       Location: South Central Florida | I don't have a photo, but this happened to my daughter once. She tipped it going into it, and her horse turned so hard that it was coming at him and he jumped it. they made it fine even though he jumped it in the almost standing up position...it was pretty funny. She said she had no idea what he was doing till they hit the ground on the other side |

       Location: Montana | I've not ever had anything quite like that happen, but my horse doesn't like to hit barrels. However, if you cue her too soon, she will run over the top of it almost. We have never ran or jumped over the top of a barrel yet, but she goes sideways a couple of steps after hitting one before heading to the next barrel. It is funny, I'll give you that! |
