Dressage Freestyle to Music Thread

While I agree with the sentiment that the Portuguese test felt like the best yet, he did have mistakes, kittle didn't, that said still feel like he should have had a better mark then 77.607...
 
Currently having a debate with my old music teacher about why the freestyle is not as boring as you might think and losing :o I just struggle to see how someone with an interest in music can't appreciate the choreography and performance :confused: Oh well he does like football after all (lost cause).
 
And isn't it, erm, 'interesting' that when the Judging Supervisory Panel alters Kittel's score, then it is for the better? How?!

I feel berserker urges and it is so early in the day.

Agree . . . and this test is boring me . . . and I have to go now - a friend needs me. Send collective HHO vibes to the judges to wake up and see the light before Fuego - and especially before Carl, Charlotte and Laura.

Laters peeps.

Is Judy Harvey's commentry driving anyone else bonkers? I can barely hear the music, her comments after would be great, but quiet during the tests.

You're loosing - because the music is sooooo awful!!!!!

Kittels' horse was on the forehand all the way through and behind the vertical. He should - technically - have been deducted two marks for every movement.

Small mistakes should gain a lead over wrong way of going - but, hey, superprix. Logic is extinct.
 
Stoopid question - are all scores back to zero now and individual medals just based on the Kur? :confused: (sorry at work & just logged on for a quick check up on what's ahappening)
 
bloody absurd, that test had nothing and got 78.928% - it was boring, lacking inspiration and many technica faults.
 
Let's be honest though, should kittle be competing at all... :) anyway I digress, the Portuguese fella was robbed! Not been very inspired by any of the other tests yet...
 
OK, I think I've worked out the problem with the judges strange marking here..... the judges are all tone deaf and would dance with 2 left feet and no sense of rythm..... although the riders choice of music isn't helping on the whole......
