2008 SJ Nationals (Amateur A 1,30m) and final report (with a SJ video)

[UncleJr]

Poor boy, he was injured during transport on August

and had to rest three months (with a short interruption). However, we made it for the Amateur A Nationals

Competitions were speed 1,25m on Thursday, 1,25m on Saturday when we were placed 2nd

, and two rounds of 1,30m with a Jump Off (how is it called?) on Sunday when we were placed 4th

, despite being quite tired after competing for three days.
Clever boy, he has given me very happy moments

; some have seen a few videos of this year.
He is taking a well deserved rest now, and will begin training on February for 2009 season.
I had a friend who video the last 1,30m round on Sunday.
Thanks for watching.

Enjoy!
Merry Christmas to all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well done, great video and result, good way to finish the season! Doesn't compare with eventing though, now does it?

For competing only two; one for eventing and this one for SJ. I’ve been training many new and green ones; a total of 7.
2009 will be a lot busier; atm I know I’ll have 3 for SJ and another 3 for eventing

, and the green ones...
Ah!, and 3 students as well.

Agree 100%!!!

Adrenalin and excitement when eventing does not compare with anything!!

Fortunately, I have time and, ...still enough energy to do both!

...But still have to loose some more weight
