Ok, I know nothing about this part of the Equine world of sports. Are there special shoes on these guys? I have to ask before I form a complete judgement, because having these guys on ice seems SO dangerous for the Icelandic horse.
They have these things called snow-drift under their shoes. We put those on our horses every winter then when it’s warmer like in the summer we take them off.
The also move in special gate called tolt. Tolt movement prevent them from slipping, thanks to the angle at which the hoof strikes the ground (angle near parallel to ground) . They were specifically breed to move on ice without falling
Sylla Atlas it actually is super comfortable ! There are even competitions where you carry a full glass of water and you’re not allowed to spill it in full pace, this is fun 🙂
I'm sure the horses are wearing special shoes. Horses are shod differently for different conditions. There is a breed called "Paso Fino" that has almost the same gate. It is in their nature, not man made.
The horses are probably wearing shoes, but there aren't special shoes that make them do it, it's a natural gait they do whether they are out in the wild or captivated in human care, shoes or not, the Icelandic horses do it. And it's beautiful :o
@@ifjchsiwocjcjs4378 it's cold. So is the ground. Their hooves developed throughout their lives during traveling. Maybe they have some boots, but from what I heard they don't.
Tolting looks like the big lick gait people abuse Tennessee walker horses to do, it's absolutely heart breaking.. But I guess it's nice that this is a natural gait for Icelandic horses which is great !! And it's so cool too. Like if people wanted to do the big lick gait then why get a Tennessee walker when you have the Icelandic? And it's natural for the Icelandic to do it? Ya big idiots
Islandic shoeing for competion (and training) is very limited in weight, chains around the feed are forbidden. I think such a rule would fix the Tenessee walking horse. In my eyes, there is no chance for the big lick without the weights in the horse shoes. Btw: the big lick is way higher.
The only abuse i see is the giant bits... The gait is all natural and the shoes theyre wearing are little weights, ive held some and they dont really weigh much. The horses are fine and icelandics are some of THE most well taken care of and happiest horses ive met in the competition world.
@@DanishButterCookie have u ever seen pictures of the country iceland?? Seems to me like u havent seeing as Iceland is EXTREMELY green and grassy. Yeah winters are cold but its fucking snow not ice. Iceland aint greenland or antarctica its not covered in ice
The tolt gait is a natural gait for Icelandic horses, whether out in the wild or captivated under human ownership and care. Whether they have special shoes or forced into abuse to doing it, Icelandic horses do it and it doesn't bother them, they are also capable of carrying a large amount of wait, so a person riding one doesn't bother them either. The tolt is not mean :)
IT IS HORSE AND PONY ABUSE WHEN YOU PUT LEAD BLOCKS ON THERE FRONT HOOVES THAT IS WHAT MAKES THEM TROT IN SUCH AN EXAGGERATED GAIT!! THESE POOR PONIES/SMALL HORSES CAN NEVER BE WITHOUT THERE HEAVY CEMENTED ON FRONT BOOTS UNLESS THERE IS ALOT OF REHABILITATION!! DISGUSTING!! JUST AS ABUSIVE AS THE AMERICAN WALKING HORSE!!
Voll die süßen Isländer 😍

They're Icelandic horses. It's literally in the name.

ICELANDIC horses. Now you know?

@@narniabusiness4474 iceland isnt covered in ice stupid. It’s literally covered in green

SOOOOOOOOO GREAT.

Absolutely agree, the Paso Fino is a bit faster. They come out of the mothers doing the fast gait they gave. Look them up, you'll be amazed

It’s natural for Icelandic horses😊
@@ceo_potato2090 natural for them to run on ice where they could slip break a leg and have to be put down? I dont think so
@@ailaya5127 people break rules all the time
Oh that seems a little dangerous for the horse
Gracie Equestrian They're natural gaits, apart from that jacket someone put on their horse, it's perfectly safe
@@adamc3390 not the gaits stupid. Tolting on ICE

Icelandics are stubborn horses, those bits don't hurt if used correctly and its actually just for better contact
What about the ICE. Ice is dangerous
@@ifjchsiwocjcjs4378 horses are wearing mordax, studded shoes.
And theyre ICElandics. They literally grow up on the stuff.

@@DanishButterCookie u really think the ponies are born on ice live on ice and die on ice dont you? Do they eat ice too? 🤣
Delete shitty music, reintroduce original horses sound.
wtf
What?
Literally
i think it is mean

The rule is that everything you put on the horses leg can't weigh more than 250 gramms for 1 foot...
Obviously, you have no clue what you’re talking about.
@@annalinam7180 u can absolutely compare it. Plus the ponies are on ice which is worse
@@anniekhartog5805 i think they do. Maybe its u who doesnt know what ur talking about. Dumb
they're tölting, not trotting... it is quite literally a natural gait that they are born with. icelandic horses are gaited horses
