  • super videos! danke!

    hat denn jemand isabell werth´s kür von atlanta 1996?

    ich hätt das gerne mal gesehen.

  • Ich spreche ein biBchen Deutsch. :) Ich habe Isabelle Werth's kur von Atlanta 1996.

    However, the version I have is copyrighted, so I can't post it. :(

  • Thank you. But I have the same complaint about it as for too many Olympics eq. competitions -- those danged cameramen spend way too much time on shots of flags or close ups of people, and miss wonderful things the horses are doing -- like this! Oh, where was the close-up of those beautiful changes? waaahhhhhhh! ;-)

  • Just yesterday I posted a video taken by a spectator at the competition and it shows all of the tempi changes. You'll find it under a listing of all my videos.

  • Glad to hear you enjoyed going back in time. Someone who was there is sending me video they took of the 75 one tempi changes Dr. Klimke did on Ahlerich during his victory lap. Hope to have it posted soon!

  • I think Dr. Klimke was probably one of the greatest horsemen of any age; he was a true amateur - prepared and trained all of his own horses - all while working full time as a lawyer and a member of the state parliament - incredible individual.

  • What a showman! The best dressage rider ever. All with one hand!! 0.o WHOO HOO!!!

see all

Dr. Rainer Klimke und Anne Grete Jensen ritten zusammen eine wundervolle Kür :)))))) Heute müßte man sich vorstellen....Isabelle Werth und Anki van Grunsven...UNVORSTELLBAR.Das war noch Dressur !!!!!

  • @horsessculler

    This is so right! Without putting down any of the today riders Dr. Reiner Klimke was a horseman of its own kind. And Ahlerich, well, there's nothing else to say about this horse than simply gorgeous!

    May they both rest in peace!

  • CHAPEAU!

  • awesome that test was just stunning .... the victory lap was amazing ...consider now many modern champions are led in for prize givings ... says it all really !!!

  • probably the best riding performance ever - hope one day we will see dressage that way again..

  • It the best horseman of all times and people!!! It the MASTER!!! It the TEACHER!!!!

     It the GENIUS!!!! Thanks for this video

  • Was hätte der aus einem Pferd wie Totilas gemacht...sicher kein Zirkuspferd. Das nenne ich eine perfekte Vorstellung...ein gelassenes Pferd, mit dem man eine Siegerehrung reiten kann. Gruß an Frau Grunsven

  • This is perfection and true partnership with the horse vs. domination and micro-management. You can still train like this today, if you find a trainer who sticks to HDV12 and if you are willing to invest several more years into training than 'modern' riders do. Also see Dr. Heuschmann's DVD 'If horses could speak''.
