As you know, Nikita has been off jumping for over a year...as a result, so have i

so do NOOOOOT critique!! she got the OK from the vet to be back in jumping again, she is perfectly fine!! So this is our FIRST time after being off for over a year so a critique would hardly be far.

Gabby, SUGGESTIONS i will accept, no critique! just cuz she is learning. this is like her 4th time EVER jumping. she is with a trainer, not with me.

and i put it to music cuz i was embaressed what i was yelling ;D "WOOOO HOOOO! THAT WAS FUCKING FUN MAN!! WOOOO" haha the music covers it up

cute!
Have you considered shortening your stirrups a few holes?
It would give you more balance especially where you're just getting back into jumping.

[jennaj]

^its crossed my mind w/ Nikita's (its the pessoa)
But the saddle i have on Gabby doesnt go any shorter. It is a saddle on trial and i dont want to punch holes in it cause were not gonna keep it. it slides off to the side... were just using it untill the new one comes in.

[Rebecca]

haha yeah
i'd try a good 3 holes shorter and see how that feels

[jesssie]

the link does not work?

[Rebecca]

hmm, you're right. She must have deleted the video.

[jennaj]

Sorry i think i accidently did. I had a very old account and delted a bunch of shit.
i guess i was just on a roll....

i'll post it up again some other time i have abusy week a head of me.

haha jay i'v seen ur video! nikita is soo cute! too bad i couldnt come see you and ur ponies when i went to that jumping clinic i was like what 5 mins away from ur place! psh..well i think i might be going up there soon if i do maybe i will give u a call!

[jennaj]

psht yes you will!!!! lol. i wasnt out riding that morning anyway...i was helping my friend move in her apartment cuz she needed a truck so yeah....i used my rent's truck.
I was out there around like 11 or so...so it would have been about the time u got done at the FF clinic. lol
oh well, glad u had fun...sorry you didnt get the best horse. But then again, its a "young kids barn" with a bunch of horses that are really good for beginners. thats why i suggested Ridgeview for you or Flying Horse!
but yes, if ur back here again gimme a call.

[emily]

do they have a website?..if i find a place up there i would get to take lessons every weekend in the summer and shit since my rents camp not too far away from la crosse

[jennaj]

No, ridgeview doesnt. its really new so they dont have one up yet. Ridgeview does have their fair share of kids and young teens, so they can get kind of annoying and cocky. Especially since Bit'N' Bridle had that HUUUUGE fall out and all their cocky ones moved to ridgeview. so if i were u and went to ridgeview, just mind ur own business dont get involved with any of the young peoples drama lol. but its an amazing place, truley is. Down side? their pastures are like 2 miles long and horses always hang out at the very end...hae a fun hike

Flying horse does. it is under construction so its not gonna help you much but there is contact info and crap. Im actually the youngest one at flying horse so its not like a bunch of young immature kids running around and absolutley NO barn drama lol.

yyya idk if u hear but Bit N bridle had that HUUUUGE fall out when Julie Harder's daughter took over managing the barn. None of the horses were being fed or given water to. You had to do it yourself. lol!!! so everyone left.


flying horse website: (again, its under construction so there isnt much there) Dawn is the barn owner, she is honestly like my favorite person in the world lol.
