Homemade jumps and one of Ted attempting to jump it

[Bettyboo222]

These are the jumps I made Poles are old ones that we got given and we gave them a re-vamp Sides cost me £9.33 for 3.

and a video of Ted, this is his first time over coulored poles and he didn't take to well to it, before any comments about weight, I weigh 8 stone and I have been cleared by several vets and physiotherapists to ride him. Click to play

*sniggers*

did you get him over it?

Nice jumps...

 

[Bettyboo222]

Ended up long-reining over it as he just got more and more stupid, that will teach me to jump without knee rolls/blocks

Lol little monkey!!

 

[Meowy Catkin]

Great vid.

Love the jump stands. I really should get into gear and make some.

My mother just spent a good 10 mins watching both videos on repeat nearly wetting herself

Ted says he doesn't like the new jumps, so you cave to go over them yourself first
Weve got some home made jumps too, never bought a proper jump in my life

You don't have to have a ground pole by the way...

Ground Pole - Had this discussion with my/our instructor, she said leave one out as she didn't want to overface him as it was so low.

Are the sides made of wood? I can't tell on my phone :-/

 

[Bettyboo222]

Yes, the sides are wooden

Makes me laugh everytime I see this! Thing is you never rally understand what it's like to ride ted until you have (and shamefully fallen off him) lolx

Wow! They look very professional!! Were they hard to make? How long did they take?

You might need to include making instructions on this post so poor people who can't afford Jump 4 Joy jumps (like me) can copy your lovely design!!!

Used these as a base design but used the sides of an old wardrobe for feet, Took me about a week (whilst studying for exams)

Well Done you- beautiful fall as well may I add
This shall inspire me to make jumps
