Lol, T'Khasi favours number seven!

My old pony was the master of "Strike a pose and snort like you mean it", especially with drain covers!

 

[Bucks Fizz]

Haha very good. Horizontal teleport is the pose of choice for us also sometimes combined with the vertical teleport for good measure!

 

[ridefast]

Good one, my little boy used to be excellent at the sideways teleport

 

[khalswitz]

1, 2, 3 and 7 all apply to my boy... :S

 

[kerrieberry2]

my mare is 3,4,5,6 and 7 haha

I have to make sure I'm not riding behind my friends horse when he spooks as his style is 'Slam on brakes, snort loudly and fire out stream of liquid poo'

 

[starryeyed]

hahaa those are fantastic!

 

[TandD]

I think our spooking order is like this.....

Strike a pose..
Dressage wannabe..
Back up..
Vertical teleport with a cross of horizontal teleport....guess it's more of a diagonal teleport!
Panicking pirouette with a cross of a rodeo buck..
Finally a get the heck out!!!!!!

Haha brilliant! My eejit does 'strike a pose and snort like you mean it' swiftly followed by (and usually while I'm laughing and distracted) the 'horizontal teleport'

I had my first fall off of Jazz last week due to a Panicked Pirouette!

 

[RainbowDash]

OMG!!! I only need number 5 then I have the full set

 

[Tern]

I have a cob who does number three and a welsh D who does number six mostly. But nearly all of them are her

Ned did an impressive "The Grand Prix Dressage Horse Wannabe" on Saturday. At a guy in a wheelchair.

Shortly before it was "Strike a pose and snort like you mean it" at some swans.

I have a few cards from the above artist which are also very funny.

Lol. Horizontal teleport is an interesting one. Had that on my RS horse once. Only reason I didn't disappear over his backside was because I had a good grip on the reins also an ID xWB who disliked Shetlands and did the most amazing combo of stand & snort ,reverse at speed into levade & pirouette quickly followed by extended trot 'get me out of here' Takented horse !
