Wow - what a wonderful experience for you - for the first time riding side saddle you looked terrific. Chloe was so encouraging & loved that she was so proud of her lad for looking after you. Would be interested to see how a horse is introduced to being ridden side saddle - as Chloe said, a second career for a more senior horse. Well done to you all 😊
Tina!!! You are amazing! What an excellent job and you did yourself proud. It is such a difficult transition from astride to sidesaddle and you managed it with grace and skill. Looking forward to seeing Enzo in a vlogmas episode soon! Stay well and enjoy your holiday season with Susi, Emily, Banksy and Enzo..
Blimey Tina, you’re a natural! I can just see you and your Banksy cantering around a show ring with you in a velvet habit, both looking fabulous. I really enjoyed watching this 😊 Wasn’t Marley amazing? Beautiful boy ❤ And Chloe is a sweetheart too. Well done all xx
A lot of women use their sidesaddles for hunting. There's a saddler in Australia who makes sidesaddles. I'm so tempted. So buzzed to watch this video. Edited to add that I mentioned to my son (who is visiting) that I've been following you for so long that you are no longer the same woman that I first started following. You have grown tremendously in your confidence. It's awesome to follow your journey and I am so proud of you.
May I ask who makes them in Australia, I'm interested too. A lovely lady Wendy recently passed on (bless her) she was a fabulous saddler. I haven't found anyone else. ❤
Absolutely loved this Tina. Ladies sidesaddle is so beautiful. I truly believe you and Banksy would love it. Being older… not that long ago(my grandmother always rode sidesaddle)… it was considered inappropriate for a lady to sit astride a horse. EVERY horsey activity was done sidesaddle. In the 1980s we had several ladies that would fox hunt riding sidesaddle. I do remember showing when choosing to ride sidesaddle was an option 👍 I also remember in the showing the sandwich bag that clipped behind saddle was part of tack and judge would check… my friend always packed a pb&j 😊
Oh my word!!! Like how cute would you be in your cute frock hat and veil sat side saddle on Banksy!!! ❤❤❤ Now this is a fantastic idea for susie!!! 😂❤❤ You smashed it Tina ❤
Wow Tina your a natural side saddle you did amazing. I’ve never tried it but I wish I had now. I can’t get over how quickly you did it even omg well done you. Can’t wait to watch your friend riding Banksy side saddle. What a beautiful horse too.tfs🤗🏇🤗
Side saddle is the only discipline I’ve never tried, but would love to one day! You did an awesome job! I can’t wait to see Banksy go side saddle in the future 😊
Fab vlog😁 Marley is gorgeous, and well done Tina! I did side saddle in lessons, we just put the right stirrup over the saddle. Canter was scary at aged 8 😂 42 years ago. 😳 ❤
Love this! Wish I could ride side saddle again!!!! Well done for giving it a go. And I love that you're trying other equestrian disciplines - feel free to keep doing that too!
So lovely to watch this!! I know when my sister did side saddle the side saddle association and those that ride side saddle are so keen for others to start and so welcoming so it’s great you’ve shown it on your channel too ❤ Please can we turn Banksy into a side saddle show pony 🙏🤣
Tina, you did fantastic for first time side saddle and on another different horse. You should see if Banksy would take to being ridden side saddle. Great vlog as always.
She could be talking about my husbond.... - Not horsey at all, typical farmer, hates horses! 😂😂😂 Tina, you are are so brave!!! It takes both skills and fitness to achive what you did in this vlog!!! ❤❤ Chloe is really lovely and a good teacher and her horse super honest!!! Of course it didn't hurt that he reminds you of Banksy...... But you really impressed me!!! ❤❤ I used to ride sidesaddle for fun as a kid..... but we didn't have a proper saddle. Just played on bareback...... Now I would love to have a go in a proper sidesaddle some day! ❤❤
Well done Tina. I expect that was quite difficult. You did a good job. 👏 If you want to hear some different Christmas songs, listen to the Australian duo "Bucko and Champs" sing their Aussie Christmas carols. They're a hoot. 😂
Wow, you looked amazing riding side saddle, Tina. It's a far different equine discipline as opposed to the riding and eventing that you do. But, one that I'm sure you will definitely want to get back to in the future. Make sure you grab and enjoy all these wonderful and new experiences that you are offered. I could see myself riding side saddle, but I'm not sure if my body would allow me to. Sigh. But, thank you for such a wonderful Vlogmas Episode, everyone. I've enjoyed it immensely and was excited to see it since your Facebook Stories. 😊
I’m going to be stuffed if I ever do competitions as I can’t use long boots, My feet don’t work 😂 I use short boots because I can move more freely and actually squeeze the horse a little easier.

That was brilliant. Well done Tina, think you are a natural. It's such an elegant seat. ❤

Oh Tina this was so interesting and you did brilliantly. Your confidence has grown so much - lovely - and isn't Chloe a sweetheart.
Well done Tina. Looking great riding sideways. Chloe was really good at teaching you. Definitely hope you keep it up and try it with Banksy 💜

@naybellab2011 I was thinking of Wendy. Will have to do a quick Google because I think there's someone in Victoria. Brb.
No luck so far. But I am sure that they are out there. Have seen someone previously.
Love this so much! What a feel good session for everyone ❤
I think it might be my favourite vlog to film in a long time, felt very privileged to ride such a gorgeous boy xx

I’d love to ride sidesaddle and yay for Leicester my home town xx
How do you give cues for dressage? I've always wanted to try a side saddle
Wow, that looked awesome ❤

That was awesome, you did great!
Well done.
Thanks xx
Really enjoyed watching and you was epic well done and it's great trying new horse sports
Glad you enjoyed it xx
My suggestion is that you will try western riding
I love the idea of sidesaddle. I doubt I'd ever try it but it sure looks fun. What does her FIL have on Christmas day that she thinks is disgusting?
Blancmange! He has it on his Christmas pudding 🤢
@@chloemarshequestrian thank you. My American brain can't wrap around either or the combination. I don't think we have anything similar over here.
I’m going to be stuffed if I ever do competitions as I can’t use long boots, My feet don’t work 😂
I use short boots because I can move more freely and actually squeeze the horse a little easier.
First!!! ❤
First! ❤❤
