Could be because I have only been riding for a year consistantly and have never attempted more than a raised trot pole. So I can't say I know how you feel...expect I know how it felt to watch my daughter go flying a few times!<br /><br />Hope you are feeling better and indulging in hot baths, chocolate, and wine :)Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10313417800020012776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647406862592675556.post-74612905089097063892011-11-29T10:52:35.566-07:002011-11-29T10:52:35.566-07:00Indeed -- BTDT.

Lots of ice. <br /><br />Count me in the "flying monkey" camp, too. If I cling like a deranged monkey, I tear my shoulders up, as proven by my torn-up shoulders. ;) <br /><br />Anyway, take good care of yourself!

I'm glad you are ok and hell yes, I bet Izzy rocked that line of jumps:) She does look like a million bucks, too. I would have done the same thing with lunging in that corner, and good for you for waiting for your helmet.
