Eventers and Show Jumping

Eventers vs. Show Jumpers

In our sport, there is no off season. We don’t get jerseys. There’s no games. No drills. No timeouts. Our teammates are 1,200 pounds and we can’t speak to them. We practice for hours every day for two minutes to shine. Anything can happen, and we realize that. We’re ready for that. Evermore, we trust our partners, because they so greatly trust us. Two athletes, two hearts, one passion. This is our game, our sport, our time. We have disciplines. They are different, but we all share the same passions for it. No matter if it's Show Jumping or Eventing. We have the thrill and it makes our hearts skip a beat.  Eventing and Show Jumping is very similar. In Show Jumping you jump in an arena and jump and eight to fourteen jump course. Three round for one minute to show we have the guts to do that and win champion. In between the jumps we need dressage to stay in control. For Eventing we jump too. Another thing we need is dressage. Not just in between the jumps, but everywhere. We have a five minute coarse to show we have those skills. Its's amazing.  Eventers need the guts to do anything at anytime. We don't specialize in anything. They are prepared for the water the air and the ground. We let nothing stop us. Nothing at all. Instead of just jumping in an arena we jump in the field. Where the most severe injuries take place. We have heights beyond belief. The horses need the balance and the confidence to do this.  Jumpers don't have it easier than anyone else. They specialize in just jumping. They may not be prepared for going through the rough terrains, but they are prepared for everything else. Such as the pressure, as tons of people watch and the time tiks. They are prepared for the spook that makes them fly through the jump. It's a fun, but dangerous.  These disciplines are dangerous, but they have the thrill and the power to make everyone's heart skip a beat. That feeling is so good it feels like you just landed on a cloud and it's made out of cotton candy. To the smallest things like just sitting on a horse to just going to the highest you will never forget it. People say this isn't a sport, but their just jealous. They don't know the true feeling of flying through the air.
