Sad, but also kinda exciting.. i like Eric Winter

He decigned the new Int. xc at Pontispool, and was one of the few to have a fall (or trouble anyway) at the new water! haha

do you think he will change the course completely? i think its quite exciting! but also sad as the blenheim courses have always looked pretty good to me! especially that bounce into the lake!

Eric Winter was also responsible for desiging the most boring and unimaginative course ever at Belmont Park last year. Lovely Parkland setting lets send them around and around one field.

I used to have lessons with Eric in pony club, nice guy.

Eric did the Pontispool course in Somerset and it is supposed to be pretty good. I know a lot of people at my yard use it regularly for XC schooling.

I'm pretty excited cos I used to work for Eric. Feeling very proud LOL
