Casper falls & Roger to the rescue! | GoPro

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ส.ค. 2024
- The fall is at 3:00 - read the description below for more info on what happened.
Casper was absolutely 100% fine and not even slightly fazed as he slid down rather than falling heavily - the GoPro footage makes it look much more dramatic than it was as the camera was attached to my head, which hit the ground a lot faster/from higher up. Obviously I would not have shared the video if Casper were harmed in any way, so there's no need to worry :-) I got back on and walked and trotted him round for a bit to make sure he was still confident and happy (which he was!) before swapping onto Roger for the rest of the lesson just to be on the safe side (Rodge is more balanced whereas Casper is very weak on the right rein, particularly in the canter, which is partly why he fell - although the brand new wood chip surface is a little loose, all the other horses were fine on it). The arena will be no problem for Casper once the new surface has settled down a bit more, even if he gets a bit of wheel spin in the canter!
No need to give me ‘tips’ in the comments or try to tell me what I did wrong. I can see exactly what mistakes I made and have learnt from the fall how I could have ridden differently and changed the outcome :-)
In case you’re wondering exactly why/how Casper fell, I had a dilemma with Casper while cantering, which was that I could either let him bend to the outside and lead with his inside shoulder round the corner on the right rein, which he does because he’s very weak and unbalanced on the right lead, or do what I usually do which is to open my inside hand, close my inside leg and push him out into the corner. The trouble then is that Casper, being green, often still mistakes all types of leg pressure as ‘go go go!!’ and it can cause him to speed off at 100mph, which is exactly what I didn’t want him to do on the newly laid looser surface, equally it would mean a sharper corner which I was also trying to avoid in this lesson due to Casper’s lack of balance. I decided to let him bend to the outside in a steady canter and take a sweeping line down round the end of the school as I had done the previous time, but unfortunately he sped up round the turn to try to catch up with the horse in front (which in turn meant leaning in further with his inside shoulder) and I wasn’t able to correct in time before we fell. It really was just one of those freak accidents that happens when all kinds of variables happen at once - horses are living, breathing creatures with minds of their own who do not always react or respond in the way we expect them to!
With regards to the wood chip surface: It's the exact same surface I've been riding on for the last three years in all of my lesson videos, it's was just resurfaced a few days ago which is why it looks so different. I've personally ridden on wood chip for 12 years, seen over 70 horses & ponies ridden on the surface, and this is the first one I've ever seen go down. Wood chip is an eco friendly, hard wearing and inexpensive option for surfacing that is low maintenance and offers good footing once settled (again, this arena was only resurfaced a few days previously). For this reason it’s often quite popular with riding schools in the UK.
- It is NOT slippery to ride on once settled.
- It is NOT uncomfortable for the horses feet.
- It has NOT got sharp or splintery edges.
- It is SOFT to land on for both horse & rider.
- It is SPECIFICALLY MADE for equestrian arenas.
- Please remember, I go to a riding school once a week for lessons, I DO NOT have a say in the arena surface (though I have no problem with wood chip). There's no point in telling me to change it :-)
I got my second concussion of the year from the fall as well as whiplash, but after a quick visit to A&E and a few days of taking it easy I am now also fine! I couldn’t remember falling off or swapping horses, and at one point actually had to check my arm for wood chips as evidence that I had hit the deck on Casper earlier on - editing the footage was very entertaining as it was like seeing one of my own videos for the very first time!

Also guys we don't keep the bridles on the horses 24/7 😂 They're tacked up by the lovely grooms who work there before lessons (this is a busy riding school and livery yard), which is why when I approach the horses in my videos they're already tacked up and I just have to do some final adjustments.
Oh I understand now😂👍
PonyCam this is basically exactly how my barn does it so I just assumed lol 😂
The QueenWonderland to save time. They do it at my barn too. You have a lot of people riding in one day so.
PonyCam i panicked for a minute there xD
The QueenWonderland Not every yard has the same rules! At this yard the grooms tack up the horses, no ifs or buts. As well as saving time (on the weekend there can be up to eight different rides going out throughout the day that need to leave the yard exactly on time), it also means that the horses are guaranteed to be tacked up correctly, rather than having the horses tacked up by kids, or even adults, who claim to know what they’re doing, but end up causing the horse pain or distress because they lied or overestimated their capabilities - that doesn’t sound very selfish to me. In addition, this yard also teaches children & adults with special needs and disabilities, kids from children’s homes, children from schools during the week and kids who’s parents have no idea about horses and will only bring their children for the exact amount of time the lesson takes - these people literally cannot tack up their own horses because they are either physically unable to or are brought by carers who can only spare a certain amount of time at the yard - it would also be incredibly unfair for the grooms to waste their time waiting to see who turns up in time to tack up their own horse for every single lesson and then having to quickly throw on the tack last minute to still get the ride out on time when the riders don’t arrive early enough, they’ve got enough on their plates already. Finally, this is a rural area, sometimes you think you’re going to make it in good time for your lesson, but then you get stuck behind a tractor for 20 minutes, or there are sheep on the road, or one of the villages has closed its roads for the weekend - even if people said they wanted to turn up early to tack up their own horse, there are no guarantees they’d actually make it in time.
You’ve stated you ‘don’t want to hate' on anyone and yet have immediately gone on to imply that anyone who doesn’t or can’t tack up their own horse for whatever reason is selfish. I hope you’ll consider the notion that not every yard works the same way as yours and not every person has the same opportunities as you. x
‘U can’t roll’
Casper:
Fine I’ll fall then
Lol I think my friends horse did that before because right before she rode her horse she let her run in the arena and she sad now don't roll anymore and she started to lope around the arena and the horse kinda did a fake fall because she fake slipped and then layed down
LolXD😂🤣
XD
Lol
Lol but falling isn't as fun as rolling
Hello! For some reason the arena surface seems to be causing a lot of debate. If you haven’t managed to make it through the video description, please at least read this: This woodchip surface, which is specifically made with equestrian arenas in mind, is the exact same surface I've been riding on for the last three years in all of my lesson videos, it's was just resurfaced a few days ago which is why it looks so different to normal. I've personally ridden on wood chip for 12 years, seen over 70 horses & ponies ridden on the surface, and this is the first time I’ve ever seen a horse slip and go down. Wood chip is an eco friendly, hard wearing and inexpensive option for surfacing that is low maintenance and offers good footing once settled (again, this arena was only resurfaced a few days previously). For this reason it’s often quite popular with riding schools in the UK.

Okay :) xx
She said that he wanted to roll. Then he did
Its okay. And i also go once a week or sometimes twice. I really enjoy this sport with a great teacher and horse!! Keep going with the video's
I hate woodchip though😂 although at least it doesn‘t go everywhere like sand does when you fall off... ( i‘ve found sand in my underwear)...
Wasn't this woodchips wet sfter rain because it seems like.
If I could change one thing about my riding I’d definitely want loads more confidence. I lost a lot of my confidence after a bad fall.
Painted. jumper the same I had only been able to canter for 3weeks and the horse cantered And decided to throw me off an I broke my nose!
Horses/dogs oh my gosh. I hope you’re okay. That definitely must have knocked your confidence down 😕
I know how you feel. 6 weeks ago the horse I was riding threw me off straight into the wall that definitely made my confidence go down. I bruised my hip and now 6 weeks later I'm still not better.
Painted. jumper it’s definitely scary for the first times but I’ve fallen a few times and after a while it’s like “oh ouch okay back on the horse”
And I haven’t ridden in like 8 years I want to ride again so BAD
Hey you! So in august I was riding a mare who was extremely green. (She was a wild mustang and under 4 months we were riding in open spaces). Problem was she is a very lazy horse and doesnt like going at a fast pace. Lets just say she was meant to be a walking trail horse haha. Well i took her out for a ride for some schooling and she started bucking. She bucked 5 times while she was at a full gallop and on the 4th buck i became a flying superwoman! It was traumitizing and I continued with ground work. It actually took me a while to get back on (about 2 months) because i wanted to work her in a roundpen and gain more respect. (She is horrible in free lunging because she is a "problem" horse who strikes at you and is very stubborn.)But after 2 months of weekly training I got back on! I now ride daily. (All gaits) and im jumping with complete confidence! Just start with some groundwork and gain confidence there first. Then get on. If it makes you feel better have the horse on a lead rope and start by someone leading her around. Once you get enough confidence you can slowly but surely get her to a trot and canter! I believe in you!!! Always remember that by taking the first steps to get back on you are already 100% better then the ones you have never fell! In my 3 yrs of riding i have had about 2 concusions from horses I have been breaking and there will be plenty more to come. You gotta accept it. It really helps to watch motivational videos and equestrian videos. One quote I live by is, "Dont think of it as a problem, but rather an oppurtunity to learn." I came up with it one day and ever since it has impacted by riding greatly. Keep motivated. I would love to hear about your first ride and how you got that confidence back. Im open for questions if you need someone who has been in your position!

“I said he wanted a roll. Not quite what I meant”
EDIT: Woah it normally takes me about 2 weeks to get 60 likes! Thanks for the likes ❤️
Grace Owen 😂😂
Alo Is My Furry 91 and I will give ur reply a..... thumbs up!!
You handled the fall very well, you just got straight up and got back on.
Another horse ❤
It’s good they got you a new horse to ride it looks Like such a caring place you can tell their priority is the horses and the riders
I've had a horse go down with me on wood chips before too. And on grass, in the woods, and in the snow. It's not the footing's fault or the horse or the rider -- things like that happen. I think it embarasses them more than anything. The wood chips do make a nice surface to ride on -- unless you fall and get a piece in your ear :)
Bander Snatch my horse is so good on tripping.. I was in half seat and she tripped and I flipped over her head and that was my first fall. Haha
I had a horse slip on a wet road it was nobody's fault it was just wet. He landed on my and we both got up and carried on fine. I have however been put off riding on roads but I've never like riding on them anyway
Bander Snatch a horse wiped out in our sand/dust mixed arena before and it was just because he was unbalanced at the canter.
Yeah. I trip over air too
Bander Snatch imagine how painful it would be to land on solid ground 😳😥😓
He was adorable when he was holding your crop XD
you are so friendly to your pony
HIS COAT COLOR😍😍 IS SO PRETTY
Edit: omg I got a heart, i love your channel and you and ahh ❤
Why did I read this like HIS HOT COT IS SO PRETTY
@@equineedits5562 literally me though
I luv his coat
I have a horse it's a friesan horse and it's black
MARISSA REEVES I’m pretty sure it’s s red roan! :) And I love it so much! ❤️
I loved how you just ignored how you fell and kept riding! Now that's a true rider! ❤
You’re so chill about it😂
Lol, if you freak out the horse will freak out so in this situation you need to stay calm.
Shes just not a drama queen who starts crying cuz she fell of a horse...
Julya Flyer exactly, it’s bad if you just plop in the ground and you cry, but some falls can be really, really painful.
@Kray The Fin Yep
@@cocoa_ts2471it’s fine if people cry after falling off; it can be painful, or scary. just because someone cries, doesn’t mean they’re being dramatic.
Glad you’re both okay and the arena looks really nice with the new chippings! It seems a lot bigger as well ❤️
I'm so glad you got back up and said caring words to Caspar love u good boy Caspar
I think that you and Casper handled that fall AMAZINGLY!!! I would've been way to shaken up honestly. You are the best! I know that you always do what is best for the ponies!! QOTD: I want to be able to see every single distance with ease lol Favorite Food Emoji 🍓
Horses: Hey everyone Casper fell over did u see that 😂🤣
Casper: I didn’t t fall over I was testing the wood chips 🥺🥺
Horses: We saw you 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Awwww hope he is better now ❤️❤️❤️
Awhhh imagine horses may make friendly jokes about each other 🥺 I have never thought of that
you and Casper both did so well!
It's great to have the confidence to get back on a horse after a fall like that. I've fallen loads of times and it always takes me a bit to feel comfortable again.
Glad you two are ok. Can not wait for some more videos💞💞👍🐴
I love how your horses are voice trained
Casper: *eats whip*
Rider: “Thanks?”
🧀 QOTD- I have a bad habit of tipping forwards, I can always feel myself doing it but just can't seem to correct it!
Grace Woodifield Try and push your heels down and forward more it should then push your body back x
I find opening (relaxing) my knees helps - that way you can't grip and your heels drop. Win win 👍but I do this too, so I empathise.
I have that issue but my instructor just says imagine you’re in a armchair
I see where you’re coming from, but you never wanna ride a horse like you’re sitting down. The reason is bc your legs will come way out infront if you. What I suggest doing is push your feet kind of forward, but keep your knees bent. Then lean back. It’s going to feel like you’re laying down on your horse. If you have mirrors in your arena I suggest doing it infront of a mirror. Try it at a walk first, and do a few transitions to get used to it. I’m not a professional or anything, but this really helped me when I started off.
Try and push your heels down as best as you can and relax youelr shoulders. This should tip you back 😂
AOTD: If I could change anything about my riding is that to remember not to compare myself to what others can do. I spent much time being disheartened because I couldn't jump higher than 70cm and is get frustrated with myself when things went wrong or I jerked over the jump. Now that I'm not riding until next year, I miss it more than ever and wish I spent more time enjoying what I do rather than being disappointed with my riding ability xx
Amen 🙌 xx
My mare can't even jump 6 inches. She just stops and looks back at me like "What?" Or she trots over it like a ground pole. I don't mind though, she's a dressage mare ans I'm probably never goong to ask her to jump over a foot or two.
Very true answer for lots of people! I've just given up comparing myself to others who own their horse, I get given dirty looks because my mare is scruffy and small along with being incredibly strangely built. She is not even a proper horse and more of a deer... Thinking about it I feel disheartened because she is so unusual and it causes lots of problems, but if she wasn't like that she wouldn't have a canter that makes me grin
I have a 27 year old Irish mare who quite often just can't be bothered and when I ride her I ride awfully but I enjoy it. I know I can ride better than that but it is just the way I ride her. I hate riding with others because I'm always bothered about what they would think. I just wish I wasn't as bothered and more confident to 'shoe her off'
Same im a very small kid and ride a pony I sometimes feel like the others in the arena I ride in judge me even though that might not be true
I really hate how in horse videos there's always criticism. Obviously the horses are well taken care of and happy and the rider is experienced. Smh 😐
Roger is always to the rescue! He’s such a good horse and a good friend!
Excellent work, you coped so well. No years or nothin’ 👍👍
Awww im so late but poor old casper!! Slippy surfaces is what im scared of when cantering a very speedy pony on the left rein!!! Well done for getting back on and what is with all this hate!?!?! ❤❤
🧀 I'm new to your channel and I love the way you talk to the horses! You're so patient. I've been riding since I was 9 (37 now) but after quite a few years hiatus due to back injuries, I'm starting up again with lessons. One thing I'm working to change is to build up my core and leg muscles again!
Casper is soo pretty and so is roger
Thank you for liking my comment
Oh my word - pretty much the exact same thing happened to me 3 weeks ago, except I broke my elbow...love sitting in A&E in full riding attire😂 so glad you & Casper are both ok!!
Omg r u okay!?
That sounded painful! I hope you are alright now! It just shows how risky riding is, something like that could happen at any moment.
Those ignorant people don’t know you or what the situation was. You can’t judge someone from a video.
I love your videos! They are good fun!
I glad you both are ok and you got back on and continued your lesson I had a bad fall when my pony fell.we were flat out galloping and I think she slipped so then half an hour later I started to finally come out of shock ( I wasn't knocked out but I can't remember what happened until half an hour later) she came away with bruised ribs I came away with a mild concussion and a bit of a confidence shake especially with jumping higher than 70cm in case one of us got hurt worse but we're back to normal now! P.S Casper is adorable🐴
Casper: I WILL MAKE THIS ARENA COLLAPSE
Roger: Roger to the rescue!!! 😂
i love how you talk to him
Awww Casper is SOOOO cuteeeeeeeeeeee
Well done for getting back on👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Oh god i love your video's. I never seen a channel like this before. I really enjoy it since I can learn alot about it too! And it's also just enjoyable to watch.
Your Channel randomly popped in my feed so now in literally binge watching!! I'm sick so this is an awesome distraction. Love your videos!! 🥬
Callie Marcum Hope you feel better soon!!
You are my inspiration and I know you might get tired of me always commenting but you are my inspiration!
QOTD- my heels! dear god, they'll never point down!!!
i'm so glad to hear you're doing better, can't wait to see you back on Casper speeding around a showjump course!
martoot same! And when my heels come up, my body leans forwards 🤣! I have been riding at least 8 years and it has never been an issue until recently😂. They should sell boots with lead heals to weigh them down😉😂
🍪🍪🍪 I think you've done a good job at staying calm and getting back on to reassure him ❤️👍👍
That’s scary! I’m glad you were okay.
🍫so sorry you have to work so hard to defend yourself from the keyboard warriors and also very sorrow Casper did the slide down and you hit your head 😮 I know how it feels to have your “bell rung” 🥴☹️ which leads me to what I would like to do better - be confident. I lose confidence since I come off often. V happy you are ok!
I have to second that! How did we come to this? You have to write an essay with a million of disclaimers before you can upload a video of a fall, which is completely normal and happens to all riders more or less. Looks like you are more scared of comments than falling off a horse. By the way, I also hit my head and have a whiplash every time I fall but only if I wear a helmet. It just makes my head heavy. If I don't have a helmet, I don't get a whiplash.
I felt had to write the ridiculous number of disclaimers in the description after receiving some absolutely awful judgemental messages when I uploaded the video onto instagram last week. It's sad, but necessary.
I've had whiplash a few times before when falling off, but I've also had one or two falls previously where I'm pretty sure if I wasn't wearing my helmet, my life would be very different than it is now, so I'll take a week or two of pain over permanent brain damage, or worse. It's obviously every individuals choice whether they want to wear a helmet or not, but having experienced four separate concussions from falling off horses, I'll stick to wearing mine :-)
@@PonyCam Don't worry I'm not advocating not wearing a helmet :) I also put one on in certain situations. Also in my case whiplash causes headache, last time it caused a headache that lasted for a month and ever since then I avoid helmets as much as I can :) And I also don't blame you for these disclaimers, I think if I had a video of me falling off I wouldn't even dare to upload it :) But I have a lot of fun watching others fall :D
My last concussion I couldn't remember who was president, I started crying when I was told it was Trump. Ugh! But I agree, I always have on my helmet!
something similar happened to me
So I was galloping when my pony tripped. She then rolled over her neck onto my leg with her full body. So she was laying on my leg with all her four hooves in the air. Gladly we're both fine. ❤️
Oh it must have hurt
Nice video! Love your accent. I like how when your in the arena out of all the horses yours were the most colorful 💖
Casper biting on your crop is such a mood 😂
You did well getting back on! My horse did the same out in the field a while ago... I hurt my back and head quite bad while she stayed down and started eating🙈
Hope you're ok now! Sounds like your horse had her priorities straight 😂
@@PonyCam oh absolutly hahaha
“Don’t be spooky Rog, im not in the mood for comin off again” mood.
So I read the description first because I wanted to watch the video having an idea of what happened so I didn’t judge or anything 😂 and knowing what time the fall was had me anticipating it and I was nervous for you lmao. Glad Caspar is all good and of course Rodger is there to save the day:) glad you’re alright too
Casper is like a toddler! So naughty and cheeky but totally adorable😍😍🙌❤️
You stayed so calm :-)... Very well done!
I am so happy you got back on! But I am so sorry your horse fell over while cantering!
QOTD - I would take away my fears.
That's not a question
@@avaspringwild6478 they're answering the question in the description like they're meant to.
I was answering the question of the day in the description.@@avaspringwild6478
AOTD: My instructor continuously tells me to keep my heels down so that's probably what I would change. Love your channel xxx
Hope you are both ok !!! It's happens to the best of us fall!!! Glad you keep going!!! 😀
I ride on woodchip myself. It is completely safe and, to be honest, very soft to land on after a fall! It's very safe for the horses hooves and it doesn't flood as easy as rubber (or whatever you use). Plus, this lovely rider can't help what the riding stables put in the riding arena! She isn't the one in charge and it's obvious she appreciates her horses very well. Well done, lady! You're such a good rider and so kind to your horses! x
Thank you very much :-)
@@PonyCam it's what equestrians do for eachother!
I read the full description!! I love your videos Claire and you are a great rider. ❤️ My favourite food: 🍦 Also I would love to have a proper two-point position. I have a slight back problem and I can never seem to get it right
caspar was so cute holding ur stick for u❤️ scary fall but really brave get back on again xx
Your videos amazing!
Loved the video! It was quite scary watching Casper just fall tbh 🍕
I love Casper's little ears!
*Ice cream emoji* (I'm on a computer so I don't know how to do emojis)
Are you planning to get your own horse? Just curious :)
Here she meant 🍦
Glad to see your ok
I just broke my arm today when I fell off so watching you made me feel the pain you were in. ;-;
your such an amazing rider, how you got back up. that riding school seems like such a loving place i can tell that their top priority are the horses and the riders. ( casper is such a beautiful colour )
This horse is very cute❤
“could you hold that for me?” “thank you your so helpful”
When my horse slipped and fell I broke my collarbone (now I can’t ride for awhile). I’m glad you and your horse are alright.
Y
Little did Claire know what was in store for her 😂 hope your okay xxx
🐴, and awesome video! Keep up the great work in riding and in videos 💚!
Glad he's ok. Before you comment read the description!
It's good to know Casper's okay and I hope you're also okay. Something my riding instructor says is to lie still for a minute or so to let your brain catch up with anything that happened. If I could change one thing about my riding it would probably be that I'd be more confident, same goes for a lot of my other hobbies.
Omg! You go straight back on the horse?! 😂 when i fell i was so scared 😂👏
Aww she loves him so much!
he is such a beautiful horse 💜💛💚
Yay first like! Xx glad your okay i love your channel and i have watched every vid at least twice I can't get enough of them ❤️❤️
I had a horse slip under me only once (it was a very rainy spring and the roof couldn't handle it, so in some places the sand was muddy) and it was a really scary experience. We didn't fall like you did, we were only going in a slow trot and the horse's front legs slipped and he kind of kneeled down for a few moments before he flailed back up - his front legs were slipping all over the place, so he needed a bit of time. Imagine a horse on the ice and you get the idea. Thankfully he didn't go hind over front, nor did he fall to the side but it still nearly gave me a heartattack. Just imagine, you are riding in slow trot, the only other people there are the instructor and one other girl following you, everyone is relaxed and resting after a full lesson, and then out of the nowhere your horse stops and it's head and neck disappears somewhere where the saddle is hiding the view and the whole horse tips forward and you have no idea what is happening.
Thank god nothing happened and the horse just continued as if he didn't just put up an impromptu show of tricks.
I'm glad Casper was okay, and I'm sorry about your concussion. I've had many messy falls, but miraculously I have avoided concussions or broken bones. I just hurt myself in stupid ways (like dropping a toy barn from a height and breaking my toe). It sounds like you're doing better, but make sure to take it easy! 😊🥑 (Also, I wish I was quieter rider. Sometimes I feel like I'm doing way too much with my body.)
I had a nasty fall about 6months ago and have had to start from the basics again as my confidence dropped like a rock :(
Howw can you explain a little bit more ..
🧀 Very glad you're both ok!!! That arena surface actually looks quite nice :) QOTD: I would love to change my absolute lack of confidence with trot-canter transitions :s
🥝. Glad you’re both okay !! I haven’t fallen off a horse yet or had one trip that badly but I know it’ll happen one day.
this looks like the set of Free Rein
Saved by Roger!!!!! Such a relief that Casper is ok!!!!
The fact that you had to fix the saddle 😂
Casper is a gorgeous horse all of them are
That was quite a fall! Glad you're both okay though!
Ooh! The arena looks nice!
i typically ride in a sand arena but i have no problem with grass, wood chips or anything good job on getting right back on every good rider gets back on after a fall
Casper is so cute ❤️❤️
So glad you were ok!
Casper seems like a sweet horse and he wouldn't hurt anyone
Quick question! Why does he have his bridle on when you go get him? No hate! I find that interesting.
Also is that a mexican bridle? :o
Goldcloud Eventing Please read the pinned comment at the top 👆😊 It’s a grackle noseband which stops the pony from crossing his jaw. I believe a Mexican bridle has metal rings and the ‘cross’ is higher up on the horses face, but the action in the same.
PonyCam Ohh okay! Thanks ❤️ I love your videos by the way :)
So cute! My favorite part was where he took your crop 😂
You guys did so well I hope you are both ok x if I game my horse my crop he would either eat it or threw it to New Zealand ( I live in the uk) I love Casper’s coat colour he is gorgeous !! You both did amazing c
Omg I would be DONE if a horse fell with me. I had a horse go on his knees arms that was scary enough. Kudos to you for the guts!!
🍕 piiizzzaaaa. 😂 Well done for getting back on. Falls suck but at least you and the horse are ok. Xx
Is he ok
I❤️the color of Casper ❤️🐴❤️
Equestrians are amazing they fall off but get back on no matter what. That’s a true equestrian
Been riding for 14 years. I started at the age of 2 and everytime I fell off there was not one time where I wouldn't get back on. I've had serious injuries and still got back on. Some people get there confidence knocked and don't bother getting back in the saddle for a while but that's understandable if it was a bad fall. In most people's eyes when you fall off you get back up brush yourself off and get back on and that's how I was taught.
@@heidismith6579 exactly how i was taught ive been riding since i was 4 and im 15 now, i just just brush off, get back on, give my horse some pats and some good boy and get back to it!
Ow j just saw the fall I hope ur ok don't let it loose ur confidence
