K but the Evention TV intro remains the most legendary KZfaq intro/music video ever. And then there's the AC/DC background music... Such good taste.

We tried this grid today for our horses' first time ever jumping a real grid. It took them a little while to figure themselves out and where to put their feet, especially for the bounce, but, at the end, their technique in addition to their confidence was improved by a lot! Thanks so much for all of your helpful videos; so many horses have been changed for the better with these great ideas and schooling methods!

In the beginning of the intro I was like are my earbuds not working

These videos are awesome - I recently came across them and I am so happy that students (mine included) can go on you tube to study without having to open (or purchase) the books I usually recommend. This is a much better way to study, it's way more in depth than most of the books I have found so I love them - I am a show jumper/trainer and I love what you are doing here. What a great way to teach - I love it!

These videos are such a great help, I'm just about to start jumping with my loan who hasn't jumped in a few years, should be interesting! Keep up the good work, these videos are fun, professional and informative.

By far my most favorite video on KZfaq :)

Great video! Awesome song choices!!

Damn for a video from 10 years ago this quality is AWESOMEEE!!

I literally love your intro so much!!

These videos are amazing well done your very helpful thanks you really helped me and my horse Flash

Thanks so much! I'm really excited to try this out(:

I love this video. Sooo helpful. Great how you give different ways of measuring the pole/fence distance and you make it accessible to people with...' less sophisticated ' equipment. Start was a bit weird though :)

I LOVE THESE VIDEOS ! thank you for them!

we did this gymnastic grid! i love it sooo much! it is soo fun to do!

Haha, this helped ALOT, got my green ish (new to jumping) horse really thinking and upswing his muscle! We raised the bounce to two feet and the last vertical to 3 feet! He engaged it and kinda taught him not to rush (because of the trot poles he couldn't rush in at a canter) thanks! Keep going!!

You are the most amazing rider ever !!

Simply fantasmical! Mudpie and I definitely need to work on gymnastics, but I never had a clear plan of how to set up a nice, effective gymnastic. Thanks, guys! :D The Mudpie and I will totally try this next week! :D

I love you guys its nicely explained and your videos are always very helpful 😊 love the song you chose from switchfoot

Eventionerds. That's what I would call people who watch these religiously and spend nearly every moment of their free time (that they don't spend riding/at the barn) watching these videos, listening to Boyd Martin/Dom Schramm/Michael Pollard podcasts, and reading blogs. Not that I do that or anything...;) Great video! Keep 'em coming!

Awesome, hope this simple exercise is helpful or at least a starting point. Thanks

These are such helpful videos, also anyone have any idea on how many steps would trot poles be for my 19 hand

Wow! This vdo is very useful for us, thanks a lot!

I miss you guys!!!!!

Can you please advise what the distance is from the last trot pole to the first X rail? I'm guessing it's 6ft, but would like confirmation?

Omg horses and acdc in 1 video XD can’t wait to try this. Thanks for the video

Hahah I just love these videos! When you were saying how the distance should be about 4 of your feet, or one large step I was thinking to myself, "Well now I'm just going to have to add another step in there for my Clydesdale" And then it was like you were reading my mind, you said "Now obviously a shetland pony or a Clydesdale will have different strides" LOL

I thought that I was imagining that Back in Black song, lol.

I wish they still made these videos.

Can you do a video on how to start to train your young horse to jump please?

These videos are really useful and fun, you guys are sweet :-)

This helped me so much for my tb

Dom: *Looks at poles* "Perfect" Me: *Looks at Dom* "Yes you are"

@sailorpony12 I second that! I am starting back from a bit of a break myself. Need to strengthen my legs up for next show season.

Very use full

what is the distance between the 4th pole and the first xrail ?

Hey! Would it be possible for me to do the poles and the bounce part of this exercise trotting in-hand?

Hay eve ntchon tv I love your epsods

I struggle to get enough impulsion in my boys canter when jumping. He sort of just tales it as it comes. When i push him through a 4-5 stride comibination he takes the second jump either too close or too long. How can i get my horse to get up and go? He also has a monster big canter for a thoroughbred lol i am still learning the way he works but have a showjumping comp coming up and wants to have a chance in the ribbons

Perfect! :)

I tried this today. Let's just say I ate a lot of sand ;D totally my fault, next time I'll start with the last jump as just a pole on the ground. Great exercise though, I love you guys!

could u ask a question well I have a new horse that is only broken a month so how could i get it to jump Better hopefully I can answer it

I love your channel!!! Your horse is so cute!!! What breed is he? Would the measurements be the same for pony?

I should try this woth my horse x

Can you use poles with Tennessee Walking Horses? I have tried to use them before but because she paces its weird. o_O

:D As a side note, do you have any tips or exercises to help make lower legs stronger and more secure? Mudpie fractured his splint bone, and over the six months that he was off, I didn't ride and lost all the security I'd ever had in my lower leg. (see latest video for failish preview ;D) I ride every day, and have a lesson at least once a week, but is there any sort of exercise that I could do on my own to help it return faster? You guys are pretty much the coolest EVER, sooo :3

I hear Back In Black in the background. lol

Tried to do a one stride distance like that with my OTTB and he found a way to run out. Build this up bit by bit introducing each element individually. I wish I would have done that instead.

Are you using pixio camera?

would those measurements work for a 14.0hh pony?

Thumbs up for 2015 watchers!!

Often the trot poles when your horse was going into the bounce, he wasn't on the right lead for the canter. He fixed it after he got to the bertical

My horse is in field isolation atm but we can ride in that field. We aren't aloud poles or anything so does anyone know any exercises I can do?

There such a cute couple

Until you develop your ey using a tape measure is the safest thing to do in time you will see the stride as you ride the course

Fine-looking horse! Yes, 2018

what music in this video?

"You're an idiot! Go put on some spandex" haha you two are so cute.

Where did these people go??

ok, that's good to know. and I don't get the last part

How far from the last trot pole to the first cross pole jump?

Could you please use metric units too? I’m from nz and I have no idea how long three feet is lol

when i do my gymnastics with my mare, im told to stayin my two point over the small cross rails.

UGHH I'm trying to remember what song your intro music is from??

Ac Dc in the back made me love this video

My horse gets excited and that sparks my nerves. Any tips to overcome it?

how much space between the wood thing on the ground (dunno how it is in english) and the first X obstacle?

Yes, you would want the 2 large steps, or the 6 feet... :)

Are the distances smaller for a 13hh pony?

your horse is sou cute

hi there since u have horses and u have had them longer than me (I have only had one horse)could u give me a tip my horse keeps rearing and bucking its became so bad that I cant get on him in less I feed him a treat when he does it he swishes his tail or stomps him feet and pretty much says no I don't want to do this or work? I have tried lunging but he kicked me today when I tried he just doesn't want to work I don't want to let him go?? also if u have any bonding exercises u could tell me , I don't think we have a good bond he keeps takin the micky? please help?

how many centimetres long is a feet?thanks guys:-)

At 0:57 one of the bricks looks like a horse head from the nose to the cheekbone!

Australia...

😂😂 I love you

enjoyed the programme, but can you please advise people when they buy the barrels to buy plastic ones. A friend was using the old metal barrels and her horse slipped and put his leg through the metal barrel which ended up with him having to be put down. These accidents don't often happen but they can. Can you also advise people to NEVER use three poles on the ground, because this can encourage the horse to jump all three at once.

My horse can't jump, he has bone spurs in his front feet. What other exercise can I do???

BAAACK IN BLLAAAAACK

How many human footsteps for the 1 stride?

I ride a pony that Is very cheeky so she would probably stop at most of this even a smaller vertical how could I stop her from being so cheeky around this kind of things?? especially bigger jumps

that's me haha:)

2018 anyone???

I just got a horse and I'm schooling it to jump does everyone have any tips

PLZ someone help me.im teaching my horse jump but instead of jumping she just steps over everything

Where is the guy from? I cant figure out his accent.

it's so much easier to understand distance in meters, 3 big human steps=3 meters ;) But i guess it's different for people who learned this way :)

Thank-you for making this. Good job, but ya could leave out the music....

My horse is so flexable she somehow managed to canter the poles and the cat-leap the jumps!!!! And somehow i stayed on!

I was really excited to try this, but then I realised I've all ready down this at pony club...

please

Yes they would, my horse is 14.2 and this works for him, and stop saying your horse is a pony! xD

Thumbs up for 2018 watchers

30.48 centimeters are in 1 foot :) Unless your asking how many centimeters long an actual average human foot is :P

Sorry I can't do this because I'm western

What happened to u

I miss evention TV like where tf did they go

Looks like a professional video, but that music is awful.

I really wish you would get your hands out of your lap

That’s not gymnastics 🤸‍♂️ stop calling it that
