[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's nice that unathletic wealthy people still have a way to compete in the olympics [/quote] Try it. Riding a trained and talented dressage horse is like driving a Ferrari with a mind of its own, while standing on a trampoline someone else is jumping up and down on.[/quote] This is an excellent description. I’ve also likened it to pairs figure skating, except your partner weighs half a ton, has an anxiety disorder, and speaks an obscure foreign language. [/quote] I appreciate these posts, as someone who knows next to nil about horses or equestrian sports, to see how much athletic prowess really goes into it. The riders make it look so easy. It’s hard to tell what’s going on under the hood, so to speak. [/quote]
