Totilas Freestyle Tribute - the whole stick horse performance

- In case you missed the stick horse performance at our Christmas Party 2009. Here is the whole test - an adaption to the original Totilas freestyle that fascinated the whole dressage world for 2 years. This is a tribute to Moorlands Totilas. When you don't have a horse like that stallion in your barn, this is what you can do to experience what it must feel like to ride a freestyle like Edward Gal and Totilas. This is as much a tribute to the horse as it is to the rider, as well as to Joost Peters, who created this freestyle.
what's fabulous is watching how hard it is for a mere human, even one who knows the horse's movements so well, to do the same moves! I've heard this is also a fun hobby for kids who don't have real horses.
swordwhale1 It's not only for kids, i know some over 16 year olds who take it seriously
you can't be serious??? this is a skit from Saturday Night Live, surely.. stupidest thing I've ever seen
No it's real! They are making a documentary about the girls in Finland who do it. Super weird lol.
Finland must be a very, very boring place...
swordwhale1 he is emulating the real horse movements really well
I wish my horse could do this.
What is the stick's pedigree?
Lmao 😂😂
Woody Tree x Cotton Cloth
WAIT YOU HAVE A HORSE
I'm so happy I'm not the only one who does this! XD
I love this guy, seriously.
I just found this and I can't stop laughing. Every time I hear how kooky the US is, I find stuff like this.
Oh my goodness this is so cool...now I don't feel quite so weird. I have a tendency to prance around like a dressage horse but there is no way I could last that long!
And here I thought all English riders were snobs. This was funny!
hahaha lol this is great
Haha!! Where can I marry this guy? he's hilarious! ^^
i keep thinking that he has really good expression and i catch myself and scream
*he does need to work on his canter though, he's not sitting back and lifting
and for his i think second extended canter he really needed to collect, collect, collect *then* explode
but great flying changes, solid
see, you couldn't see much difference between him going through the corner where he should have been collecting and to where he was extending, which should have used just as much impulsion as when he was doing his flying changes
*his flying changes omg, great impulsion
*hooooh boy what am i dOING
Not so fun. What are so fun with hobbyhorses? Its a sport. We jump up to 1,20 m and train up to 10 hours i a week...
Why do you need this stick for sport? Why don't you jump just like a man?
Realy
It’s not a sport
Exactly it’s not a sport
@@jilliantheequestrian8080it actually is and has been since 2012
Wow this must have been exhausting! I used to do this in my room when I was a child XD
I remember riding my stickhorse when I was a little girl. My mother would break everyone my father would buy. My father kept buying them for me. I cried through this whole video because people would laugh at me and now I hear it is a big thing in Sweden.I have worked with horses my whole life and wouldn't change a thing.
I do this. I take my horses to school. And I live in Sweden. Someone laugh at me. But I dont care.
ludde hopp same... But I have live in finland
What if you could change your childhood so that your mom would stop breaking your toys? Wouldn’t you change that?
hilarious, Ohmygosh but... he's behind the vertical !!
alsosusieq2 Susan totilas was it too
And I totally did this as a kid, even though i had a pony... I need to go build a new one now...
OMG I don't think I can stop laughing! For all of you who think it doesn't take stamina and strength to do dressage....this proves how fit you have to be. Thank you!
What the hell is your problem?
Lorna Price Yeah, maybe cos we're not fucking horses
Diana Hilliard Sammmeeeee XDDDD
Omg stfu. This is not a sport, its sad. My 5 year old neice does this around the house
Unbelieveable! His fitness level is fantastic! Marvelous! Great fun!
Wow! That rider has some mad skillz! :o Crazy!
whahahaha!!!! wtf is happening here!?
Yes its baby tink dis humans cryze
english riders dont look ridiculous, its called fabuolus. i feel sorry 4 u.. well.. u cant even stay out of a cool video without comenting shit! stay out of it!
I never knew my stick horse was so capable. I’ll need to practice. This was adorable and he’s really fit. Good job👍💕
Lovely, sensitively "ridden" freestyle ;) Hey, anybody brave enough to do that in stiff tall boots WITH a stick between their legs deserves a medal. Especially in that beautiful canter half-pass and the extended trot. Of course, the "free walk on long rein" was the icing on the cake :D Hopefully somebody let him use a hot tub and an ice pack afterwards. I bow to the master. You rock.
😂😂☕☕☕typical woman, go to octagon and say it there
Dear horsecrazy4011, you have your own opinion of how you see the english riders, and that's your right I guess. But do not make fun of us and call us ridiculous. I have been riding as long as I can remember and have tried it all. Western, dressage, jumping, racing, you name it I have done it. While I do not like everything I respect other people's choice even if I may not agree with it. You have tried english and didn't like it, I've tried western and didn't like it. Accept and move on.
I bet he got dared to do this
I... don't understand....
This is how I learn dressage tests... except on a plush horse around my living room. It's very tiring
Me too.
I honestly have no idea how he kept that blanket from falling.
Carpet tacks
What was the name of this music ?
Love this video, but miss Totalis too.
RIP to the one and only 🐎🐴🎠🏇 ✌☮ 🌎.
Lol he even has his white saddle pad XD
why would anyone down vote this? it's brilliant!
Because it's bloody ridiculous.
He's a adult man prancing around on a stick ffs..
It's pretty awesome shouldn't take yourself so seriously
It's a self-parody, ffs. Did you not see the video insert? You must be fun to live with, dragondov.
The hobbyhorse riders 😑 its a sport, i dont understand what so fun with hobbyhorses...
This is great, potential to go viral... 3 cheers, lots of fun!
Props to you good sir! It is NOT easy moving around in tall boots in arena sand! Well done!!!
This gives us humans a perspective on how strong horses are from watching a human run the same exhausting pattern.
And that statement explains why horses were used as a work force in the mines, fields, army, transport etc etc before they invented even stronger machines to do that job. Fact is the German army still used 700,000 horses in 1941because they didn't have enough trucks for their logistics. Oh, and when they ran out of fuel for their trucks and cars during the war... the horses got it even worse.
Last of all at marathon distance an Olympic runner will still beat a horse. This has been proven. When it comes to training several times beyond their born normal limit human are superior to any other species on Earth.
where do i sign up?
What....the...fuck?
Stu B this is a joke but real creeps really do this😶
@LilMissDressage He was making the horse stretch "long and low" for the free walk! hahaha
soo....this means i've bean doing this kinda freestyle all my life? and not even KNOWING there is a "sport" (if caled that) out there specializing in my horsey movements!!!??? oh my god.. this..is EPIC
Says the slumpy Western rider :) This was just a bit of fun, seriously, don't ruin it for everyone.
This is awesome! Almost better then with a real horse lol and BTW @horsecrazy4011 English is good 4 u it teaches good balance and and how to communicate well with ur horse with out all the kickin and yell in some ppl do....I ride English and western their both great (and fun!) And as for the helmet thing u do t have 2 wear one ALL the time or tight clothes... I ride in a skirt! Not try in so start a fight but that's what I think...
Can't believe he remembers the whole thing..?? I would have died half way from lack of breath... :-P Amazing!
This. Is. Beautiful.
This is hooves down the best thing I've ever seen. EVER.
Hahaha its baby tink omg😅😅😅😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
This is some Monty Python level stuff here!
here because of menoulous?
Jack cummins me
nailed it sir!! good show!
I give him credit for doing an extended trot in those boots!!!!!
Jetzt ist es Hobby horsing ! Ein richtiger Sport
Carlotta Odin Nein
Der Celebrator Doch
Google doch mal 😉
very: awesome- dressage- grand- prix: uniform
This is by far the best,and funniest,thing I've seen all year.I love the way he never lets go of the reins...I nearly choked laughing at the first extended trot--priceless.Love the whole thing:)
Well ridden! And what a sweet horse, so obedient and willing. You had to be exhausted after that lol
They need a jumping version of this XD
It's so cool to me that I guy, that has probably never done this in his life, can mimic a horse's movements so nicely!! It shows how much feel he has....amazing!
This guy is fantastic. He has to be in great physical condition. I love his extended trot.
HE HAS HORSEPOWER. :3
*That extended trot tho*
Hé didn't go into the corners... Re-do EVERYTHING !!!
Max Shriane 😂😂👍
Could show more difference in the extension, but fantastic changes! Hat's off to the 'rider' - best piece of entertainment I've seen in months!
This is HILARIOUS!
Einhvern veginn fyndið😅♥️
If I run 1 round I’m totally exhausted 😂 respect for this men ahaha
Thats actually better than the real thing. PID's are not felt by the steed and the rider can actually take the credit for the effort. Give them all stick horses and you can rollkur to your hearts content.
Gotta give him credit for running in tall boots, with spurs and having a stick between his legs.... Absolutely made my day..
WTF it’s wrong with humans race? This is some kind of vegan sport?
OH MY GAWD, i cant stop laughing, i came from Raleighlink14 Horse-Hobbing video lol! i died, Well at least humans can see how much horses do for us, They are amazing and you should respect what they do, This was hilarious!!
who else was giving the same ques on there couch while watching him?
wow, he must have been in an incredible condition to do such an exhausting preformance.
WELL DONE! :D
you may not think it's "traditional" or you may just not want to ride with a helmet but when you fall off your horse and crack your head open and die I am going to feel no pity and say "I told you so!" In dressage the traditional thing is to wear a hat like that guy is but MANY dressage riders ride with helmets! not a lot of people these days go riding without a helmet on their head. you would me smarter if you did wear a helmet!
u don't have 2 wear tight clothes, u can wear a pare of riding pants and a sweater. and u dont have to be a dressage rider to be an english rider! i jump and do dressage without having to sit like a stik, and btw you should prob try english riding before writing something like that.and you can smile whenever u want :) it bothers me when peoples say things like that... r u even a real rider at all?
Those boots look like they start to hurt half way through, by far the funniest thing i've seen in ages XD
ok good im not the only one who does this xD its only because i dont hav a horse. my stick horse is a 6 year old bay hanoverian mare named Whisper. actually, i just came back after a cross country competition in my backyard. whisper jumped the course beautifully, but we accidentally left out a stride at one of the jumps lol
This just made my afternoon! And now I want to try that with my stick horse.....as soon as I find it again. :)
Do you know that you really have talent for that? I do competitions for hobbyhorsing and yoy really have talent for that drassage piaff and trot👍🏻😁
I want this horse!💓
Talk about fantastic. *chuckles* Gotta agree though, he must be in -amazing- condition, you can see the sheen of sweat on the horse in some of the closeups, can't imagine how winded this performer must have been when it was over. :)
if you get a horse used to a myriad of things that horses are normally afraid of, then your horse will not spook i garentee. he will trust you. another reason horses buck, or throw riders is because of bits and spurs and whips and any pain related tools. i cant believe how many people defend bits. a bit is a peice of METAL wich is made for pain compliance. spurs where originally made to roll up the side of the horse wich tickled the horse. nowadays, people jam them through horses shoulders
im sorry about what ima bout to say but this is just what i see at my barn. all the english riders use harsh bits (or any bits at all) and they dont concentrate on the task that they are given. me personaly, you can learn to comunicate with your horse in any riding disipline. the riders dont comunicate with the horse. when the horse does something undesireable, they dont take the time to figure out what spooked him, they just beat his ass with a crop
Ok so little babies have to stop crying and saying that this guy is an idiot cus this guy is an actual dressage rider that was given a stick to do hobbyhorsing just for fun and as the title says its a “tribute” to totilas. So what could have they done instead of hobbyhorsing if they did actually dressage they would have been the next totilas..just think before u comment.
Sorry for the bad English its not my main language.
Right I'm not being funny but this is just ridiculous.
And I'm not being sarcastic unlike half the comments
yes they are, they are weird. and stupid. if you dont want to wear one when your advanced, then you shouldnt be forced to. and that is exatly why i switched to western jeans, long stirrups, awesome hats, and a peaceful way of going about things (most of the time)
@ZebrasAreAwesome011 I used to do things like that when I was younger, I'd even practice vaulting skills on the back of my parents' sofa. Now I have a beautiful mare named Sparkle and compete in FEI events. Keep your dreams alive! if you work hard enough they'll come true!!
I'm so impressed and entertained! What a workout this is to do on foot! I'm glad he pats the horse at the end :)
very nice performance! :-) and the guy looks like the perfect boyfriend for a rider: he is sporty, likes horses, good sense of humor, know how to dress well.. CAN I HAVE HIS ADDRESS? :-))
I do this.... But on my hands and knees. I know every gait there is to know in dressage. Sometimes I will even compete against my brother in a dressage show. I ALWAYS win no matter what!
o please ive been riding before i was walking. i tried english and i didnt like it. mostly because of the requierments. i am a cowboy. i ride with loose reigns, relaxed and no helmet(i cant stand those damn things. good horsemanship will protect you)
i love this!! although... his passage was a bit rushed and he was slightly ahead of the music ;) hehe!
i'd love to try this with Blue Horse Matine and Fuego's music too.
The people who shut down the insane asylums are to blame for this madness
The whole world is becoming an extended episode of Monty Python
Stop making a joke out of this. Your making the ones that actually try look bad. 😑 it’s a sport you know and you are just making it look bad
That would be completely exhausting. This guy is pretty fit, but he can't sustain it. 4 legs would help
Gosh that guy has some energy xD
Well, as long child is not crying it’s all good 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
actually in high level dressage many riders do ride with helmets. Though you don't see it a lot, people are starting to wear them. :)
xD this kind of entertainment is hard to find anymore in these days :D
haha i love how his gaits gets more and more unlike the horses haha must be a little tired after all that extension lol nice legs :p
this is my all time favorite dressage video hahaha love this!!
helmets are personal prefference, i dont like them cuz they are untraditional to western riding, but if other people want to wear it, im not stoping them
I know this question has to have been asked at least a 100 times, but what's the title of the music playing in the background?
Lol way to brighten up a day! And a week! And a week with two chapter finals tests in algebra and civics! This is genious!
My daughters and I used to do this; in the riding ring ; before there was ever a sport. Sometimes, I was the announcer and they were the horses.
Wow he has a really Excellent physical condition. Its hard to do this without stopping
Ale śmieszne, Jezu. Hobby Horsing to zwyczajny sport? Co wy do niego macie? XD?
