So, you call equestrian easy?

You ask me what sport I do.

I'll say...equestrian.

You tell me, it's not a sport. It's easy.

It takes no skill. You just sit there.

You tell me, we aren't atheletes.

It's just a silly hobby.

But I ask you,

Have you ever trusted something so unpredictable? Who, with one misstep, they can kill us?

Have you ever fallen from 10 feet up going 35 mph? Brushed yourself off and got back in the saddle?

Have you ever raced full speed towards a solid obstacle?

Have you ever jumped something thats taller than you are?

Have you ever performed an intricate dance with a creature that doesn't speak your own language?

Have you ever perched yourself on two tiny stirrups while riding a racing horse?

Have you ever attempted a handstand on a unpredictable animal?

Do you understand the true bond required?

Have you ever had a teammate ten times your size?

 

So before you underestimate us...think to yourself.
