BEAR'S FIRST JUMP IN 3 YEARS!!

Published 2024-07-03
You guys have been waiting patiently for this moment—Bear's first jump under saddle since having a foal! And today is finally the day... with a twist. Instead of me, we have the incredible Ellie Fredericks stepping in to handle this spicy mare. Watch as Ellie engages flight mode on a very chunky Bear for the first time in three years. She has been jumping on the lunge to build a bit of strength before this.

We've had Bear for nearly a decade, and her fiery personality is just part of her charm. Rest assured, she's been thoroughly checked by professionals, so we know she's raring to go.

Join us for this exciting session, and see how Bear handles her return to jumping. Don't forget to like and comment below—what do you think of Bear's performance, were you expecting more spice? And as always, make sure to subscribe for more updates on our equestrian adventures!

    This was surprisingly sensible of Bear! Thanks to Ellie for taking one for the team 😂
  • @tmis111
    Ellie is such a credit to Lucinda .. she rides so quiet but her communication is clear ! Great person to start her jumping off x
  • @sarita873
    How sweet is the way Ellie always speaks to the horses?! Love it
  • @Ellie0427
    I will be very interested to hear how Bear is after this ride! Sometimes all we need is a rider with fewer "memories" of things going wrong to sit on a horse and knock off a little rust and then the discussions become much more amicable and much more orderly! She's still got it. And well done, Ellie! What good fun.
  • Wonderful! I wonder if her lack of “ping” is related to her lack of fitness or the fact that Ellie has no anxiety at all! Maybe a bit of both. We all know our horses feel our anxiety and it can ramp them up. Meg, your anxiety is understandable because you’ve been jumping The Pocket Rocket forever. Both Ellie and Bear are so brave in this!! It should prove that your Bear anxiety while understandable, may just fizzle out with all the different horses and confidence you have now!

    Ellie is just a dream to watch. I know she's been trained since birth by her incredible mum but you can't teach feel and her love and passion Ellis so uplifting. Being launched into nothingness!!!🤣🤣🤣 Bear would have been more explosive if Ellie hadn't unlocked those shoulders and neck. Pity 😂😂😂

    I really hope you reconnect with Bear Bear, she is YOUR ponio, you'll get there honestly 🥰 I had a simplar issue with my last horse, I'd had a tumblle and I didn't trust him any more even though he was absolutly fabulous, people used to ride him all the time and while I was chuffed that everyone loved riding him and begged to be able to, but also sad that I wasnt that person
  • @MarionFeltham
    So enjoyed this - after 3 years off, having a foal, and carrying a bit of holiday weight, thought bear did so well and isn't Ellie great. Confess I was holding my breath as she approached the first couple of jumps!
  • Ellie was just what Bear needed. She’s a BOSS and Bear looked wonderful ❤️
  • @beccalu04
    Ellie is such an amazing rider, loved watching that! Well done with all the work you’ve done with Bear since she’s been coming back into work, Meg ❤
  • @toodleloos
    bears little wild leggies 🤣🤣 she jumps amazing though and she seems like she was SUPER into it, like okay I know how to do this! she just needed a little rambunctious bravery for a session! Ellie's a real go-getter, I enjoyed these two episodes
  • Ellie certainly knows how to stay with a horse in the air; she’s an incredible rider.
  • Always enjoy watching Ellie . She is a supurb horsewoman. Excellent for Bear!
  • Thank you for all the effort you put into your vlogs! So grateful for making such a safe equestrian account online ❤❤
  • @manorhouseev
    Ahhhh!! Lovely to see Bear back doing what she does best❤❤ Ellie is a super rider!!🫶🏻🫶🏻
  • @shizam1400
    Ellie is a great rider. As are you Meg. She just got on board and did it. No history or issues. Bear is a feisty little mare on springs. Well done all of you 🐴
  • @rmfan2092
    Amazing how they go for a professional, eh? Very sensible to let Ellie have a go who is so upbeat and fearless. What fun to watch her work with Bear. <3
