Amazing riding? acrobatics?

Here's some of the most amazing riding? - acrobatics? - that I've seen in a while.

I suppose if all you want is a circus horse... lol... just don't say the words "natural horsemanship" and everyone will love it :)

The horses just looked pissed off all the time to me.

I know quite a few trick riders in the US who can jump a roman team...heck, they even used to have roman riding races back in the old Rodeo days, during "down time"
Have also seen roman riders ride one team and drive another in front of them, and finish up by jumping the team they were on onto the back of a moving truck....Trick rider Leonard Stroud (trick rider from the 20's through 40's) would jump a roman team over a full sized convertable auto, with four passengers seated in it.
So I guess because I have seen all of this before, I don't consider that video clip "the most amazing riding I have ever seen"....but it was quite good...and it does take a lot of time and training to get to the point that young man is. Thanks for posting it!

Yes it looked like a few were about to eat him! I wonder what the shelf life is for this type of horse. I bet they fry out in less than a year.

Pretty amazing to watch, but I thought most of the horses looked pretty p*ssy as well.

Me too, especially the one darker gray. When he was running with it on the ground I thought it looked more like the horse was chasing him. :lol:

I also watched the entire video thinking, "He must sit down at some point!" I've seen riders who can do what this guy does, plus change it up a bit with actual riding as opposed to just stunts. Not that this guy isn't impressive.
