    Absolutley loved the new addition of the judges comments on the screen while doing dressage! Keeps me as a viewer more engaged and to try to see what the judges are looking for, please continue with it!!

    Pete’s filming of the show jumping was wonderful! I love watching Jammie in slow motion. Fab first XC of 2024 for team Elphick!

    LOVE the judges comments on screen, just would love some more time to read the end comment! (I’m too busy drooling over Jammy to read fast 😅) Would love a pre-Badders breakdown of all the different gear you use and why you use it! Bits, bridles, nosebands, boots, all of it! 🤩

    An hour-long vlog, Jammy looking beautiful against the green grass and yellow dandelions, the return of Pete's Eats, *plus* a great result - what a treat for all of us! Congrats and well done on dealing with less-than-optimal conditions :D

    Loving the judges comments Meg, I’m always interested in what they have to say. Also, Hoorah for Hobs’ commentary!!! And finally, well done on a blooming stinking 2nd place. So chuffed for you 🎉🎉🎉🎉

  • @helenbianchi2831
    @helenbianchi2831 5 месяцев назад +3

    It hilarious to see you chatting away after the cross country while your mum is working away getting studs out and washing Jam down in the background - I know that isn't how you operate, Meg, but it is cute how great your mum is at letting you do your thing while industriously taking on all the grooming etc

  • @carolynevans7676

    I agree with sunlight being evil my migraines have been awful as well as the moment but I think it’s down to change in pressure in the environment but you have been doing so well riding through them never give up what you love because of them ❤

  • @patbroekema6721
    @patbroekema6721 5 месяцев назад

    I feel so proud of you as I watch you gallop around the xc course, doing what you love even though you are nervous. Fear from falling off your horse is a very real liability that takes time and courage to handle. I suffered a brain injury from a fall 9 years ago. I have learned to be more careful and aware of myself and my horse and my surroundings while riding. It made me ‘ sharper’ which in turn has built my confidence. You’re doing so well Meg. Be kind to yourself - you deserve support from yourself.❤

    @MarionFeltham 5 месяцев назад +4

    Well done!! The mental thing about dwelling on mistakes is not uncommon, especially when you truly care and want always to do/be your best, which you clearly do. Maybe treat yourself the way you would treat others and be a bit more forgiving of your mistakes, learn from them, then let them go. We are always our worst critics. You are a really lovely rider.

  • @bethany6148

    I just love every single video you put out, Meg!
    I appreciate how much you give credit to your horses, but you have to give yourself some credit too! ❤ You rode well, the hiccups were not as big as you thought! 🥰
    I do love that the focus is on Jammie, and her performance, which is what I love about your channel - especially when in some upper level dressage it's all about the rider. Oh and "the horse" 😢
    Your passion and very obvious love for your horses shines the most, keep up the great work, Meg 😊❤️

    Well ridden Meg, in very sub-optimal conditions! Love that Jammy too! She's a star. You've brought her along beautifully and she's a super girl. I had you pegged for a better score than your "support" network, haha (but I love Hobbit and Pete and it's always wonderful to see Hobbit out and I love her commentary and just like that, Pete's become a proper cinematographer, but I'm super glad he's still food criticing on the side!). I also love the addition of the comments box during your tests! Great and innovative idea!

  • @evecory8946

  • @Golden1989-days
    @Golden1989-days 5 месяцев назад

    Just rewatched this vlog. What a brilliant start to your season plus a huge boost for Badders 👏👏
    I took on board your issue regarding the one chip in early on the course that took your attention.
    I just remembered some points that Lucinda, Piggy and other eminent riders have coached you with and I only repeat them to you to try and encourage your positive thoughts.
    So, as I recall, strong forward working canter, aim for the centre of the flags as best, let the horse read the fence and get involved when you know there are “tricks” coming up, shoulders back, head up (do not look down), heels down, keep your feet in front of your hips, strong fingers on the reins but don’t fix your hands on the horses neck, and keep very giving elbows.
    I believe it was mentioned jump one fence at a time and let go as soon as it is jumped to allow you both to focus on the next fence.
    You’ve done all the hard work and you are both looking great. Deep breath and kick on. Best of luck 🤞

  • @ponyparty28
    @ponyparty28 21 день назад

    true about needing to use the half-halts more effectively and accurately (timing is everything) and when you consider that Jammie's manifested coping mechanism for your habituative pulling is to use her old-Celtic genes and "plough" through your hand, this is where you need to listen to Simon's advice of using your body to half halt and give weight/seat cues rather than the hands. Use also your knees and the inside of your shins to stop/half-halt-weight-aid - we used to call this the "ski-legs" and it works wonders.
    The days of Jammie tolerating your go-to hands as a safety net are gone - she is demanding you ride better and elevate. You are doing well, but for the partnership continue to inspire your growth and healing you need to rise to this next challenge - or else stagnate and devolve to the level of your trauma. 💖 Jammie is your catalyst for change - and you will be a better rider for it and the newbees coming up behind her 🦄

    Meg and Jam, the GRAND SLAM 😊❤!!! The Talented Team. So very happy for U2, all that hard work pays off❤. Admirable. Thank you very much Megan for all your hard work and for inviting us to be a part of horsey life❤. You spread joy and goodness into this word, honesty, life as it is, with all the ups and downs. Love it❤. And that visual quality, as well as the quality of the sound in the vlog: WOW!!!! Well done Pete, SUPER 😊!

    Just watching and oooh I love the comments with each movement thank you Meg. Beautiful test - well done. I’d love to see marks too but only if you’re happy to share of course 😊
    Also a lot of respect for you vlogging with a Migraine. I’m just coming out of one and slightly struggling to watch this - but I can’t wait! You probably know this but attempting to avoid triggers- certain foods, stressors, and also your cycle can be factors 🙄
    Awesome job though! Can’t wait to follow your eventing journey again this year xx

  • @jjrides
    @jjrides 5 месяцев назад

    What a fantastic start, congrats!! I think the jumping was great, you rode to the conditions and what your horse was feeling :) And I know, comments on the internet, just take with a grain of salt, but something my dressage coach told me recently (and has helped me with every horse but particularly, control my bold, fairly newly off the track pony) is to half halt with their hind leg foot fall, either rein with either foot, to balance them and get them to sit onto that particular leg, and I cannot believe how much it has changed my riding (after 28 yrs competing sj/eventing) it also makes me stop pulling so much (and brings them back way better) because I tend to hold way too much, because I have to kind-of time the half halts to their rhythm. Anyway, sorry for the essay/masterclass, I'll shurrup now lol! CONGRATS!!!

    Try seeing a good chiropractor for your headaches. With all you do, it could be something in your neck, or the bones in your head (yes there are multiple bones in your skull! 😂) that could be the cause. Anyway, it would be an easy approach and easy to solve, if that’s the case, and worth a try. Hope you feel better!!! And congrats to you and Jam. She’s a gem!💎(Gemima! Haha!)💗

    @debbieredmon5063 5 месяцев назад

    Well done! I think you are right about the stickiness. It must have been a little scary in the beginning cross country. but by the end you were letting her out and both of you seem to be enjoying yourselves. And a second place! I think you are right too. Jam seems to thrive on the bigger fences and the more difficult questions. She can certainly do Badders 100.

    LOL Hobbit! She has such high standards that you just can't satisfy her! That was a lovely, obedient test. And she wasn't too forward at all (is it even possible to be too forward, as long as it's truly forward and not just rushing???). I already knew the score from the BE website, but I would have definitely guessed sub-30. GO JAMMY! And GO MEGGIE! Really appreciated you putting up the judge's comments, but please also include the score on each movement--I love to see that. 🙂
