Galloping: How to attain a perfect position while galloping

Welcome everyone! This is the second episode in a series based in sunny Aiken South Carolina during the winter. Today on Evention we demonstrate how to attain a perfect rider position for galloping between the cross country jumps as well as the fitness track. Also we feature a new segment called "Schrammo Shout Out" as well as an "Evention Tip of the Day".

I didn't learn this in riding school. We learned that we have to sit down and like follow the motion of the horse. I can't tell how many times I've fallen off a horse while gallloping. I have something called the crystal disease which causes me to lose my balance every once in a while, this is why I've fallen off so many times. I stopped riding because I thought that I would never be able to truly enjoy riding a horse ever again because of this disease, but I've recently started horse riding again and I won't let this disease stop me. Thank you for great tips!

Honestly, I could care less how I look when I gallop. I'm having too much fun to give a crap! Galloping is amazing...

I told my friend I ride, and she was like, "So you race horses around the track?" :c

I had no idea they went to Sandy Hills! That's where my horse came from :)

Thank you so much, your videos are just incredibly helpful!
It would be really nice if you made a video about properly warming up, loosening and bending the horse. I know there are some tips about that in some of your other videos but it would be very helpful to watch a proper video!

I usually have to dig around for my braid yarn removing scissors but that twine thing is pretty handy! My barn usually has a hand rasp (or five) sitting around, and those work fabulously as well.

They are demonstrating the position not actual galloping

I love these videos :) I watch all of them despite what they are about! I was questioning whether to watch this or not because i dont gallop, but now that i've watched it, i am really watching it again :P
