WEG show jumping thread

[Kadastorm]

Who's watching?
I'm ill and settled for an afternoon of horsey TV. Love the Czech guy who although he had penalties was so happy with his horse giving him lots of pats!

 

[Kadastorm]

And oh dear, a faller and a broken pole 😮

 

[only_me]

Was not expecting that guy to fall! Bit unexpected and how disappointing!

 

[Lolo]

How are you watching?

 

[only_me]

The first part of the triple looks quite short!

Well done Sara ennis!

 

[Kadastorm]

BBC red button lolo 😊

 

[only_me]

I'm on fei TV as can't get red button

I agree it does look a bit short doesn't it?

A very good excuse to leave the ironing.

I didn't realise they have travelled all the horses an hour and a half to the showjumping venue. Given how hard yesterday was, if I was an owner I would not be impressed with the travelling, what do you think ?

 

[Lolo]

Please may someone post a link? I'm struggling to find it!

I wouldn't be impressed! Seems a bit much imo to travel that far after xc. But from all accounts it dosent appear to be a great championships as organisation seems a bit lacking for all involved!
That poor rider who got 44 faults, think he was just wishing for the round to be over!!

 

[PorkChop]

Super clear for Dirk

Lovely round by Joseph!

Agreed. I caught up with some of the coverage of the XC this morning and was amazed they were starting new horses on the XC with a hold on the course. Don't they have any communication out on the course?

Fantastic round from Joseph! Very well ridden and very well deserved

 

[Pebble101]

I'm watching on BBC Red button

 

[only_me]

I can't decide if the jumps are light or normal - they do seem to be taking a good rub but still staying up whereas some poles are falling with the lightest touch! What do you lot think?

 

[Kadastorm]

Yeah it's strange! There have been some lucky ones who have hit them hard but they've stayed! Lovely horse for Canada there!

Is the WEG website not updating or is just me.

I'm at wrk so can't watch the live feed.

 

[Kadastorm]

I'm liking this one too!

 

[vallin]

Watching on red button and not planning on moving

It is, but the scores are at the bottom, going up, rather than starting from the top like yesterday if that makes sense...

 

[only_me]

See that took a very heavy hit but stayed up!! (The purple fence)

 

[vallin]

Shame for the Brazilian rider as that was a nice looking round

 

[j1ffy]

The Danish horse hit it too. Maybe that purple one has deeper cups as the close-up shot of the last horse over the treble showed quite shallow cups...
