[sexicaramel4115]

[countryhick1994]

Then you should watch the Ehcapa Bareback Riders.

[battousaiblade]

that horse is the best horse in the world

imagine riding that horse bridleless in the ocean!!

[Appaloosalicious1]

@battousaiblade o.o heaven you mean? lol

[battousaiblade]

@Appaloosalicious1 no on the ocean. like the movie "the black stallion!" thats how she first got into riding like me!

[Appaloosalicious1]

@battousaiblade o.O no I was saying riding on the beach would be like heaven..... unless you were avoiding that knowledge to prove a point then nvm cool.

[battousaiblade]

@Appaloosalicious1 yeah riding on the beach is heaven

[sunnylovertje]

[countrygirl9519]

thats amazing someday im gonna do that with my horse :)

[TheEllishalauren]

some QH are so barrel like, makes them look chubby, and completely on the forehand.

[mooneypadfootprongs]

Western Dressage at its best :]

[jerryiguanaman]

@mooneypadfootprongs The proper name is "western Plesure" not "western dressage"

[FrancesaFoster]

@jerryiguanaman Um no it isnt i am a pro and i train kids i know what whats and its western dressage

[jerryiguanaman]

@FrancesaFoster i guess the only thing you dont know how to do is spell...just kidding i respect anyone who teaches kids about the equestrian life style and tradition

[FrancesaFoster]

@jerryiguanaman Part of my family tries to be horses whispers but me and my uncle can do it and thank you

[mooneypadfootprongs]

@jerryiguanaman Thanks, but I do know what "Western Pleasure" "Dressage" "English" "Jumping" etc as I have been exposed to it all and have done many, shown many. But many English riders and western riders alike who have respect for the art of both reining and dressage are not affraig to call reining "Western Dressage" as in a sense that is what that is. I can call it as I please, especially since I know the difference between these different riding disciplines.

[facinelli3944]

that is truly amazing

[4evrhorses]

Even if it was wrong then u go get up on ur fat little horse with ur fat body and go around on a galloping horse with no bridle and hey since you seem so genius how about bareback also!......jerk

[gothicrocker123]

@4evrhorses Actually she does bareback and bridless reining also:)

[HorsesIC]

@4evrhorses . . . The hell? Damn idiot, how the hell can you talk? Look at your own videos. Me thinks little girl should get off of YouTube.

[amill1011]

my horse cant do a lead change, much less a lead change without bridle. awesommmee

[msprettygypsy]

amazing wow

[AdoptAPet44]

such a fat little horse

[kungfudoggie]

so cool

[atvchick09]

I have tons of respect for what she does she my idol, I look up to her. I do natural horsemanship and ride areback and bridless most of the time, and I think it gives you a unbreakable bond between you and your horse, everyone should experience a bond like this. Stacy you are amazing.

[SinanUnur]

@MangoRoX87 Thank you for the explanation.

[MangoRoX87]

Am I the only one that notices she is holding the flag wrong? XD

[SinanUnur]

@MangoRoX87 Could you elaborate on that please? How is she holding it wrong and how should it be held?

[MangoRoX87]

@SinanUnur You never, EVER let the flag dip in any direction. You keep the flag in a flag boot on your right side, not your left:) There should always be some form of an ornament on top of the flag (ball, eagle, arrow). Never back up with the flag (historically, this is a sign of retreat). And how she held in on her pivots.....ugh. Lol not being rude, I'm just on a drill team and get this drilled into my head every time we ride with American flags. It kind of becomes an OCD:)

[lovehorseslove1]

@MangoRoX87 wow u dumb ass she is profetional i think she would know more than your face and umm people that always listen to stuped danm instructers on how to ride u will go no were with riding trust me everyone i know that goes to lessons suck ass at riding and its the same with your drill team stacy never did have an instructer... and niether have i and im on my way to the top i want to be like her but better.. and u know all i need now is to get noticed witch is coming alone a bit

[MangoRoX87]

@lovehorseslove1 *cough cough* I'm not being a dumb ass. Obviously you are, since you can't even spell anything. "Stuped" Really? Come on. It's called respecting the flag. Hmm, looks like HUNDREDS of riders go to the AQHA, NRHA, etc. and guess what. ALL OF THEM HAVE LEARNED FROM SOMEONE AT SOME POINT. I could ride 10X better than you, and I don't even know you, but this is a fact that I can base off of your immature ignorance.

[MangoRoX87]

@lovehorseslove1 And by the way, you will not get ANY WHERE in the horse world with that attitude. Your on your way to the top? Oh, let me guess, you placed in a local show? Please.

[iloveCASH100]

@lovehorseslove1 dude grow up

[lovehorseslove1]

@iloveCASH100 haha wow your a dumb ass

[concretesailors]

@MangoRoX87 If INDEED you're on some sort of drill team, as you mentioned, then surely you would know that the "ornament on the top of the flag" pole is called a TRUCK and not an "ornament" as you refer to it here. Actually, it's properly called a "finial." A "truck" is the bolt that holds the finial to the pole, but has become commonly used to refer to the finial, especially in military communities.

[concretesailors]

@MangoRoX87 In demonstration one may retreat without bringing disgrace to the flag, you, or for which it is that you stand for, in this case Stacey is not "carrying the flag" she's "demonstrating the horse". And after watching this great video, all you saw was the flag, then you lost the true meaning of the video. To dip the flag, to lower it and quickly restore it to its place; - is done as a mark of respect.; I didn't see Stacey "Dip The Flag".

[EvilHatchling]

@SinanUnur your supposed to hold it on the right straight up. :)

[KrispKid]

@SinanUnur Correct me if I'm wrong but most riders have the flag straight up and down, putting the pole in their boot to help steady it. The pole on the flag may be too thick or heavy to do that in Stacy's case which is probably why she's holding it wrong. Or personal preference. I don't know, maybe she likes the sideways effect with the turns better?

[FrancesaFoster]

@KrispKid No it isnt she did that for looks you should watch some of her other no aamerican falg performances its for looks i do that to

[QuarterHorses007]

@MangoRoX87 How is she holding it wrong?

[badback64]

@MangoRoX87 ....why would you even say that? this is an epic preformance...i mean honestly!!!

[MangoRoX87]

@badback64 Yes, it's an amazing performance, but still, she isn't holding it wrong. Kinda sad when you do a tribute to America, and you severely disrespect the flag.

[badback64]

@MangoRoX87 ....ok no hard feelings....i was just moved by the performance...

[535echo]

@MangoRoX87 You are either a nitpicker or very patriotic. Let's hope for your sake and your friends and family's sake it's the later! :)

[WarriorCatHorseRock]

@MangoRoX87 You couldn't even do that bridleless , and your acusing HER , you jelous little shit?

[ShawtyKissnTell]

@MangoRoX87 Id like to see you try to ride a horse without reins, going fast and then to slow with a huge crowd. yeah dont diss just because u cant do it, that took a lot of work , she spent many hours with that horse. that dont happen over night.

[MangoRoX87]

@ShawtyKissnTell I'll do it, just not the bridless part. I am not stupid, I know my horse couldn't do that. She is 21 and years of hard team ropers hands from past owners have done their damage.. Infact, big crowds don't scare me. I've riden at the AQHA World and NRHA National Fut. shows the past two years with my drill team. I am not dissing. I completely respect her, I think she is an AMAZING rider. I was just making a point that she is disrespecting the flag.

[bigloverxD]

@MangoRoX87 it depends on when she turned

[MangoRoX87]

@bigloverxD Wait what?

[BarrelsandPoles]

@MangoRoX87 you do understand that shes on a horse, right?

[LorraineHatrix]

Did you win Stacy. XXXXX

[horsellover02]

I would die if i could ever ride that horse. I WOULD DIE!

[msdyrdek7]

i want a horse like Roxy. my horse wont listen even remotly close to this with a bridle lol

[HorseLuvaWWELuva]

@msdyrdek7 Stacy said she trained Roxy for like 5 years..

[msdyrdek7]

@HorseLuvaWWELuva true. that horse is amazingg.

[yoitstess]

Roxy is an amazing horse.

[Cloud9ryder]

I love the concept of bridleless riding and I have much respect for it but the horses always look naked lol

[HavvahartKL]

@Cloud9ryder when bridless is accompanied by a saddle, i agree...but bareback and bridless looks beautiful, i think.

[Cloud9ryder]

@HavvahartKL lol I agree, I didn't mean naked in any sort of negative faction, I was just meaning different in a silly way ^_^

[HavvahartKL]

@Cloud9ryder oh no, i understand completely what you meant! :P

[Cloud9ryder]

@HavvahartKL lol ok cool!  I just wanted to make it known that I meant no disrespect ^_^

[HavvahartKL]

@Cloud9ryder of course not! I appreciate it tho :)

[loveisallyouneedable]

@Cloud9ryder its because naked is how they used to be... wild and free

[Cheesekake343]

Roxy is so amazing!!! Most horses are terrified of flags, but she's so calm, licking her lips and head relaxed the whole time..

It does look a but funny with just the saddle tho hahaa

[2011107807]

who the hell is clapping in this vidd????? its so annoying it totally ruins the mood!!

[mariaandcenaforever]

@2011107807 She's doing a great job = lots of claps.

[kmsmileyful]

@2011107807 i kind of agree with you, the person clapping is really annoying and he does ruin the mood, and the song, because when he/she claps, you can't hear the song any more. I also kind of agree with mariaandcanaforever because it does show that the people like her (i know i do) and that what she is doing is appreciated.

[Hayleymariecurtis]

i know its so cool i wished i could still do that

[fabginger10]

I was there. she is amazing!!!
