Anyone else enjoy it? I have only ever done it with this particular lesson horse because I felt so safe and confident with him. I think it might be quite a while before I can do that with my 4 year old OTTB mare...ouch.
Love it! Don't really do it anymore cause my horse has insane wither and a bit of a nut haha But did it all the time on my old horses Red and lolly and my mates old horse Savvy! Was soo fun hehehe highest I got was about 1.05m I think which was on Savvy and Red =D But Lotto was only 3-4 when I had him so jumped him smaller.
I used to go bareback all the time. I loved it. You have such a better connection with the horse without the saddle. Me and one of my friends at the barn used to love taking bareback jumping lessons together. The trainer would set up jump courses for us and loved to throw in rollbacks and sharp turns etc to try to make it difficult for us. The courses were all 2'6" -3'. Some of the boarders there thought we were crazy lol but we loved it. I just wish I had pics
