The reason why many dressage riders will be falling off their horses

Jean Bemmelmans demonstrated this exercise at the BD convention

which he did in trot and canter, including flying changes in the canter while leaning backwards to push the tail down...now you know why loads of dressage riders will be falling off their horses this week!

I tried that on my older hose this morning - he wasn't very impressed - not had the guts to ty it on my young one though.

I can do that with mine. Albeit not half as prettily or in canter. Does that make me a PSG standard rider?! *Is ever hopeful*

Let's hope this isn't a cue for a gadget designed to 'push the tail down'. I'm visioning ropes and pulleys and 4"x2"s already.
