Sunday lesson. Usually low key. HW generally does not want to open up a can of worms and leave things unraveled before the horse weekend (aka Monday). So I look forward to Sunday lessons if feeling lazy and want an unchallenging ride, truth be told.
But why on this Sunday were we jumping big and technical? Who knows, but it worked out well. We did not open up the aforementioned can of worms. But there is always the challenge of hearing what is said during a lesson. Wind, truck, planes, going 12 miles an hour with a helmet strapped on. Sometime I mishear comments and directions.
We finished up over a 4 element combination, then a roll top with natural branch elements, and finished over a one stride oxer to oxer combination, and had to turn in the air over the first oxer. She followed ever cue perfectly. Good girl.
I THOUGHT I heard "blah blah blah cheap horses", and asked what are you talking about??? She was awesome. Actually, he said, "there are a lot of G-forces when you jump the big stuff." Princess calmed down after clarification.
