Horseback jumping is a risky sport filled with lots of moving energy, and surely not always to the advantage of the rider. But those riders were capable of meeting all challenges even though the competition had an extra requirement. The fastest horseback riders with the least mistakes competed not only with their riding skills but also performing their riding abilities under unfamiliar conditions.
Riders were also rated by their costumes. It does not happen often that riders have to demonstrate their riding expertise while dressing in their favorite costumes. This event required required capable and fast horses, a focused rider wearing a creative outfit.
This horseback jumping competition was fun.
