Your balancing/hanging off his mouth, Also your toes are twisted out too much - I'd say it's best to fix your position before you jump anything that high.

Coral - It's called behing honest, Iv'e jumped 4'6 on my BSJA Foxhunter mare and shes probally the most headstrong thing you can get, If you don't trust the horses jumping that high then practise over smaller jumps then proceed onto higher jumps.

Coral - I wasn't saying you can't jump, Don't put words in my mouth. And secondly If your horse always threw and kick and buck after every jump you need to work on your flatwork fundamentals before even TRYING to jump by working over poles and small [About 20cm] Crossbars.

Coral- Please feel free to call me "Totally wrong" In my frame of mind i'm correct and your the one in the wrong, And if your horse is so called "Enjoying it" you need to Discipline him, Bucking a problem that can have serious concequences. If you instructor had any clue the'd work to to heck on the flat untill your horses bucking problem was resolved.

Tuck your elbows in some more and it will be great! You could also be back more. An to Remi- her heels are supposede to look like that I show in Children's Ponies, and friends tha have been to ponyfinals, and my trainer's brother (who has a silver medal in the olympics) came and did a clinic and told us what heels are upposed to look like so please don't tell me I'm wrong. *NOT trying to be rude*

looks like you got in close. But still it looks like a decent jump. =) Has for the little fight you guys are having. =) I belive remi was just expressing an opinion in the beginning. I honestly believe she was just making sure you knew what you were doing because there are people out there that jump waaay too high without a clue. Nobody wants to she you hurt. =) SKs way of riding is not wrong but different from Remis. There are different opinion about how to ride, handle, and discipline a horse. You choose the one that is best for you.

Good work :) Release abit omre but its not too dangerous that you have to fix it, the horse is happy jumping it and theres no real strain on his mouth, well done for keeping your leg near the girth at that height btw, its something not alot of us can do, well done :]

Awseome jump, just let him have a bit more rein and don't lean on his neck so much. Otherwise, you look really good. As for coral and Remi's fight: remi is just saying wat would normally be true for a horse's discipline, and Coral is just defending herself and explaining how SHE was taught to ride. Honestly, no big deal.

Great jump, but here's my critique:You're way too far up the horse's neck, like you're throwing your body at him and trying to jump for him. Your toes need to come in and your elbows can't stick out like that. Other than that, you're looking straight ahead and you're in the center of your horse.
