no stirrup lesson at the farm

[MakeupCupcake]

That horse is a little powerhouse :)

[musicfreeakk3]

gooooood job! its not easy takes a lot of practice to do this, took me a whole summer to be able to jump without stirrups

[canteringcuty109]

You can tell you aren't riding with stirrups because everyone's toe is a bit more turned out without stirrups. honestly though, if you hadn't written without stirrups at the top, I wouldn't have known! Wow! amazing :) you're such a good rider! soooooo jealous!

[EqRider01]

@canteringcuty109 Thank you.

[breyercrazy122]

@EqRider01

you are soooooooo goooood.....i did a lesson today without stirrups and i SUCK!!haha

[kivagirl03]

WOW! your amazing! what breed is your horse?

[kaymm93]

wow you're really good - I'm so bad at no stirrups XD haha

[EqRider01]

@kaymm93 Thank you. It just takes practicing through the pain. And making sure you're using the correct muscles groups in your legs.

[kaymm93]

@EqRider01 Yeah - we hadn't been doing it for a while, so yesterday my trainer decided to make us do it for a few rounds - I am definitely out of practice! I''m pretty sure I'm using the correct muscle groups... or at least I hope so? ;)

[EqRider01]

@kaymm93 Make sure you are NOT riding off your seat bones and the back of your thigh muscles. Most people make that mistake. You have to roll the weight forward towards the pommel of the saddle and post from the inner thigh muscles and out of your, excuse me, crotch, similar to doing a squat.

[AmberArabella]

sooo im kinda jealouss of your mad skillz....

[codyhorse231]

thats amazing! ur soooo good!

[eventer5]

I totally agreee. You look AMAZING and it is quite obvious that you dont have stirrups! wow i just think all the other people are jelous haha :)

[crazyweasels]

This is Amazing! I hope I can be that good a rider someday!

[englishcowgirl1]

wow great riding! great position you and your horse are quite a pair so in tuned!

[iluvsimon8]

**Clap Clap** Your so good :D so jealous of your Eq. I wanna eat your horse too. Hes adorable!!!!

[roxypoo100]

curious, do you work out too? other than just ride ride ride.? cause youre good at the no stirrup thing.

[CCHorseLover99]

You're an awesome rider!!! Who are these people haha they obviously have NO CLUE about eq. or riding to think this is "bad" ur following your horse perfectly and your leg idnt moving at all! awesome!! Go you :DD

[wuffell19942007]

nice job stupid people dont understand how much effort and skill it takes to jump without stirrups. Your eq was really nice for having no stirrups you can obviously tell that your a talented rider

[lkwhostalkinggx3]

Don't let them bother you! I think you have amazing eq w/o stirrups! :) ..And I think it's VERY obvious you don't have any stirrups. Dumb people!

[EqRider01]

thanks doll

[lkwhostalkinggx3]

no problem! :)

[EqRider01]

I don't know who the fuck you think you are but I do not know or give a shit. I have nothing to prove to you. I did do these entire courses without stirrups. You are obviously an ignorant idiot. Get a life because you have way to much time if you are analyzing and pausing videos. If you were a real rider you would be concerned with your own videos.

[LopsidedDream]

you have madd skills.

[gooseis]

Great job! Our trainer has us do this also, its a great way to get stronger legs.:)

[Rodntux]

UHHH YOU HAVE KILLER EQ...can i steal it pleaseeeeee

[A168HJ]

if you do share with me! lol jk

[Rodntux]

hahah deff

[mpk5981]

oh my legs ache for you.. glad to see this kind of dedication to the sport though :)

[EquiRider]

Good job! I've never jumped a whole course without stirrups, only 3-4 fences at a time, it's hard, really nice job!

[Chickeecheek]

Wow that was amazing!

Pff I haven't even jumped yet, but my first canter had to be stirrupless... cause I didn't have riding boots yet... lol.

Anyhoo, you guys look really good together. :)

[nobodysfool4191]

[PonyJumps88]

[liveandlauff11]

[heatherfroehlich]

[mytelonelee]

[hipersonhello]

[mytelonelee]

[CoverGirlxxx3]

[RemmyStella]

[eqrider19]

my trainer took the stirrups of my saddle for over 3weeks before my first 'A' show. i rode several different horses and jumped a 12hand pony w/out them. i also jumped 2'6" w/out my stirrups but thats nothing compared to this!!!

[nedlpnt]

OMG!!! Who is the trainer! Time for everyone to sign up! Good job, lovely horse!

[iconfusemyself4107]

You must be in paaain xD I've recently been riding for around 25 mins without stirrups before my trainer comes and its doing SO much good! I can't believe I ever hated it at all lol.

Awesome job :P
