ok i just relized why post and reply and get all up othrer peoples buisness when ur not gonna change anything by posting a stupid comment forget most of you people im ashamed i even replyed to any of you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It s not easy at all it only looks easy cuz of the skill and intense training and practice us equestrians posses and go through and the special bond most if us have with our horses it's the deadliest sport known to man we dnt hear of deaths coursed by it cuz there's just so many so before u say it's easy think bout how many riders have been killed or fatally injured from either falling off, being kicked or trampled half to death
no, i know riding really isnt easy, i know, but the first inute and a half atleast, is just horses and riders making mistakes, thats not what makes it hard, its hard because you have to have skill.. anyone makes mistakes, in any sport...just saying:)
@roo4lyfe true but in horse riding. one mistake can cost you your life. the abilty to walk or see or you could end up a vegtable. and thats possible even in the very begining
@Mshorserider18 NO IT IS JUST THE SAME I RIDE BOTH AND WELL THE ONLY THING DIFFARENT IS THE RIDING STRUCTURE ITS SAFER BUT NOT EASIER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this doesnt proove that english riding is hard. western riding is hard. english is easy. and this is just a video of jumping fails. things like this wouldnt happen to the same person everyday.
I've been riding for 6 years. At my 6th lesson I fell off a pony and decided that I don't like falling off. Now every time the horse I ride refuse, buck, rear, etc I always manage to stay on. I'm not saying I'm an accomplished rider I'm still learning. If you come after me with negative remarks I'm ready. But don't start harassing anybody or criticizing cuz you were once like that too you know.
yes, i agree, horse riding is NOT as easy as people generally think, yes, it IS a sport, but the way you put this video together makes horses look dangerous and out of control, giving well trained and tame horses a bad name (..loco!!)
Obviously a lot of people have already voiced their disagreements with @lilhotpinkg so I'm not gonna add to them. I'm just gonna agree with everyone who disagrees with @lilhotpinkg
umm... wats ur problem?! i have been riding since i was 4 and I'm 12 now and horseback s not easy! i c way u mean but it is only easy if ur on a push-button-pony! I'm not the best rider in the world and u rn't either! i don't c any of ur videos with u jumping 4or up feet! or racing! hb is very challenging! (I'm not trying 2 b mean or anything)
@airpaint17 ive been riding for a a little over a year and in the beginning i was used to push butten ponies but then i got an a REAL horse so to speak, i am 13. i got bucked and thrown into a wall within minutes push butten ponies are NOTHING like a REal horse
also someone said you teach a horse that your the boss. horseriding is a partnership not a takeover and breaking of their will and spirit. Hope ya'll learned something. this is all i could think of off the top of my head. all done!
I am one of the best riders at my barn because i have a greenish horse and rode lesson horses that made me learn and work. people ask me to ride problem horses because they know i can handle them and make them better.
It just made me angry to see people who think their all that when their not. continued...
also it is NOT easy to ride you are crazy and need to post videos. my horse is a rescue thourobred and he has his days. i am in my good to great rider catergory. a coupple weeks ago i was riding with my friends and i had no stirrups. the horses in the pasture next to us stampeded and our horses ran of bucking and galloping. I STILL HAD NO STIRRUPS. I stayed on and stoped him about 5 strides later and rode on all my friends dismounteed and walked up to the barn.
Also if a horse does something its almost always the riders fault. if the spook and you fall off you arent listening to your horse and need stronged legs.
Im 13 and ive ridden since i was seven i have fallen of multiple times, ive been kicked in the chest by a pony and still get back on. my rule of thumb is this:
wow! 3 whole months that incredible! :O just kidding.. ive been riding for eight years and i know im not the best rider in the world and not to me mean but maybe you should get bucked of your "green" horse so you'll realize you have a long way to go.
oh and LOVE the video by the was sorry for the arguing but some people get on my nerves when they think they know what the hell they are talking about when they DONT!!
Call me a bad rider, but the only time I really fell of a horse was going around a sharp turn trotting, without stirrups in an english saddle. Dumb right?
haha I love how in like all equine videos the people are falling off and going over the jump, I've been riding since I was 4 and have fallen like a million times and never fell that way :D
Oh, and these people in the video are PROFESSIONALS!! Things don't always go perfect, and it's not their fault that they fell. Well, not totally. But don't just think "I could do better" cuz, chanced are, you can't.
@lilhotpinkg Ya, you might be a good jumper/racer, but I would like to see you trot 25 miles in 1 day on one of your thoroughbreds! Bet you couldn't do it. Jumping, dressage, racing, and reining are not the only hard this in the horse world. Thumbs up for Competitive Trail Riding!!!
This is only the tip of riding essentials. Who knows, maybe your a child riding prodigy (doubt it)? But I think EVERYONE HERE WOULD LIKE TO SEE A VIDEO OF YOUR RIDING SKILLS! YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE! Sry for the shouting. I dont want an argument. Good Day&Hapy Trails
@Haflingerluv99 I don't know who you're posting this to or what is going on with all the other comments, but I read this one and laughed. :) I love how you ended it, lol.
@Haflingerluv99 OMG AL THEMPOINT I LIVE BY IN RIDING LOL! especially with the pinch with keg thing! My instructor said that if u pinch or grip with ur legs u wil end up on the floor lol
Wow. I just read all the comments to lilhotponkg, and, well, it looks like people disagree STRONGLY with what you said. And so do I. Yes, horseback riding can be easy, if you are not doing all the things that gets the horse in tune with you and allows you to do amazing things with the shift of your weight. Here's a few:
1) Gently squeeze your hand alternately to soften his mouth.
@Haflingerluv99 i WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOU RIDE A HORSE YOU PROBABLY WOULD FALL OFF IN SECONDS HORSE RIDING IS HARDER THAN YOU THINK JUST TRY GALLOPING FULL SPEED AROUND THREE SMALL BARRELS OR JUMPING A 6 FOOT JUMP OR GETTING ON A HORSE WHO IS NOT TRAINED OR BROKE WELL I AT 12 YEARS OLD HAD TO GET ON HORSES THAT BRONCO BUCKED AND FLIPPED WHILE GUIDING A GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO MOST OF THE TIME DID NOT KNOW WHAT THEY WERE DOING ON TRAIL YA ITS REALLY REALLY EASY COME ON PEOPLE GET A BRAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Haflingerluv99 ALSO HORSES ARE 1200 POUND ANIMALS WHO COULD WITH ONE MISSTEP KILL YOU AND THEY DONT EVEN SPEAK ARE LANGUAGE HOW IS THAT EASY COME ON YOU SURE ARE A STUPID PERSON TO NOT SEE THAT IT IS HARDER THAN U THINK I THINK YOU SHOULD STICK TO WELL BROKE MINNIE PONYS THERE THE BEST FOR DUMB DUMB'S
Wow i ride and i have fallin of about twice but i have only been riding for about 3 or 4 years and the first time i fell of it was on a road and it was in a puddle full of stone and the next day i had a huge brose on my thigh. The second time i fell of it was over the horses head and we where jumping, she put her head down after the last jump and i went over and landed hard on my right sholder and i nearly broke it said my doctor but i always got on after i fell... i really havnt been happier
I find it very interesting that so many people think riding a horse is just hard beacuse of falls, accidents, a horse spooking, ect.
When the real reason why riding a horse is hard is that it takes strength, coordination, courage, faith, passion, love, pacience, mind control, knowledge, heart, and time (SO much time)
That is the actual reason why riding a horse is hard (weither its english or western, dressage or barrel racing.) Just Saying.
@JaiShaee I totally agree but someone who doesn't ride probably wouldn't realise or appreciate how difficult it is to perform a dressage movement or get the striding correct up to a fence or making sure to slip the reins and give the horse it's head if you have a bad jump or even how catching a horse in a field can be difficult and other things like that so it's just easier to show them how things can go terribly wrong, no matter how good a rider you are.
LILHOTPINKPIG!!!!!!!GET YOUR NOSE OUT OF THE CLOUDS AND LISTEN TO YOUR SELF!iVE ridden a green horse, and i didnt go round saying, 'oohhhh today I handeled a green horse so get your finger from up ur arse and Ride a real horse!!!
hey LILHOTPINKG!! If you really rode HORSES and not those fake ones that you put a quarter in at walmart...you would know its NOT easy.....when i got my first horse i had only had about 4 lessons and he had only been ridden twice....and you know what?! i didnt have a saddle and i got up my courage and i had never ridden bareback and i went out there and rode him! IT was NOT easy and he was green.. no one give me crap about how i shouldnt have gotten a green horse because you dont know the story
Horse riding may SEEM easy to people who know how to do it, but if you stick a beginner on a horse and tell them to do the things that - after months or years or more of training - you can now do easily, they are most likely not going to be able to do it! Obviously it's not easy!
some ppl who have rode a horse a few times say: its easy and stuff but they didnt really RODE a horse the just sat on the horse a walked around...yes thats easy but if u ride/train a horse with temper its not that easy anymore. i mean i think footbal is easy to but i know if i really get into it and want to be a prof its not gonna be that easy!!!
Ok no offense MooseyyMouseyy but you shouldnt have posted this video. Only the riders that you have seen fall off of did something wrong or the horse had a bad day. Riding is easy. Only if you hang on and stay calm. Ive seen HUGE mistakes in the riders that fell off in this vid. Like pulling on the reins, or kicking to hard, or confusing the horse. Like I said. Riding is easy.
@416tayjay 1. why did you watch this in the first place? 2. if horse riding wasn't a sport, why can it make you sweat, make your body hurts and how come it is an OLYMPIC sport? 3. have you ever rode a horse like the riders in this video?
@YJMvdW when you get furthur you will learn the difference between "lesson-horses" that do whatever you want even if you don't give them the proper helps and professional horses. Professional riders train every day with their horses, they have got a bond between them and don't let the horses do all the work, they aren't machines! if you think it's so stupid and easy, I can't wait to see a video showing how you ride by only sitting and hanging on, cause that ain't riding.
oh and by the way, i dont care if you (416tayjay) are getting mad on me now, so don't bother commenting on me, this is how I feel and yes i felt the urge to share that with you. you're welcome.
@YJMvdW Yes I have. And Im 10. And I never fell off. Im not eing mean. Its easy to ride unless your under control of the horse. These people just flipped out and had no control
@416tayjay no, they had control, the horses just tripped and fell. The barrel racer was one that couldn't ride. he couldn't sit it. I'm 13 and im a barrel racer, and I know what I'm talking about.
@MeganMakeupForever what do you know about barrel racing?! I'm a barrel racer, iv won a world title. I'm at the top of the barrel racing world. I'm at the professional level. You do sit at the barrels. that guy couldn't ride a horse, let alone a barrel racing athlete.
@lilhotpinkg Well most of us have been riding for A LOT longer than you have. Don't worry, you'll have your day when you find out what horseback riding REALLY is.
dont think some people realise horses are unpredrictable no matter what they 'normally' behave like. each horse is different. personally ive been riding 8 years now, broken in 3 horses at 15years old.. and yes ive been lucky enough to have sensible youngsters but have also had scary moments as most riders will. horses that mess from time to time are fun, as is my welsh d 4year old... but after nearly being collapsed on after a youngster reared right over...im more careful!
U Can tell u havent rode allot or u havent rode at all............. U may think its "easy" but its not....... Dont say it is...... It may b for u because u ride horses that are very easy to ride but me & allot of other people have worked very hard to get where we are & u prob havent went through all that we have, & yes every horse is different but it only take a
couple min to get to know the horse when ur on there back. Im ridin a diff horse eve day & workin my thouroughbred, ive
@lilhotpinkg Just thought I should say that you're not a good rider after, 3 months at the time, it's not possible. People say you have to fall off seven times before you begin to feel like a proper rider. If you haven't it's just because you are clinging on to the reins. Making the horse feel uncomfortable. Yep youre a real horseman/woman! Not
I actually had to turn it off ! Scary Stuff... it may take some time for them horses to get thier confidence back! however I dont believe riding is difficult due to risk of accident. it is difficult because we are up from 6, turning out, feeding , grooming, excercising, developing programmes to bring the best from our horses.it is difficult as we devout ourselves to the sport. all day every day. but its cos we love it! we build skill that people who wtch us say it looks easy. thats why.
great vid love it i hate it when people say what you do is not a sport we risk our lives every time we hop on a horse and we love it and we wont stop we get back on and finish what we started :)
ive been riding ,y whole life i have my own horse an im telling you it is extremely hard my horse is able to jump 6 foot an hes 16 hands. i can tell u he bucked cause he was excited one day an his buck got me on his shoulders he ran around i fell an hit my head so hard i got a head ache I GOT RIGHT BACK ON (AFTER THEY LUNGED THE HELL OUTTA HIM) an i showed. i went to the emergency room bc i got a huge headache an it was worse i almost had a concussion Horse back ridding is hard an im not joking
+ it depends on your riding instructer if they even know anything.i have a 16.2 black thoroghbred mare just broke in and im telling you shes not easy work so i highly doubt that a 14 yr old who has been riding 3months could really work a green horse unless your letting it do what it wants which ruins a horse or unless you get private lessons every day...
look it is hard at the end of the day its to do with alot more than reins its balance legwork and feelin the horses footwork the horses in the video just have not been trained well enough and the riders just make a mistake at the rider not having the rite leg,rein length and rise when they are about to go over the jump.im 19 ive been riding all my life and i still dont think its easy!
to all you haters: riding is freakin hard!!! only last week i had t jump off a horse to avoid being knocked out by a tree.had i jumped a millisecond later i would have been killed or paralyzed.so next time you think about making a dumb comment,make sure you know what you're talking about!!!!!!
i like this vid. I mean these people (in the video) know how to ride and aren't just sitting in the saddle and still fall off, if they were just sitting there really bad things would happen
@lilhotpinkg Oh and btw, I'm clearly aware that you are 14, not 10. I'm guessing you don't understand the meaning of the comment; and that only means that you act even more like a little child than I first thought you did.
@lilhotpinkg Get your finger out your arse and your nose out the air, hope that's not how you ride as well! If you were busy out training racehorses all day, you would not be sat here right now spreading shit on the 'less fortunate ones who suck at handling/riding horses''s videos.
@lilhotpinkg ***won't we??? So get uploading!! Can't wait to see ur amazin techniques and skill :D ....but don't start all like ''i don't have a video camera'' or ''it's broke'' cos we know ur talking bulls**t if u do...
@lilhotpinkg I agree with the person below if you're so amazin then why aren't there any vids of you actually riding? Don't start blabberin til you've PROVED IT! O and another thing, alot of people I know have been riding a fair amount of time, but most horses are good and when one comes along that is just SLIGHTLY spookier, sillier etc they think it's a nightmare but to EXPERIENCED ppl its nothing compared 2 some horses out there,probs the case wit you.....but anyway we will see in ur vids won
@shrockoutloud Yes some of it IS how you train it. But horses DO have personalitys believe it or not and that is what makes them difficult or not difficult to ride.
@wearwolfsrule My horses HAVE acted out. Jeez, you people seem to think I'm saying that the horses I ride are "perfect". Well that is NOT what I am saying at all. I ride some pretty ridiculous horses who do not like to listen, but what I AM saying is that I can handle them and think it's pretty easy because I know HOW to handle them.
@lilhotpinkg Knowing how to handle them is easy enough. You're right. But simply handling them isn't riding them. If you actually rode your horse, and learned to ride it the RIGHT way, then you would see quickly enough that it's no easy task. Try doing 3rd level dressage. Try getting on a cross country course with a horse. You'll figure out that just handling them isn't enough. There's a difference between handling, and riding. I think you're just confused about that.
@shrockoutloud I jump AND race though. And I train. And size doesn't matter, haha. At the ranch there is a hugee draft horse that is easy to handle, and there is a small horse that does NOT like to listen. But there's also a small horse that loves to listen and my racer and other horses that are bigger that don't listen. It's not size, every horse has a personality. I've been getting lessons since October, but I've ridden since 5th grade.
@lilhotpinkg Well good for you but if your so good then why cant i see you in the grand prix? face it girl, all rubbish riders say things like that, all GOOD riders usually keep it to themselves. If are as good as you say you are then I would keep my little mouth shut and not talk like that
@shrockoutloud And I ride horses that buck and rear too, but it's a piece of cake if you really know what you're doing. Believe me darling, I've ridden some crazy horses. You juss' gotta show 'em who's boss and they'll do whatever the heck you want.
@1237horse Darling I don't have a "push button" horse, got that? She is an extremely high strung racer/jumper. I also ride other horses almost everyday I'm out there, none of them are "push button", believe me. You just have to be confident and know what you're doing, if you got that then you'd be as good as me too.
@lilhotpinkg OMG you are a self-obsessed vain fool! " then youd be as good as me too"? what kind of rubbish is that? dont say things like that, that is NOT the way to make friends
@lilhotpinkg WELL THEN DONT RIDE THEM IF YOU ARE GOING TO COMPLAIN!!!!! Also, lies, racehorses are hard but TOTALLY not the hardest. good for you, you don't ride a push button pony, I DONT GIVE A SHIT! no one else does either. i don't ride push button ponies, not many people do either, they are rather hard to find. but guess what, no one gives a shit about what i have to say and especially what you have to say <3 <3, remember, you don't phase me....
@lilhotpinkg ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS UR FUCKING STUPID YES TO ME RIDING A CRAZY ASS HORSE IS A PIECE OF CAKE CAUSE I HAVE BEEN FLIPPED ON AND BRONCO BUCKED OFF I HAVE BEEN KICKED IN SO MANY PPLACES I HAVE BEEN THROWN ABOUT 15 FEET IN THE AIR LANDED ON HARD GROUND AND TRAMPLED BY HORSES BUT YOU HAVE TO REALIZE NOT EVERYBODY CAN HANDLE A HORSE AS GOOD AS YOU CAN AND AGAIN U ARE STUPID IN SO MANY WAYS I WONT EVEN SAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@lilhotpinkg YA ALSO ABOUT THE WHOLE SHOW WHOS BOSS THING LET ME GUESS YOU BEAT THEM TELL THERE SCARED OF YOU SO THEY DO WHAT YOU WANT UR JUST A JERK!!!
@shrockoutloud My horse is a 2,000 racehorse actually. And my horse is 15.2 hands,size doesn't matter when it comes to being easy to ride or not. Racehorses are considered one of the most hard to handle horses when you're just riding them for fun, but I can handle them.
@lilhotpinkg I've found that people who talk like this are usually useless at riding, hence the need to talk like that, and I suppose you think you know everything? Well, that's a bit sad to be honest, and I feel deeply sorry for you, because you will never move forward, never improve, never learn anything more. Yes, maybe you are talented, but your belief that you’ve already arrived at the pinnacle of your game will keep you stuck right where you are. And I don't see you right at the top...!
@MooseyyMouseyy I don't "suppose I know everything". I'm just saying that I know how to handle horses so it's easy for me. I'm not saying I know everything, believe me I don't. But I have instinct and natural skill that help me handle the "hard to handle" horses.
@lilhotpinkg Actually complimenting YOURSELF and expecting to get compliments back? Believe me, that is not the way to win people over. and as for your "natural instinct and ability" you can go and throw that in the trash cos no ones gonna believe that maybe your little minion friends do but here in the real world, throw stuff down are necks all you like, dont expect to get sympathy from ME! Face it, lovey, if you cry, then tough. if you think this isnt fair then, lifes not fair anyway, eh!
@lilhotpinkg There is no such thing as natural skill. You have to work and practice to gain your skill, and for horse riding, it takes WAY longer than just 3 months.
I ride, and own a horse. I haven't experienced english, dressage, XC or jumping but honestly..it isn't majorly hard like some people try to make it. Sure, you get sore, you build muscle, you gain skills and if you have a well trained horse it makes it mediocre. It's for sure not easy! But with practice and everything..it's not super difficult. Just IMO.
@shrockoutloud Of course I've ridden before! I wouldn't say it's easy if I hadn't. I have fallen off a horse once, but that was my mistake. And I ride every weekend and I jump horses and I'm a jockey in training, honestly it IS easy.
@lilhotpinkg you just said you rode for 3 months...you ride every weekend....so you have ridden aprox....12 times? don't be saying its easy till you have a horse fall on ya bud
@shrockoutloud well. yes. i totally hate when people say its easy you jest get "carried around" by a horse. it makes me sooo sooo mad and annoyed.. -.-" but if your really in harmony with your horse itt wont be such a struggle.. :)
Uhh, you guys? Horse riding IS easy. I'm 14 years old, and I can handle green horses. You just gotta have the passion and the heart, if you don't, that's probly why you suck at riding or think it's hard. Oh and I've been riding less than 3 months.
@lilhotpinkg it's not hard after just three months. Different trainers go at different paces. I myself, didnt know how challenging it can be, till i found an olympic-level trainer. To have a 2 hour lesson with her, i found out how hard you have to work to understand the horse, teach it, and learn from it.
@lilhotpinkg umm sorry but if you hav only been riding for 3 months you shouldnt be handling green horses but im 15 and ive been riding all my life and yes riding can be hard it depends on the horse. and i am a good rider and it takes experience to handle green horses.
@mrmonopolyplz I have the natural skill, I can handle them. And I live with a trainer who is 25 and has been riding her whole life and she thinks it's easy too. I don't have nearly as much experience but I can handle them.
@lilhotpinkg haha sounds more like serious training than natural skill to me and if u think its easy than u probabley hav some push button pony with no character
@lilhotpinkg LOL natural skill? With horses? Face it, your dreaming mate, go back to your little friends who do beleive this rubbish but leave us real riders to actually RIDE and not pretend you can handle jumpy horse, they are just prob perfect horses but you kid yourself they are jumpy, anyway prove this "natural skill" id like to see some videos. and dont tell me you dont have a camera. if you can afford all these "jumpy" horses then you can afford a camera.
@lilhotpinkg So you sayin yuv never failed? Huh? Right? Am I reading correctly? As you can see in this video, even the top horse riders fall and fail sometimes! I do not believe all this, if it is true then I would like to see some videos please.
@mrmonopolyplz um the first time i ever rode i rode on a completely green horse thats how i was tought to ride not everybody gets high class training like you do!!! and i do agree it takes experience but the more you fall off the more you learn not to make the same mistake
@lilhotpinkg yahhhhhhh. Only an incompetent fool would say somthing like that. Learn to ride(i mean actually learn and not lie about it) and then you can tell us all if its easy or not. Doesnt everyone agree???
@lilhotpinkg you know what I'm riding for 8 years now and you think it's easy ! everyone falls now and a while so if you say things like that I don't think you have the passion and the heart you just wanna brag that you are a good rider well okay post some vids and then we will see. Oh yeah and noone sucks at horseriding everyone has to learn it I think you started as a rookie too okay ! And peoples I fall to just ignore people like her I bet she can't ride xx
@lilhotpinkg Ive been riding for 17 years and im only 19 and im a professional and i still dont think horseriding is easy. And people who are that cocky definantly have no idea what is coming.
@lilhotpinkg so you can do ALL of this..... shut up you stupid poy cluber and go back to your rich daddy while the rest of us REAL horses riders actualy ride
@ameliahorsegirl19 so you can ride horses over 110cms while there bucking, rearing (ect) and then go in to an arena and make them do a flying change and shoulder in.... i've been riding for 7 years and i know do that with a green horse and ride them properly to......also ... im self taught and i can do this so why dont you get off your lazy arse a learn how to ride
Um do you ride english...Do you jump yet? I don't think it is that hard. when i move up a level it can be hard but once you get used to it it is pretty easy..But we are saying that people who have only done trial or pony rides are annoying when they say riding a horse is easy...
@lilhotpinkg it doesnt matter how long youve been riding or how old you are because you probably have never felt the pain that you feel when you get run over or fall off. what ever you do must be really easy if you can say horse riding is easy.ive ridden for 11 years and i got on a 4 year old stud. and you may be good at riding but try riding a stallion thats want to kill you. then come back and say it was easy
@lilhotpinkg Well good for you you have beeen riding for less than three months then you will not be able to compete yet. You just wont be ready. And dont say it just comes naturally to you because even if it does, after three months, you wont even be ready for canter or ground pole so stuff that in your face
maybe you can ride a horse and you say it easy but HOW do you ride a horse? do you really train him or you just walk around? i thought jumping was easy too the first times i did it. . but when i started to get lessons and learned everything you have to do and think off it wasnt that easy anymore!
@lilhotpinkg Honey, pretty much anyone who has been riding around 3 months can HANDLE a green horse. I was helping to train a green horse, riding him, showing him and everything after only a couple months of riding. After a few more months, I was jumping him over x-rails. After about about two years of riding and not having ridden him for a while, I could jump 60cm verticles. And he was one of the most pig-headed and aggressive horses I have seen in a long time. I can assure you it was NOT easy.
@lilhotpinkg Nothing about riding is every easy ive been ridin WAY longer than you! i rodeo jump trail ride and i can handle green horses and train them as well, even if you do have the passion and heart its never gunna be easyy you odviously ont ride enough ever been thrown off? if you havent ever hit the ground then you havent been riding long enough to say anything about it!
@lilhotpinkg haha Well someone obviously doesn't know their stuff.
I suppose you've got a perfectly independent and deep seat, soft hands, and the ability to tune in with every single horse you ride. You probably never make any mistakes and I'm sure you'd be like a pro at jumping now, right? I mean, after 3 months I bet you know just about everything!
@lilhotpinkg Well you must not be doing it right then it should take years and years to be able to ride half decent i have been riding since i was 2 and now in 17 and im not perfect ... no one is every going to be perfect
@lilhotpinkg At times, when you're riding for fun and galloping through a feild, then nothing could be more fun and easy. although when youre riding an REALLY green horse through a course, training over a jump, or its plain old your first time on the green horse, yeah it is hard. and i mean it sincerely. ive been on for a year and a half and am jumping high, so i get the whole " 3 months" thing. i doubt though that youve been riding 3 months and you have a green horse. and i doubt your THAT good
@WoodedWonders12 I've yet to see that girl whom you were respong to's post (not trying to sound snobby, I just can't word it any other way lol), but after three months getting a green horse isn't that uncommon. I only rode English for about two months before taking on a green horse as my project. Though it was a huge mistake, as I'm not allowed to even do anything with her -.-
So yeah, advice to new riders, don't go for greenies.
Uhh, you guys? Horse riding IS easy. I'm 14 years old, and I can handle green horses. You just gotta have the passion and the heart, if you don't, that's probly why you suck at riding or think it's hard.
@lilhotpinkg riding horses is nowhere near easy. i've been riding for 9 years. i've been trained in plenty of different diciplinces & guess what NONE of them are easy. i can handle a green horse too. most good riders can. but just cuz we fall off sometimes doesn't mean that we suck at it. things happen & we know what our mistakes are. & falling off does make you a better rider. & seriously if you are such an amazing rider where are your videos?! hmmm. so just shut up & get over yourself(:
@lilhotpinkg No it's not! You are a retard. In what planet is it easy? Not this one for sure. I have 3 hard to handle horses and I know how to handle each of them and I don't suck at riding, thank you. That would be why every equitation class I've entered I've won and at a horse trials I won 2nd out of 27 people and there was some hard competition that day. Horseback is hard whether you think so or not.
@lilhotpinkg I've been riding for 2 or 3 years now. You have no clue what you're talking about. If you have ever ridden a horse and worked hard at something, it's NOT EASY. Horse riding is anything BUT easy, really!!
@lilhotpinkg The reason we keep riding even when times are tough is because of our passion. We don't ride because we think it's "easy" we know its hard. Oh, and by "we" i mean everyone who actually rides and knows it for what it is. Our crazy difficult tragic wonderful painful love riding life.
@lilhotpinkg anyone can ride a horse but if you want to stay on you better have more than just passion and heart! RIDING IS NOT EASY! try controlling a 1000 pound animal with a mind of its own and if you have then you should understand why it isn't easy....
@lilhotpinkg I'm 13 and I can handle green horses. I was also on one by the time I was sitting up. It's not easy, and if you think it is then there might be something partially wrong with your brain. Believe me, staying on one that's going through a bucking tantrum and just thinking "Not again!" shows pure bravery. It's even harder just to encourage the forward movement in young ones instead of punishing them for bucking and rearing.
URGHH!!! my cousin is the family favourite now because he's becoming a football champion, like being offered by all the biggest clubs such as liverpool, spus etc.
Pffttt
haha i'd like to see him TRY to do horseriding ! no where NEAR as easy as kicking a ball about !!
ok i just relized why post and reply and get all up othrer peoples buisness when ur not gonna change anything by posting a stupid comment forget most of you people im ashamed i even replyed to any of you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It s not easy at all it only looks easy cuz of the skill and intense training and practice us equestrians posses and go through and the special bond most if us have with our horses it's the deadliest sport known to man we dnt hear of deaths coursed by it cuz there's just so many so before u say it's easy think bout how many riders have been killed or fatally injured from either falling off, being kicked or trampled half to death
horselover3476 1 week ago
no, i know riding really isnt easy, i know, but the first inute and a half atleast, is just horses and riders making mistakes, thats not what makes it hard, its hard because you have to have skill.. anyone makes mistakes, in any sport...just saying:)

I've been riding for 6 years. At my 6th lesson I fell off a pony and decided that I don't like falling off. Now every time the horse I ride refuse, buck, rear, etc I always manage to stay on. I'm not saying I'm an accomplished rider I'm still learning. If you come after me with negative remarks I'm ready. But don't start harassing anybody or criticizing cuz you were once like that too you know.

I STILL HAD NO STIRRUPS. I stayed on and stoped him about 5 strides later and rode on all my friends dismounteed and walked up to the barn.

Im 13 and ive ridden since i was seven i have fallen of multiple times, ive been kicked in the chest by a pony and still get back on. my rule of thumb is this:
Fall of 10 times you are a ok rider.
Fall of 50 times you are a good rider.
Fall of 100 times you are a great rider.
fall off 120 + times you are better than great.
K?

List of riding essentials continued
5) Keep your heels down
6) Don't pinch with your knees
7) Move with the horse
8) Look straight ahead and stay balanced
9) Stay in tune and watch his/her body position
10) Keep rein contact -DON'T PULL!
This is only the tip of riding essentials. Who knows, maybe your a child riding prodigy (doubt it)? But I think EVERYONE HERE WOULD LIKE TO SEE A VIDEO OF YOUR RIDING SKILLS! YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE! Sry for the shouting. I dont want an argument. Good Day&Hapy Trails

Yes, horseback riding can be easy, if you are not doing all the things that gets the horse in tune with you and allows you to do amazing things with the shift of your weight. Here's a few:
1) Gently squeeze your hand alternately to soften his mouth.
2) Shift you weight with every stride
3) Squeeze with your entire leg
4) Keep you back straight - good position

I find it very interesting that so many people think riding a horse is just hard beacuse of falls, accidents, a horse spooking, ect.
When the real reason why riding a horse is hard is that it takes strength, coordination, courage, faith, passion, love, pacience, mind control, knowledge, heart, and time (SO much time)
That is the actual reason why riding a horse is hard (weither its english or western, dressage or barrel racing.) Just Saying.
JaiShaee 3 months ago 3
@JaiShaee I totally agree but someone who doesn't ride probably wouldn't realise or appreciate how difficult it is to perform a dressage movement or get the striding correct up to a fence or making sure to slip the reins and give the horse it's head if you have a bad jump or even how catching a horse in a field can be difficult and other things like that so it's just easier to show them how things can go terribly wrong, no matter how good a rider you are.

Horse riding may SEEM easy to people who know how to do it, but if you stick a beginner on a horse and tell them to do the things that - after months or years or more of training - you can now do easily, they are most likely not going to be able to do it! Obviously it's not easy!

Ok no offense MooseyyMouseyy but you shouldnt have posted this video. Only the riders that you have seen fall off of did something wrong or the horse had a bad day. Riding is easy.

@YJMvdW when you get furthur you will learn the difference between "lesson-horses" that do whatever you want even if you don't give them the proper helps and professional horses. Professional riders train every day with their horses, they have got a bond between them and don't let the horses do all the work, they aren't machines! if you think it's so stupid and easy, I can't wait to see a video showing how you ride by only sitting and hanging on, cause that ain't riding.

I actually had to turn it off ! Scary Stuff... it may take some time for them horses to get thier confidence back! however I dont believe riding is difficult due to risk of accident. it is difficult because we are up from 6, turning out, feeding , grooming, excercising, developing programmes to bring the best from our horses.it is difficult as we devout ourselves to the sport. all day every day. but its cos we love it! we build skill that people who wtch us say it looks easy. thats why.

lilhotpinkg 10 months ago
@lilhotpinkg Knowing how to handle them is easy enough. You're right. But simply handling them isn't riding them. If you actually rode your horse, and learned to ride it the RIGHT way, then you would see quickly enough that it's no easy task. Try doing 3rd level dressage. Try getting on a cross country course with a horse. You'll figure out that just handling them isn't enough. There's a difference between handling, and riding. I think you're just confused about that.

@MooseyyMouseyy I don't "suppose I know everything". I'm just saying that I know how to handle horses so it's easy for me. I'm not saying I know everything, believe me I don't. But I have instinct and natural skill that help me handle the "hard to handle" horses.

@lilhotpinkg Actually complimenting YOURSELF and expecting to get compliments back? Believe me, that is not the way to win people over. and as for your "natural instinct and ability" you can go and throw that in the trash cos no ones gonna believe that maybe your little minion friends do but here in the real world, throw stuff down are necks all you like, dont expect to get sympathy from ME! Face it, lovey, if you cry, then tough. if you think this isnt fair then, lifes not fair anyway, eh!

@lilhotpinkg There is no such thing as natural skill. You have to work and practice to gain your skill, and for horse riding, it takes WAY longer than just 3 months.

I ride, and own a horse. I haven't experienced english, dressage, XC or jumping but honestly..it isn't majorly hard like some people try to make it. Sure, you get sore, you build muscle, you gain skills and if you have a well trained horse it makes it mediocre. It's for sure not easy! But with practice and everything..it's not super difficult. Just IMO.

@shrockoutloud Of course I've ridden before! I wouldn't say it's easy if I hadn't. I have fallen off a horse once, but that was my mistake. And I ride every weekend and I jump horses and I'm a jockey in training, honestly it IS easy.

Uhh, you guys? Horse riding IS easy. I'm 14 years old, and I can handle green horses. You just gotta have the passion and the heart, if you don't, that's probly why you suck at riding or think it's hard. Oh and I've been riding less than 3 months.
lilhotpinkg 1 year ago
@lilhotpinkg it's not hard after just three months. Different trainers go at different paces. I myself, didnt know how challenging it can be, till i found an olympic-level trainer. To have a 2 hour lesson with her, i found out how hard you have to work to understand the horse, teach it, and learn from it.

@lilhotpinkg umm sorry but if you hav only been riding for 3 months you shouldnt be handling green horses but im 15 and ive been riding all my life and yes riding can be hard it depends on the horse. and i am a good rider and it takes experience to handle green horses.

@mrmonopolyplz I have the natural skill, I can handle them. And I live with a trainer who is 25 and has been riding her whole life and she thinks it's easy too. I don't have nearly as much experience but I can handle them.

@lilhotpinkg LOL natural skill? With horses? Face it, your dreaming mate, go back to your little friends who do beleive this rubbish but leave us real riders to actually RIDE and not pretend you can handle jumpy horse, they are just prob perfect horses but you kid yourself they are jumpy, anyway prove this "natural skill" id like to see some videos. and dont tell me you dont have a camera. if you can afford all these "jumpy" horses then you can afford a camera.

@lilhotpinkg So you sayin yuv never failed? Huh? Right? Am I reading correctly? As you can see in this video, even the top horse riders fall and fail sometimes! I do not believe all this, if it is true then I would like to see some videos please.

@lilhotpinkg it doesnt matter how long youve been riding or how old you are because you probably have never felt the pain that you feel when you get run over or fall off. what ever you do must be really easy if you can say horse riding is easy.ive ridden for 11 years and i got on a 4 year old stud. and you may be good at riding but try riding a stallion thats want to kill you. then come back and say it was easy

@lilhotpinkg Well good for you you have beeen riding for less than three months then you will not be able to compete yet. You just wont be ready. And dont say it just comes naturally to you because even if it does, after three months, you wont even be ready for canter or ground pole so stuff that in your face

@lilhotpinkg
maybe you can ride a horse and you say it easy but HOW do you ride a horse? do you really train him or you just walk around? i thought jumping was easy too the first times i did it. . but when i started to get lessons and learned everything you have to do and think off it wasnt that easy anymore!
LOL12HORSELOVER12LOL 5 months ago
@lilhotpinkg Honey, pretty much anyone who has been riding around 3 months can HANDLE a green horse. I was helping to train a green horse, riding him, showing him and everything after only a couple months of riding. After a few more months, I was jumping him over x-rails. After about about two years of riding and not having ridden him for a while, I could jump 60cm verticles. And he was one of the most pig-headed and aggressive horses I have seen in a long time. I can assure you it was NOT easy.

I suppose you've got a perfectly independent and deep seat, soft hands, and the ability to tune in with every single horse you ride. You probably never make any mistakes and I'm sure you'd be like a pro at jumping now, right? I mean, after 3 months I bet you know just about everything!

@lilhotpinkg At times, when you're riding for fun and galloping through a feild, then nothing could be more fun and easy. although when youre riding an REALLY green horse through a course, training over a jump, or its plain old your first time on the green horse, yeah it is hard. and i mean it sincerely. ive been on for a year and a half and am jumping high, so i get the whole " 3 months" thing. i doubt though that youve been riding 3 months and you have a green horse. and i doubt your THAT good
WoodedWonders12 2 months ago
@WoodedWonders12 I've yet to see that girl whom you were respong to's post (not trying to sound snobby, I just can't word it any other way lol), but after three months getting a green horse isn't that uncommon. I only rode English for about two months before taking on a green horse as my project. Though it was a huge mistake, as I'm not allowed to even do anything with her -.-
So yeah, advice to new riders, don't go for greenies.

@lilhotpinkg riding horses is nowhere near easy. i've been riding for 9 years. i've been trained in plenty of different diciplinces & guess what NONE of them are easy. i can handle a green horse too. most good riders can. but just cuz we fall off sometimes doesn't mean that we suck at it. things happen & we know what our mistakes are. & falling off does make you a better rider. & seriously if you are such an amazing rider where are your videos?! hmmm. so just shut up & get over yourself(:

@lilhotpinkg No it's not! You are a retard. In what planet is it easy? Not this one for sure. I have 3 hard to handle horses and I know how to handle each of them and I don't suck at riding, thank you. That would be why every equitation class I've entered I've won and at a horse trials I won 2nd out of 27 people and there was some hard competition that day. Horseback is hard whether you think so or not.

@lilhotpinkg anyone can ride a horse but if you want to stay on you better have more than just passion and heart! RIDING IS NOT EASY! try controlling a 1000 pound animal with a mind of its own and if you have then you should understand why it isn't easy....

@lilhotpinkg I'm 13 and I can handle green horses. I was also on one by the time I was sitting up. It's not easy, and if you think it is then there might be something partially wrong with your brain. Believe me, staying on one that's going through a bucking tantrum and just thinking "Not again!" shows pure bravery. It's even harder just to encourage the forward movement in young ones instead of punishing them for bucking and rearing.

or
'the horse does all the work'
URGHH!!! my cousin is the family favourite now because he's becoming a football champion, like being offered by all the biggest clubs such as liverpool, spus etc.
