Flynn's first attempt at jumping

I had lost a lot of confidence on my previous horse, so decided at the last minute (literally) to drag Flynn out of the paddock and take him instead to the Adult Ride jumping lesson with Kirstin Kelly. I'd only had him 6 months at this stage & hadn't done anything with him other than hacking. As you can tell, Flynn thinks that yes, the jumps are really & truly going to eat him & must be cleared with as much air as possible between himself & the horrible stripey poles.




After a little while he decided they weren't quite so scary & starting jumping more calmly
