aye, try riding bareback next time- the water can do horrid things to yer saddle :(

That looks like so much fun! At the place where I ride, we're right next to a highway and the old trailrides got destroyed when they made said highway, so the only things we get to do like this happen at shows. I've always wanted to do this though! (:

I would suggest wearing a helmet though, not as much in water but on the roads. :D

Great video, but the horses never swim. Learned this the hard way. When a horse swims, only his ears &eyes are out of the water and the rider is fully submerged. These horses are doing what we call dancing across the bottom(still great fun). If you don't believe me, put them in deeper water, just when the horse starts swimming,swim above him, but do not let him turn toward you or he can drown you. When he swims, if you touch his back,you will force him under. Like I said,we learned the hard way.

Isn't swimming with your horse the absolute BEST?

Bandit is beautiful, but i think his tail was a little bit to long, hm?
