This whole time watching...I just get "novice acting like God" ringing in my ears. I'm no jumper, but her seating felt... sloppy? She seems very unsure of herself the entire time. I don't know, all three video's left me feeling uneasy towards her.
1. There is a difference between putting boots on backwards because you are aware that research has shown that wrapping/booting 'tendons out' doesn't particularly make a difference if you wrap/boot well, and just plain putting boots on backwards.
2. Oh, sorry, my bad. She's decided to put them on backwards, try her hardest to bow the tendons by twisting the pad meant to cushion interference from the other hoof to the front, and then crank them as tight as possible just to make sure she's bowed something.
Video 2 would be more accurately titled, "how to send your horse to a jump behind the vertical, on the forehand with no pace and STILL miss your freaking spot and get left behind on the honest jack-in-the-box move your horse is forced to make while you yank his mouth and slam his back." Oh well. At least she's not wearing a helmet.
Video 3 would be more accurately titled, "don't do mushrooms and YouTube. Just don't."
