Sexy, Techno, 2nd Level Dressage!

Okay, not really. xD Just my rather boring tests of my Second Level debut. (Trust me, its ALOT harder then it looks, connection, impulsion, bending are all happening here and it is a real frusteration to achieve sometimes.) Buuuuut anyways, so yeah I'm excited. =))))))

The Superstar: K2, my 16.2hh hanoverian gelding. Ain't he purty?
Rider: Caitlin, PiaffeQueen, Caty-do-diddle, whatever really.
Judge: A tough, but fair judge. I got an 8 and a 3 in the same test. Are I not talented?! Be jealous. lol

Movements:
Counter Canter: Sux because he wants to do a flying lead change, it takes all my mighty power to keep him on that dang lead without switching.

Shoulder in: Can't see it very well in the video due to the camera angle. Too bad.

Haunches in: Same problem as Shoulder in.

Reinback: Yeahhhhh not very good I know. Working on it.

Canter walk, walk canter trans: Usually are very AMAZING, in the show ring however, FAIL.

Free Walk: Boring. Fast forwarded it.

Ten Meter Circle: Ehhh how about a 15 meter circle???

Medium Canter/Trot: Depends on the direction we are headed. Usually quite good until I reach the center line, then fatigue kicks in and I give up trying to ride the bouncy, so I become the bouncy. xD

Wow long description. But I'm hyper, and its 1:30 am on a school night. (I'm homeschooled but still....)
