What a classy costume! Nice and simple so you can still see the horse, but very obvious as to what it is. I have actually seen a Frisian dressed up like this before too!
I loved the costume! What level was this at? I am tempted to dress my horse up as well! Seriously, she looks good in pink, or purple! I loved your leg tape (if that's even what you call it), on your horse! He looked so good in that! You BOTH looked awesome and what music did you use? I've never heard it be used in dressage freestyles yet. (:
it's amazing for prelim/novice! i love both your outfits, very smart! i think you need to pick your hands up a little, i don't know if it's my bad eyes and screen but you seem to rest them a little, not necessarily on the withers but a little low.
i think it was beautifully ridden and creative :)
This is so adorable! My husband used to work as a groomsmen/exercise rider for a dressage farm, and he only just now told me about how people use different music and costumes to spice up the competitions. Fantastic work!
the costume is cute. anyone who says otherwise is just a jerk. and you rode well too. i did have to stop watching though because the clicking from zooming in and out was so annoying.
But yes, the clicking on the camera is a pain in the butt haha, I cheat and put it on mute and play the mp3 version of my music over the top so I don't have to listen to the clicking hahaha
@papillonluver1 as I explained to velsmom, the point of this class was to dress up as well as create your test. This costume was well suited to the theme and we got a great response from the costume judge. :)
I had to quit watching... Love dressage, especially freestyle, but the shirtfront/bowtie?!?! Absurd!!! Poor horse should look like the beautiful, proud, majestic horse that he is, not some covered up by some trashy costume.
@velsmom hi velsmom, the point of this freestyle class was to dress up, as well as create your test. My amazing mum put a huge amount of work into that costume and I'd appreciate it if you kept your comments to yourself if you're only going to rip my Mum's great work to pieces.
i think i was in your class too omg mine sucked i couldnt hear the music and they started it wen i was at the judges and then wen i was on my way to p and then i was late for the hole thing
I was riding Aristo Barraz. In terms of scores we didn't do well, about 60%, but I'd only had him 2 1/2 months, and he was a showjumper with no dressage, so for us we did really well.
haha! we don't have a favorite blood line but i love El capitan arabian studs in californian. my mom and i had a bey shah son but we gave him away because my mom was afraid she was going to get hurt. Because he was very hard to handle ( that's why he was just given to us).
Hahaha I can see Mocha here doesn't like to go all out with the stretching in the free walk does he? That is EXACTLY like Piper!
Hmmm, in the US, this test would probably be 1st level. Only we are not allowed to post the trot. Other then that though, nearly identical.
Well here goes the tip: perhaps keep him a bit more forward in the trot and your hands more together. Think about pushing him into the contact. But other then that, lovely test! 74%!! Woww, wish I got scores like that!
My reaction:
Is that horse wearing a tuxedo?
I think that horse is wearing a tuxedo.
Holy shit that horse is wearing a tuxedo! :D
