Hi All,
At the end of the month I am competing at M-level at Ankum in Germany.

I have previously competed here and last time was quite stressful as they have a system where the top 4 (i think) do a second test.
The catch is I had not seen the second test and it was in German only!

To avoid this I am hoping to have the current german m-level dressage tests ahead of time...

I have searched online to no avail...

Does anyone know where I can get english versions of the current FN dressage tests?

Thanks heaps
 
Ok .. here is M5 , I am English , but have been here too long .. was struggling to remember what the English words were :-)
If you go to You tube and search M5 Dressur .. you can see a few videos of people riding through this and the others .. give me some time and will add the other 2

RM1 is in a 20 x 40 arena .. only double bridle and is mostly marked on the rider

M5 and M6 both in 20 x 60

just in case you are competing next year, there will be changes to tests as of Jan 1st

Hope that helps .. I would check out youtube too .. helps me to see people riding through the tests .. especially if what i have written is not that clear :-)

tell us how you get on
No idea where Ankum is ... ? I am not far from Cologne

That is pretty much allow the horse to stretch. German wants to see the horse chew the contact forwards, from the hand, whereas english normally just says allow the horse to take the contact forwards and stretch.

Ankum is west of the A1 a bit south of Vechta
 
Even though I'm absolutely not likely to ever need to know this, thanks for sharing, really interesting to see the difference between German and BD tests. this would be the level equivalent to what I'm doing now so I read those imagining doing it on my horse. Funny how you get so used to the British tests ;)
