Jumping or Dressage?

[as sweet as hunni]

So, simple question really, do you prefer Jumping or Dressage? I had ago at Dressage the other day, and have got to say, I really thing me and Hunni are more of a Jumping duo, she prefers going quick against the clock and flying jumps than "prancing around the Arena" as I'm sure she would put it so Jumping or Dressage? and pictures if you got them!

Jumping but flat work is important to jumping so dressage gets a look in too.

Dressage. Horse likes jumping a bit too much for my taste

Ideally we'll do both at some point in the future.

When i was a kid it was all about the jumping. Then after a twenty year break and realising youth generally means you are fearless its all about the schooling now im older and wiser .... and not as brave so i would go for dressage now with a bit of jumping thrown in for good measure

I'm a showjumper at heart but green horse and bad falls dictate that I am more of a dressage diva at the minute.

Definitely jumping, although the flatwork is important too. I have a 14yr old Grade A schoolmaster who I don't think would be very impressed to turn up at a show and there not be any jumps...!

Dressage all the way for me ...I was jumping mad a few years ago after having a talented jumping mare, but I sold her and bought an ex-eventer who was very experienced in dressage, and well I've been dressage mad ever since! She took me through the levels. I now have a beautiful, very talented baby andalusian who is a little dressage star...but also has a hugeeeee pop on her!
