Newfound confidence in jumping!

Solly Jumper · 05-20-2006, 09:56 AM

I've been doing more jumping in lessons and I find that I have so much more confidence now! Since my fall off Tobey, I've been really nervous with jumping, but I can really see a boost in my confidence from riding Jessie. My position is definitely improving, my timing is pretty good and I think my release is good over the jumps too because I haven't been pulling on his mouth on the landing like I used to.

I'm just so happy.

That's great news! Sometimes it can be really hard to get your confidence back when something goes wrong. I'm glad to hear that you've been able to get past this and are improving by leaps and bounds.
