Random horsey-ness

[ht_murray]

Hmm, so a couple people mentioned a certain J's girlfriend watched golf for him. GOLF! And I was like, yeah. That's sweet. Which reminded me that my hubby watches Dressage for me. I get on these kicks where I watch dressage vids all day long sometimes, and he never tells me to turn them off. He even tries to comment. Though, after 12 years he still doesn't know a piaffe from a passage, which is too cute.

Anyway, this is dressage. And this is the good stuff. Now tell me, if you were not a horse person, would you sit through this for hours on end?

LOL, I used to run around doing my own flying changes and things, too. We actually had an instructor in college who used to use her own body to demonstrate complex movements. It was fun to watch even if it didn't QUITE translate under saddle.

I don't really understand the judging system at all. I know how to diagram an arena and breakdown a test by movement but how they're scored, I have no clue. In most cases, though, the winner is usually hands above the rest, anyway, so it's not that hard to figure out what they're looking for.
