I am always in awe of those that ride bridless and bareback. I think the people that can achieve such harmony with an animal is a gift they have been given. Though I cannot imagine the work that goes into it too. Here is a pair that though not bridless are performing beautiful dressage movements bitless and bareback. I stand in awe.
Not your average OTTB given another chance at a new life and a mostly average busy Mom who never gave up on her dream to ride again. An unlikely pair at an unlikely time, learning to event and loving life!
Lovely pair! I'd take that horse home in a heartbeat.
ReplyDeleteWow, I love this horse! I second Karen :) It's so neat to see a pair working without a double bridle at these movements.
ReplyDeleteWOW..that is pretty great. Even that bitless was the most simple design, that is some major communication.
ReplyDeleteOh wow.....that's amazing.
ReplyDeleteThat is amazing. I hope to be able to ride Poppy bareback and bridle-less one day. We can do bareback and in a halter but i don't think that counts.
ReplyDeleteI occasionally ride bareback and bridleless, but it's NOT like this. I can walk, trot, canter, and whoa with basic steering. I could PROBABLY jump a cross rail. That's it.
ReplyDeleteAwesome!!
