty good
