How not to jump into water

[horselovergirl103]

yank on the reins much,Give him his head so he can land beter

[xXxChristinexXxX]

@horselovergirl103 she gave slipped the reins when he jumped funny...if you don't know the horse is gonna do that you obviously don't loosen the reins enough so they wont get jabbed in the mouth over the jump or else they get too flat over the jump...

[horselovergirl103]

@xXxChristinexXxX He started out fine,He went to far and she fell back,Taking the reins with her.Causing him to lift his head and land wrong.I dont jump like this but i did train my own horse to so i know that maybe if you put your hads higher on his neck he can jump better

[xXxChristinexXxX]

@horselovergirl103 no she stretched her elbows out when she felt him over-jump if she had her hands any further up her neck she would have to lean forward which could cause the horse to tip on the forehand and she could possibly fall off...i do cross country and you have to keep your body back over drop jumps because if the horse trips when they land you end up in the water. Cross country is not like showjumping you need a bit of self preservation.

[leannegr]

Well sat. Good job on loosening the reins too - horrible to see the horse jabbed in the mouth when a rider gets left behind.

[ebbnmaggs]

love it, it is only fair, we all have these days xx haha

[ebbnmaggs]

loveit, it is only fair, we all have these days xx haha

[HorseyRach1]

well seated and it was AMAZING lol my friend and the horse she was riding for a riding school did that only not as HIGH! :)

[mightymouth4ever]

well seated

[TrulyTruthful]

The horse was probably thinking. "OH SHIT, too much." When he jumped it.

[linneaaaw]

that looks scary o.o were the horse ok ?

[BarnSour4Prince]

You should teach him to drop in properly before you add a log/jump into to the mix. He could really get into some trouble jumping in and landing like that.

[rubbishrider861]

haha, he like.... "weee, jumping... WOAH WATER???!?!?!! YOU WANT ME TO GET WET??? ok but ur getting wet too!!!!" lol :) i bet my horse wouldnt do that... maybe next year :P

[HeatherHorseLover]

"ohh water! cannon ball! wait a minute..." haha nicley done :)

[bellabelliboo]

He's like "and we... flyyyyyyyy!!!" Good seat!! He's gorgeous, by the way! :)

[Headleyhunterhorse]

good job! (Horse) " OH MY GOD!!!! THERE IS WATER DOWN THERE!! WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME?????!!!"

[RubyBaabey]

that person sayying to cant buy your way into the olimpics is crap.

most of us get to the age were we buy our selves the horse :L

stupid person.

well sat- the best trainer in the world couldnt do anything about the way the horse jumped.

if the horse is being 'light footed' aka- a prat :L theres no much to do than to sit there.

well sat, not like me who when my youngster did it i went face first into the water LOL- FAIL.

well done (: xx

[TheCharlielil]

you sat that well!

[HorseLover771]

lol too cute! :)

[cassehbbz]

what an honest horse! well sat btw! i love that feeling of flying hahaha :) xxx

[leaahhhXD]

well sat i would have come off :D

[BriSwagger]

I don't understand how landing on your horses back that hard helps with their balance in any way.

[loopyloulou85]

@BriSwagger I really dont think she had an option but to land in that way, either that or fall on her face in the water. Sometimes things dont go to plan. Give the girl a break

[XxRisingVelocityxX]

lol i kinda giggles Horse was like "CANNOOOOONBALLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!, oof! wait! i coulda swore that was deeper!"

[Lucayy017]

Good job on slipping your reins :)

[NoJuiceForYouXLR8]

I would have peed on myself!!!! XD Good job staying on!!! :)

[Roidaaly123]

cool



[newforestponies]

Well sat and u Loosened the reins which is good so you didn't jerk on the horses mouth x

Well done, Nice horse

[TheRubyRose13]

hahaha my horse would do the same thing hahahahaha

[CoolHorses27]

haha 

[IdaOgKelly]

ohh! haha :O well sat! just a little overjump xD<3

[barnbrat1952]

i think he was planning on jumping over the water. do u have glue or something sticking your but to the saddle???

[gypsyjumper]

woot, nicely done! I love the slow motion, you can really see how you're moving with the motion of your horse *cheers*

[sailhobiecat]

Nicely sat!  Good riding!

[ILoveSkyForeva]

was this the first time he had done that ???

[Hoppy4eva]

nicw u stayed in the saddle ur a great rider and ur horse is so cute

[yorkheardt]

HAHAHA! naw! he thort it waz a big water ditch jump & thought he'd be rly clever & clear it...then realized halfway to the moon that he was meant to go THROUGH the water...rather than over it LOL XD. But snaps for the effort and excellent riding =)

[lottyrosie]

lol my horse does that its funny lol

[anniesmithapples]

LOL nice! You handled that very well. Last time my horse over jumped, he cleared the top of the standards and I slammed on his back... poor thing. I felt so bad. Hahaha cute pony(:

[kimberleyjane1992]

i think maybe he thought he was going to jump over the water :)

[sarahhorsemad]

lol, well sat! :0

I would have flung forward :L

xx

[DollarJumper]

well ridden.

[poolsproperty]

well sat ... that was huge jump .. i like u put up this ... cus things dont always go as expecting when riding ..

[St8luvr247]

my horse has done a couple of these! good riding, kept your seat the whole time! :)

[LivieBuckers]

Well done! You sat to that so well. And for all those ignorant people telling you you can't ride and apparently 'made your horses mouth sore'. You slipped your reins so i don't understand that. Like to see them do better tbh. Welldone! x

[scwxxo]

Wtf you ovbs dont now how to even ride!

Your like abusing you horse !

[LivieBuckers]

erm! Hardly, she stayed on and went with her horse so how does she not now? She did well! I'd like to see you post a video of that sort of riding and sit to it.

[scwxxo]

rake my asshole

people like yoou piss me off

[sanditom]

why??? she had a great seat and steady hands. if you new anything about horses you would know that she rode well

[equistera]

maybe people like that piss you off....but your kind of people that just rip on other people piss me off. what did they even do?

[TexasDandy]

Nice Seat!

Haha, i've had a similar experience except it caught me by surprise.

[HarriJ2008]

lol, well sat !!!

XxX

[BarrelsANDRails]

whoooooooooa ive done thattt! its scary! cept my horsejumped way before the log and then caught her back foot and we went down 2 meters into the water, it really hurt, we lost that eventing class :( but yikes it hurt but good jobbb!!!

[TheRachiie]

[HunterJumper311]

dude... ur like hella stupid... its a down bank into water.. u r ment 2 lean back and balance your horse... but then the horse jump like crazy huge.. wat wud u hav don.. leaned forward and fallen off into the water.. yes i think so.

[Opal1Havanehorse]

[ArabKate]

ouch, sore for u, but extremely sore on the horses mouth

[ridingamazing12]

haha u did  good i would have been sitting in the water will my horse would be standing there haha

good job :)

[elizabethsbiggestfan]

yea, the first time i tried to go down a bank into water my horse did the same thing, but i didnt have as good balance...and SPLOOSH! in the alligator and horse poop infested waters. it was gross. of course we didnt know there was a gator till the end of camp.

[matteroftime333]

that was amazing.well ridden.

[Cloudruby9]

well done well sat.

[liviandbarney]

Whooaa! well saat :) x

[em352]

oh OUCH that probly hurt for both of you in fact i know it hurt because my horse did that same thing yesturday exept she did it from a 5ft fall to the water she over jumped by like 3ft and then there was like 8ft between us and the water and it hurt really bad it broke 3 of my ribs =L

[missshannonwilson08]

wow that looked very scarey he is lucky he never fell:O that would be a sore one OUCH!!

[samanthasmith69]

holy shit nice sitting to that. must have been scary for the horse and you

[horsegrlie459]

ALSO: Based on my last comment i'm sorry,you're not really supposed to 2-point on water like that but I mean that based on your other vids,sorry!

[horsegrlie459]

Haha :)) i'm not on youtube to point out bad riding(not saying you're bad) but,in 2-point,try to bend at your hips,you have more of a straight up kinda thing going there,give the horse her head by putting your arms up on her neck and they will pretty much naturally make your hips bend.Hope I helped you :))

[PsychoticLovex]

Really well sat & good recovery. =D

xx

[PonyLova777]

that wasn't the rider's fault anyway, the horse just made a mistake, but horses do that sometimes,, even olympic standard ones, so anyway, nice video

[Jump2therhythem]

just saying, you probably should have been wearing a protective vest. but who am i to say? you can do what you want, and btw that was AMAZING!! :]

[GogglesRequired]

well sat -- looked very ballanced!! nice horse btw. probably need more practise with water jumps eh? lol

well done!

[Chephira]

haha that was too cute

[BlackBerryHELPER]

haha you could have cleared that if it was a foot higher too lol

[archiedug]

awhh well done for sitting tight :) my horse does exactly the same! i took him to jump into the water about 20 times after eachh other and he kept doing it everytime lol

[blueyescry]

thats rather cute actually.. lol

hope his legs were alright =]

[lexilou900]

good job staying on.

[RainingPuzzlePieces]

AHAHAHAA that happend to me to!!!, well done for staying on XDDD *cough cough* I didnt SPLASH!!! lol

[NcBabes99]

I dont see why yous all keep putting her down! i think its amaziing what shes dont with theese horses. :S so what she might not be the best rider but who is? nobodys perfect FFS!! get a grip and leave her alone if you cant say something nice dont say fukin anythin atal okay?

[Bibkinz80]

SHUT UP all you stupid people who are insulting her.

It is NOT her fault and it is not Jay's fault. It was a slip up and she never said she was trying to be perfect.

[Daiizx]

Haha crazyy Jay :)

Nice one Lucille, can definitely see an improvement from then to now! :D

[XxEndurancexX]

wow that looks well fun!!!! great riding for stayig on lol

[poeticussomnibus]

maybe you need a more experienced trainer. I am training a horse to jump, but I NEVER jump without my trainer there to help me if somehthing goes wrong. Plus I think you rushed him to jump a little bit. I don't think he is ready for big water jumps. I would KILL to have my own horse! You're gonna really hurt him one day and maybe you'll finally realize that you need to learn a thing or two about training horses!

[milka234]

and you need to get your head from imbetween you buttocks, and realise that noone cares for you oppinion unless your going to be constructive. and the stuff youve put in caps dosent count.

[poeticussomnibus]

I am sorry if I upset you. I just get really upset when I see this cause my friends horse died like this and she was put in the hospital for like month. I dont think she was ever the same after he died :( I would just hate to see it happen to this girl.

[KissesInnThRain]

piss off - who asked you? no one, so take your little smart arse self off somewhere else thanks!

[KissesInnThRain]

if u dont jump without ur trainer there, u are not fit to be training horses to jump urself.

[HorseJumper39521]

oops, sry, i agree with u

[KissesInnThRain]

thanku (: x

[hadleyHunterpony]

who are you to say that.... maybe she has trained other horses- just cause she didnt have a trainer there doesnt mean she cant train her horse... i trained my own horse to jump- my trainer said that he would only ever jump 2'6 tops- i have him all the way up to 3'9 easily and he clears that by tons- that was not that long ago and i dont jump alot without my trainer there but i can train my own horse- so are you saying i cant train my own horse either?

[KissesInnThRain]

EXCUSE ME ? i wasnt saying that about the girl in the video i was saying that in response to another comment ! i read a comment which said ' i trained my horse to jump but i never jump without my trainer there ' i was talking in response to that, not to the girl in the video ! so please refrain from slating me till you know the full story !

[hadleyHunterpony]

Oh crap im sorry- i was confused.. :/ yeah then ok that makes more since... whoops...

[PonyLova777]

u r stupid, the horse can probably jump into water very well now, i dont even hav a trainer, does that stop me from jumping into water? NO! there r millions of people without trainers in the world, do they not go to shows or pony club? no they do! OMG! just cuz of one mistake u take it out on the rider for not waiting for her trainer to com, the horse would of done the same thing with the triainer there,lol its not going to behave just cuz her trainer is there,gosh every horse mucks up sometimes

[riderchickgeist]

I trained my leas horse Lily up to 3'3" w/o my trainer. and I have a slide show of one of my lesson with all the jump heights. yea, I don't jump x-c a lot, but you don't need a trainer there to jump.

[melikesapplejuic]

Your very lucky that your parents can buy these expensive, amazing horses for you, but you need a trainer for them, or a better one if you have one. Your parents can't buy your way into the olympics...

[lucillebob]

haaaaaaa, i bought this horse myself , totally off my own back, If you watch our 10 week vid, or the crazy hoss vid you will see just how far we have come

please take ur head from up your own arse ;)

xx

[littlepurpleliv]

@melikesapplejuic jealous, much?

[penguinlover42]

@melikesapplejuic

That is quite a statement! And if, perhaps, you could pull our head out of the sand for a moment, this horse i CLEARLY not meant for the Olympics! Not every equestrian is a hot-shot country-club girl whose daddy bought her a pony. You are very small minded, my friend.

[XrugbygurlX]

@melikesapplejuic Coz i bet you've never had an awkward jump?!?!?!?!

I hate it when people come on other people's videos and say stuff like this. I'm sorry but your comment is very unfair. this is one 35 second long video, a tiny tiny snippet of their life together and you judge them like that?!?!?! at least she has the guts to post their mistakes.

[rockymntgirl215]

@melikesapplejuic

how said she wants to go to the Olympics, and there is nothing wrong with training your own horse, i think she done great, its not her fault her horse over jumped, so get over yourself and worry about your own horses.

[WondersCreated]

@melikesapplejuic That's true in a lot of cases, but not hers.

[melikesapplejuic]

ok I have now watched a lot of your videos and I find in too coincidental that all the horses you ride are having BIG problems. Something that I noticed is that you DO NOT give your hands over the jumps and its ruining the horses and causing them to rush to the jumps. Also you have not practiced these horses with simple ground poles, so they are getting their timing all messed up, hence the early take off. you NEED to go back to basics with ALL your horses. And progress SLOWLLY (continued)

[mandaagoesrawrr]

i thought this was really cute,

BUT I TOTES AGREE.

[lainerzzz]

While I do agree with most of the comments to some degree, I do think it was handled rather well. If a horse overjumps anything, from water to skinnies, on cross country, it's always best to remain in the defensive back-seat position. Just think, if she were ahead of the horse, his knees would have buckled on landing, and he might have plowed head first into the water. Since she slipped her reins, gave him his head, and allowed him to figure it out without rider inhibition, I think (continued)

[lainerzzz]

that the horse was given a good ride considering the circumstances. With that said, however, this horse should obviously not be jumping a legitimate bank into water. Event horses, if taught to leap into water, will not be able to progress past the training level. This horse should have been taken over SEVERAL dry baks first, then through the water, trotted out over a smaller bank, and then trotted or walked off a smaller bank. (continued)

[lainerzzz]

If you canter a green horse off a down into water, they will feel inclined to leap. Speed is not the best tool when teaching a young horse to drop off a bank... even lunging him first over it would have been a good training tactic.

Good luck with your green horse!

[wattamus]

Lainerzzz this isnt to start an argument or anything but if you watch her other Xc vid you will see that he handles banks/ steps really well, and this was just because he hadnt jumped into water off that height before. but i can understand why you would think that and, to a certian extent, you are right. xx

[shortnotice101]

mayb it was just the jump but u pulled back wayyy 2 much during the landing

[riderchickgeist]

she slipped her reins after he jumped so she wouldn't do just that

[moodymare96]

yikes he's got alot of potential! well done for staying on! that was amazing

[HorseGurl010]

Learn to follow through with the horse ok! Stop trying to jump high, because you cant jump at all! Just STOP and work on crossrails! YOU JACKASS.

[omgitscloeee]

Yay somone who sees the same as me! thanks, Everyone should stop encouraging this riding!

[GangstaRat]

haha my standardbred did the exact same thing with his first water jump

[CluTooRoni]

talk about being left behind and sitting on your horse mid jump

[GangstaRat]

if your horse had jumped like this you would have done the same thing dickhead

[CluTooRoni]

lol i would of been alittle more prepared for a green horse to jump like a freak.

[GangstaRat]

i didn't say i wasn't prepared, i just said he jumped like this.

[CluTooRoni]

mkay??

[milliesmix]

OMG that is Gilberdyke!!!

I go there loads, it is mint, well weird haha.

Nice jump haha, i think he jumped it a bit big, well done for staying on though.

Jesi x

[HorseGurl010]

You fuckin suck!! FOLLOW THROUGH WITH THE POOR HORSE!

[FineFilly7]

calm down love! :s

[abraever]

LMAO Looks like he tried jumping the lot

[Horsesdontlie]

Love it. xD Maybe he thought he could clear the whole water? Lol. I love that he didn't refuse though and choose to jump the scary water than refuse, he must have trust in you but just didn't quiet know where to put his feet.

[Squeekii]

Aaww
