[mollymoo4561]

awww hes stunning :)

[dragonfly1030]

Thanks; I bought him from a private owner in PA.

[Horsebuggy2]

aww i love your horse :) and great riding :)

[dragonfly1030]

Thank you; you are far too kind. It just takes practice--I still always have to tweak things with my position, too.

[BeautySwift]

What were they building in the background? By the way, great riding!

[dragonfly1030]

They were building additional stalls on the show barn. Thank you! :)

[dragonfly1030]

Thank you :)

[blondex0ne95]

[dragonfly1030]

Thank you, I try! :)

[blondex0ne95]

[dragonfly1030]

Thanks :)

[MyChemProductions]

Duncan and You are made for eachother

:3

Keep up the amazing work!

[dragonfly1030]

Thank you! :)

[HorseszRuleLol]

No worries lol

I forgot to add he is really pretty :D

[PINTOSRNEAT]

You are amazing! I'm just starting up with tall boots (hand-me-down skinny calf customs, whoop! whoop!) and I noticed you have amazing eq in yours. I can barely ride in them! I fell like I'm agitating my pony's side and I can't hold my leg still. And... well... do you have any tips?

[dragonfly1030]

First off, you're very kind. I wouldn't go so far as to call my eq. amazing, but I try! They just take a lot of getting used to--I suggest riding w/out stirrups to help. Anytime I feel like my leg is starting to move around, I go back to riding in my bareback pad. Sometimes you just have to reinforce the correct muscle memory.

[PINTOSRNEAT]

Thank you! And I love your eq.! My pony is awesome bareback -he has no withers!- and so I think I'll do that. Then I'll move up to no stirrups, then I'll see how it goes with them. Thank you so much! I know It'll help!

[frecklesrulz]

how tal is he???

[dragonfly1030]

Around 15.3/16...we taped him not that long ago and he seemed to be about 16.

[BabyKluvsYA]

that was really cool! i really like your horse and i love the beggining too!

[dragonfly1030]

Thank you! :)

[frecklesrulz]

Duncan looks amazing. =)

[dragonfly1030]

Good old Harry Potter! :) Thanks!

[Physdelicdreaming]

OMG I am LOVING his bascule over fences! It is gorgeous...he just stretches his neck and legs out...beautiful. You guys are doing G-R-E-A-T. Keep up the good work! :)

[dragonfly1030]

Thank you so much! :)

[kampa555]

There is A DUNCAN at the barn i ride at!!! But he looks nothing like ur Duncan...

[imjustjoking22]

You guys are looking amazing! You stayed with him SO well through the whole video, even when he took a long spot or went a little deep. Great job with him!

[dragonfly1030]

Thank you! He used to be quite fond of the launchers, but luckily he's getting more consistent and they happen less and less. He's taught me a lot! :)

[JumpinTheClouds]

Harry Potter is the shizz.

So is Duncan.

Together, they are total gangsters.x

Peace.

[dragonfly1030]

Hahaha, awesome! :)

[HondaThoru]

I adore the beginning scene.

[dragonfly1030]

Thanks! :)

[hunterjumpergirl7]

omg im so jelous of your horse hahhah!! he is sooo pretty! and your a great rider!! i love your position just watch rounding those shoulders in jumping position...(i do it too )

[dragonfly1030]

Yeah, it's a hell of a habit to break!  It's gotten better, but if I have to really drive him forward and I'm starting to get tired, there it is! :-P Thanks for commenting! :)

[hunterjumpergirl7]

[dragonfly1030]

Thank you very much! :)

[ilovemybc1992]

He looks completely fabulous!

I have a yearling paint filly that im hoping to start jumping eventually. And, i love the harry potter song. =]

[dragonfly1030]

Awesome! What does she look like?

[ilovemybc1992]

shes a sorrel. with a snip, and a left rear sock. talltalltall. i think she'll mature to atleast 15.2-16hh.

[dragonfly1030]

Sounds adorable! Let me know if you post a video of her! :)

[ilovemybc1992]

okedokee. I'll try and get one up soon.

[eqismexox]

Haha, love the music. He seems a lot more consistant throughout the courses now.

[dragonfly1030]

He's getting there! If he's a bit wired, he's really spot-on; with the humid/hot weather, it's been a bit rough on us! :)

[LulitaInPita]

great music choice! =] and keep up the good work with Duncan! =]

[dragonfly1030]

Many thanks! :)

[howlidayuser]

[dragonfly1030]

Thank you very much! I love the Harry Potter movies. :)

[wendytyme]

duncan looks great! and love the harry potter music.. i just bought a paint cross from NC and i think im going to call him Cedric. :-)

[dragonfly1030]

Actually, it's Harry Potter! I haven't seen the new CATCF--is it good? I don't think my barn does hold shows, but it definitely has the facilities to do so if they wanted to. Thanks! :)

[dragonfly1030]

Ah, this time we watched the Order of the Phoenix! :)

[dragonfly1030]

Thank you! :) :)

[tahlzx0x0]

[hanahhorse]

wohoooo!

that course looked great!!

[dragonfly1030]

Aw, thanks a bunch! :)

[xEventRiderx3]

Good job on your videos. What shows are you going to? Good luck!

[dragonfly1030]

Two at the Sussex Fairgrounds--one's a C rated and one's the State Fair (A-rated). Eek! :)

[ILOVEJAZZ93]

Awesome riding! And CUTTTTTTE horse!!! Seriously!...and hmm.. I sense that you were watching... Harry Potter?

[dragonfly1030]

Good call! :) That would be correct!

[MarshmellowManda]

I love Harry Potter!!! I've been watching the movies a lot lately. I like the beginning too, the ground poles :) are they adding on to your barn? i see construction going on.

[dragonfly1030]

Me too! They are adding on to the show barn (which is behind the regular barn, where Dunc lives)--I think they're adding stalls. The construction's going up fast--it's the same company who built the rest of the show barn, including its gorgeous indoor, so I bet it will be awesome!

[XRedxDanniX]

haha Harry Potter! xD

He looks really good!

I love the beginning!

GREAT VIDEO.

[dragonfly1030]

Thanks! :)

[Springalicious77]

whoo this is so cool! i know i've said it before, but you and duncan look soo good together! keep up the good work! oh, and my friend has those pro choice boots :P

[dragonfly1030]

I am a big fan of the Profchos! (that's what I have nicknamed the boots)  Thank you! :)

[JewishEquestrian]

You guys are looking awesome!

I love how well the music goes with his jumping, nice job!

[dragonfly1030]

Thank you very much! :)

[megz135]

haha nice, which harry potter movie was it?

[dragonfly1030]

I think this song is from the Sorcerer's Stone soundtrack.
