Tokyo Showjumping thread

They’re probably punishing for us complaining about the dreadful Tony Blackmore impersonator yesterday ?

 

[Kat]

See this is better, green jacket, green ears, shamrock on his saddle pad, flag on his hat - clearly irish

 

[piebaldproblems]

Told myself I’d work today but here I am…

Discovery people, what language are you using? I’m currently enjoying a bit of Norwegian.

 

[Bellaboo18]

Lovely round by Darragh! Stood out from the rest so far!

 

[SatansLittleHelper]

Lack of sound is just too weird....trying to watch while doing other things so was relying on the commentary to fill in the gaps..!!!

 

[DabDab]

Now that was a class round. What an opener for Ireland

 

[asmp]

How do you get ambient sound when watching D+ on a TV. Any ideas - too quiet!

 

[dixie]

I pressed the middle button on my remote. Clicked on the icon of a message and a range of sound options came up on the right of the screen. It took about a minute or more before it switched so be patient.

Thanks. Unfortunately I'm looking on my phone as am at work. I get all the languages except English !!

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Bit heavy handed but clear

 

[Kadastorm]

I’m watching in Dutch, had to put some sound on because it was a way too weird with none ?

 

[humblepie]

Ambient sound here. Does anyone know if this competition follows the usual route so time will be converted into penalities and carried forward, so fastest clear has 0 points, next has say 0.4 points etc to carry over?

 

[Denbob]

Didn't like that water or his attitude to it

 

[piebaldproblems]

Think the Moroccan knew from a mile away that horse wasn’t going to do that jump.

It is called QiS or something

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Kat, I get what you are saying. I was being silly! There was me thinking of matching bandages etc.....

Clearly not a water jumper there!

 

[Kadastorm]

Oh I’ve switched to ambient, that’s better!

 

[humblepie]

Ambient sound - little flag shaped box in bottom right hand corner of computer screen, gave various options.

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Got different eyes

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Thanks HP

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Nope, not going to play today

It will show as a time score D Kenny currently on 82.01 etc.
So faults added to time.

 

[SOS]

Didn’t think this horse looked right in canter, don’t think the rider felt he did either.

 

[piebaldproblems]

Good that he retired him.

 

[Kadastorm]

The guy who didn’t make it over the first fence looked terrified!

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Eek, never got there, trying hard this horse.

Not a pretty rider

 

[DabDab]

Ergh, can't watch this one it is too horrible

 

[Michen]

Gosh it’s weird to watch pure sj after eventing sj. Eventing sj seems far more stylish and classy but then they aren’t ragging around after a time are they

 

[Michen]

Ergh, can't watch this one it is too horrible

Ah ok maybe it’s just this one then as I just turned it on. Refusals at Olympic level!!

 

[Nicnac]

OMG ambient sound worse. How can that horse breathe?

 

[Michen]

That was vile.
