So... I just watched the second episode of the current season of Amazing Race Canada and, while I was at first _super_ excited to discover that hobby horse competitions were a thing when one of the challenges was hobby horse dressage, I quickly became disappointed whenI discovered that... it wasn't dressage. They did things like running sideways and jumps, and jumps while running sideways (which I don't think horses can even do?) I decided to see if I could find any _actual_ hobby horse dressage, and was very happy when I found this!
Congratulations on winning, you did super well!
she gets applause but, I do this in the street with My neighbor’s head and i’m the bad guy…?
You know what? Good on her! She’s out being active doing something with herself instead of sitting around being a couch potato with no ambition, I for one can see the effort it would take to memorise the routine and perform it with the kind of cadence and expression that a real horse would, good on her.
Yeah good for her that she never mentally matured and doesn't have self awareness and outer/inner object perception, and emotional maturity of 12 year old, this is a sport not a mental illness, so good for her for being active.
@@dapperdank3701 Chess isn't a sport either? Who does decide this? You?
Sitting on the couch, eating chips, drinking beer and watching stupid television series, is a sport? Right?
Anyone doing this in the US would be bullied beyond belief and that's sad. Does it look silly? Yes. Why does it look silly to us? Probably because we see it as something a small child would do. I wanted to BE a horse when I was a kid and my best friend and I played "horses" every recess at school. Consequentially, I was called Horsey by every boy in school through 8th grade. If you enjoy something that doesn't harm anyone don't let anyone tell you there's something wrong with it. There is some immense stamina and strength in what she did here in this video...coordination and memory too. So while it might look "funny" to outsiders, she is a strong young lady who isn't hurting anyone and is using her body in a healthy way. Naysayers need to just piss off.
It's obviously taking a lot of skill, practice, strength and endurance to do routines like this in pretty unnatural to humans leg movements, is it "silly"? I don't know, but is chasing a white ball around a baseball field or chasing after a torpedo shaped ball around a football field silly? nobody bats an eye about those.
I've seen model horse shows done like real horse shows, is that silly? I don't think it is, the participants start off with ordinary plastic toy Breyer horses and then customize and "kit bash" them with real hair, painting to look realistic, crafting and adding accessories, haltars, bridles and tac, and putting them in a realistic diorama scene and they are judged on all that at the shows.
In the same way the stick horses are obviously customized and "kit bashed" and even made from scratch I'm sure, so all that takes time and skills to make an attractive horsehead from fabrics and other materials, that's just the beginning- just the accessory to the whole thing which involves all the physical and mental work in the routines, training etc.
I think it's pretty cool actually!
This would be more entertaining if it was a Hobby Horse Jousting competition.
This is an actual sport. 😂 holy God.
Pretending to be a horse and hopping. At the same time she is pretend riding a horse toy, but actually she is a horse. What is this sport when you pretend to be an animal. Stupid
Meanwhile the US has cornhole, pickleball and competitive stuffing your face with junk food.
Im glad she didn't get bucked off...The lights can really spook a horse.
@@Goldrefinedthrufire you get freaky at the thought of a stick between your legs 😂
This was absolutely beautiful! You really deserved this win!!
You're serious. So if she takes a dump, does someone run out and scoop it up? I watched all of it. I saw nothing beautiful. And I'm glad I didn't.
@@bullfrogger1208 ok and? That’s your opinion. It was quite rude and also have you ever heard the saying if you have nothing nice to say then, don’t say it?? I’m pretty sure you haven’t so don’t even start you could’ve just gone past this video you didn’t even have to comment.
@@ILuvPopcorntheponywell technically you didn't follow your own advice either lol 🫣
It must have taken ages to teach the horse, well done for your patience!
@@Firefusioncosplays you ridicule yourself, just like you can ride a stick thing by yourself
Great job! You deserved the win! I subscribed to you I watched all of your videos! Good job I wanna come to Finland one day and join a competition! Keep working hard bravo 👏
super impressive. my cousin does this. you rock!
Good on them , looks like they're all having fun and not hurting anyone or anything.
You can see wowsers by their comments , 😁
Just to confirm, this is not a joke ?
You can check out the finnish competition by going to HummaHorses google page. ❤❤
It’s perfectly sane and normal, just like crystals, burning sage, reiki and anything else women believe.
Woooow this is impressive! I can't even do high knees for 1 minute. I need to get to this.
Ummm… no. You just need 15-30 min at home doing lunges or go to a gym and have a life
I love this!! Great job!
For all those negative comments, people please realize that this may look extremely strange to you because you didn't grow up around it. Maybe these girls can't afford a horse, maybe they like doing this. It's strange to me, and I admit that I laughed the first time I saw it, but I respect that this is what they want to do. How would you feel if someone made fun and called you a lunatic, mad man, said that you needed therapy, because the sport you played was completely new to them?
Actually I did grow very poor. I really could not afford a horse and no I cannot say that I have ever done anything this stupid.
As far as how they feel that I would call this incredibly stupid, I'm sorry but i'm not responsible for you people's emotions.
so i can´t buy a car i just take wheelbarrow and pretend its car ?
🎉i could never! You do it so well! I don't do the dressage but I do the jumping. Anyways overall this was amazing! Congrats🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Tried outside. My neighbor called 911 saying I lost my mind
Thanks for that,i can tell So far we dont have much laugh,but from this,i play the hobby horsing videos for like 40 peoples in the party,And we never in life have so much Fun And laugh from this,like Is the fking genious meme material.
Tu es magnifique et la musique choisie est la meilleur pour tes pas de réel championne!! (Im french, from Canada)
From Canada whit love ❤️
you were an amazing Bravo, you deserved this big win
Please don't compare this to rodeos in the south western United States. I count about 100 people in the audience including participants waiting their turns. Not a lot of interest for the "Championship"
Hey, I will never ‘yuck’ someones ‘yum’… but this is SO out there!!!!! Go you!!! Didnt even know this existed!!!!
It is! It’s super fun though, and it’s not even like we think the horses are real. It’s incredible to be inside this community
In the southwest United States, the rodeo competitions rope cattle. Except the cows wear the heads and for bulls they have horns. The cattle run around while the cowboys riding their hobby horse rope them.they use full size sticks so the rider can hold the horse while roping.
I actually rode a stick pony in the gay rodeo in Oklahoma city a few years back as part of a Sisters on the Fly parade! It was awesome!
What is with all the men in the comments trying yo find reasons to invalidate this? Y'all are awate that sports are all different and some focus on craft and technique over strength? It says more about the people who comment so critically than the actual hobby horse riders who are doing what they love and showing us the joy and beauty of something different .
The power! The grace! I cant imagine how many hours she spent to get this routine perfect. It tells such a story of drama, of redemption, of hope.
Nothing short of beautiful.
Seems like she just spent hours doing high knees while watching game of thrones
That was so beautiful😁😁😁😂😂😂
Woow! Jag blev ju tillochmed tårögd!🥲😂😍👏
Horse girl final boss
I can tell what moves she's doing, flying lead changes, extended trot and canter pirouette, for example. But how do they score the competitors? Is it like how they score dressage with real horses?
If you go to 7:00 it actually shows her scorecard so you can get an idea of how they score it
@@jessicag821 Can't believe I didn't see that before 🤦♀
Thank you for pointing it out :)
Good job! Congrats on the win
I don't understand how it translates from a four-footed horse to two-footed human but it looks amazing
As someone who does the sport;
Neither tbh 🤷 I guess the human legs just Mimik all of the horse legs
Do they still shoot them if they break a leg??...
That was amazing!!
do they realise that they are not all there,a six pack short of six cans,if we done this as kids we would never be sble to hold our heads up ever again, what do their parents think,if my kids wanted to do this i would bury my head in the sand from the embarrassment
If you were my dad/mom, I would be embarrassed for having a father/mother that hates on kids that love a sport
Would you be prouder of your kids if they spent their time online bullying and being hateful to strangers about something that doesn't even affect them?
@@CatHobbyHorsing obviously you don't live in the real world, fake horse head a stick where does that scream sport,silly woke rubbish,wake up
@@LaceyHubbard-ku3cz anyone that thinks its ok for someone to ride a stick with a head on it needs to be ridiculed, you silly woman
Grattis! Du ser mycket bättre ut än mig när du gör dressyr😅
I looked this up to show my dad and he laughed so hard. This is the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen. And people take this seriously? Oh may I add, these people have the audacity to say they are an equestrian.
I want to start an inflatable T-Rex competition. At least that would be interesting.
to all the people hating, take a moment to realise that any other sport, say football can be just as "ridiculous", like I'm sorry you run around and kick a ball and call it a sport? yes it is a sport, so is this, look up the definition of "sport". ah, you're too lazy? I get it, you're a couch potato, let me do it for you. Sport: "an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment." the hate this community gets is unnecesarry and quite frankly disgusting. if you don't like it, scroll past. All you're doing is embarassing yourself by commenting with no actual clue of what you're talking about. For people saying "and then they call themselves equestrians" that's because most of us actually are equestrians. e.g I do horse back riding, been doing it for the past 6 years yet I still do this as a side thing. It's fun, let people have fun. What happened to "do to others what you want people to do to you"? What happened to ignoring things you don't like? Clearly if you took the time to comment this interests you, otherwise you wouldn't have commented. Get a life.
abbiamo ancora una speranza .... che l'armaggeddon ci salvi da questo scempio..... chi ve stramuorto
Quite sweet but i don't get it. Could somebody please explain the thrill of this?!
It is fun for people to watch championships and compete. I do this too. It is really fun and not as competitive as actual horse shows.(i also ride horses in general this is just for fun)
1st you gotta take a hit off a huge bong and shotgun a beer then it will all make sense
❤❤❤❤❤ hollywood horses power soul spirit 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Man listen…I would’ve gotten to my 2nd lap around the living room before my mom would’ve pulled out a belt 😂😂 WHAT in the entire lily white lifetime supply of saltine crackers is going on here???👀😩😩🤭🤔 Pardon my immense ignorance on this matter, but I’ve never seen, nor have I ever heard of such a thing outside of watching my toddler do this whilst playing outside. Wow. Like, WHO decided that this should be a “sport”? I’m so confused.🙈🤯🤯🤣😭
It's just kids having fun and getting exercise while not being able to ride. Even while it's ridiculous looking, it sort of makes sense.
Ha perso ,, perché doveva cambiare i ferri al cavallo, e la rottura delle briglie ne ha devastato la vittoria 😂😂😂😂😂😂 ma siete seri.
Ditemi di che soffrite , il mondo è pronto a darvi aiuto
Im here cause i see it on american got talent
What is with all the men in the comments trying yo find reasons to invalidate this? Y'all are awate that sports are all different and some focus on craft and technique over strength? It says more about the people who comment so critically than the actual hobby horse riders- maybe theyre jealous?!
I could see in its face, that horse did not want to be there.
Why do I feel like we're all being Punk'd
I can't tell if she was doing big lick or it was something else that isnt abuse xD Great job though!
Tolle Leistung👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏💖💖💖💖💖🐴🐴🐴🐴
Isn't this something Monty Python made up?
The prestige of excelling at something utterly useless.
The horses would all be live unicorns if you went to this competition on acid.
I think the "sport" part of it has to do with how long one can hold out without laughing. And these people all appear to be pros.
Vera good performance 😊
That extended trot though
KN man köpa käpphästar av dig?
Today my eyes opened 😁
O woww😻
yes
It's VERY SUPER!!!! 🤩🤩💗💗💗😍😍🥰🥰💖💖💖💖😵👏👏👏👏
hur gamla? Jag är 15 o håller på:)
As an equestrian i don't understand with this really 😢😅
Ich glaub mein Traktor humpelt 😂
Die haben doch mächtig die Pfanne heiß
Wie kann man sich so zum Löffel machen ?
It looks hard but I'm shocked this is a thing.
I'm so confused 🤔
Human stupidity has reached levels I had never thought
gretings from me and good job😁
Just wait till it evolves into swimsuits
@@jimarcher5255 It is actually being proposed to be included in the Olympics this year.
They should wear helmets. Horses can be dangerous.
How can I take Part of it?
ppl call this a sport but still refuse to call real equestrianism a sport. unbelievable.
Bruh.. What?? 🤣🤣🤣
Each to his own😅
Wow😍
!!!??? we did that just outside in rhe garden when we were kids. so? they are so serious like athletics championships... 😮😮😮
BRRA❤❤❤❤❤❤
paljon onnea!!!
ROFLMAO!
Make bullying great again
WTF
I play game of thrones on the clello
😂😂😂😂😂
Provo vergogna per queste persone ... il mondo sta ridendo 😂😂😂😂😂😂
What have I just watched ???????
This is nonsense.
Fantastic I used to do dressage with a horse, but I went off course because I was stupid
Perché non usare una volpe, o una tigre ... congratulazioni... 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂quando crescerete avrete di che ridere , non siete voi il problema ma chi premia e giudica ... 😢😢😢😢
Cool!
As a person who loves to watch actual dressage I am very impressed how well are these people able to replicate horse movements. That passage and piaffe were absolutely beautiful!
