badminton 2008 cross country

[Westerngirl96]

which breeds are usually used for cross country?

[Adrenaline552]

The cross country stage of the event is always so fun to watch watch when all goes well but when accidents happen all you can do is gasp and hope for the best.

what was the stuff the riding was rubbing on the horses legs at 0:06 ?

[2101lovelilly]

@Grizelda1227 i cant remember what it is called but it is some form of greese that is put on the horses legs to help then slide over, if they get into a tricky situation

[shostar95]

@Grizelda1227 yeah, like 2102lovelilly said, it's event grease they put it on the front of the horse's legs to help them get through brush fences, or if they take a knock, to try to help them get over the fence without losing too much time and momentum or injuring themselves

[beaulieuequitation]

C'est trop beaaau =)

Et notre Nico en a gagné un de badminton lol

[poniesarethebest]

woo i was there(:

[CorocottasGirl]

No problem. :)

[CorocottasGirl]

Its grease, so if a horse's leg gets caught on a jump, it slides, rather than getting stuck there.

[GoGallopGirl]

Ohh yeh ty (:

[GoGallopGirl]

i was wondering what is the stuff they put on the horses legs?

[chacharlene]

C'est pas de l'argile qu'il mette c'est de la vaseline pour que ça fasse glisser les membres sur l'obstacle si le cheval touche.

at 0:08 Whats that white stuff for?

[Pil0uz]

Désolée je parle mal Anglais. =X

C'est pour éviter que le cheval ne se fasse trop mal sur les obstacles naturels de cross.. j'ai perdu le nom, c'est pas de l'argile, c'est ?

[xbethluvselliex]

Its grease so if a horse goes on a jump it can just slide over it :Dxx

[gallop24]

ahhh that explains lol thanks :)

[Mezzleee]

If the horses have bruised legs, it helps them heal...

[eliza671]

so when they hit the jump their legs will slide instead of getting caught and injured

[myponiesrule123]

its grease, if a horse gets tappe dby a jump then it doesnt effect it as much....
