I described this picture to Betsi when I was telling her that Jimmy thought the jumpers last summer were the best thing that ever happened. I didn't "practice" any jump off speed over fences whatsoever before I brought him, just always asked him to jump around clean and politely. However, when the speed portion of the power & speed kicked in in this class - his first ever time in the jumper ring - he just got lower to the ground, like a race car, and rocked it hard. He jumped and turned and galloped and was SUPER clean. I love remembering this day.
***EDIT*** I just watched the video of us in this class - this photo is the result of him getting himself out of the way of a pretty deep chip. I kept looking at this pic thinking "he doesn't look as tidy as usual..." LOL. Pretty dang tidy for getting out of a chip!!! LOOOVEEE HIMMMM
