Go Sarah! Go SmartPak! You guys are the best!

Growing up, we never really had a mounting blocks available, so ground mounting was most often the only option. My horse was 17hh. I was VERY good at ground mounting! Plus, this was many years ago, before anyone thought about the health benefits to the horse, so only lazy people used mounting blocks.

You know a rider when you watch a video about them and it’s mostly about their horse😂❤️

As someone who's never owned a horse, i was really surprised when she said he first horse was still alive!

I'm autistic and I started riding therapeutically about 7 years ago. I now ride every single week and am on the verge of my first horse. I'm 14.

I love Sarah she's so funny💙💙😂😂😂

I loved this video. It's amazing how smart and loving a horse is! When people say riding is easy, I wonder if they've ever ridden and if they did, was it just an anybody can ride horse? Also question what they think riding is? I can't stand people who think horses are dumb because horses can be trained! I know how smart and loving they are!

Not always; I don’t use a mounting block to mount, as there’s really no danger in NOT using one. That’s just riders being lazy because they have “tall” horses and “stretch their muscles” if they mount from the ground. You ALWAYS have to be able to mount from the ground, that is why you do it daily.

She's so funny and she's amazing and I started riding when I was about 2 or 3 years old 😄 and I have a 6ft thoroughbred mare named Gracie 😄

Your horse (Cody) seems really sweet!

I was taught to ground mount as a kid but that was only on ponies. First two riding schools I went to had us kids mounting from the ground. It was my third riding school when I went as a teenager, I started mounting from a block as I started riding bigger horses.

great interview! Makes me want to work there :)

I MET THIS GIRL A WHILE AGO she boarded Cody at the stables I ride at for the longest time. ive ridden him a lot he's amazing aahhhh I miss him so much.

Keep up the great work

My first horse is named Cody! He is a 14.1 and 3/4 hh paint.

Your old chestnut 16 hand QH looks just like my 16.2 hand QH Brownie!!!! I don't dare ground mount him I'm only 5'4 I'm not even going to try. He's a good boy if I don't have a mounting blocked I usually have a round bale I'll ground mount him with, or a truck hehe.

Sara your my fav out of SmartPak you make me laugh so hard

Sarah’s AWSOME!!!!

I want to work at SmartPak!

Sara’s my favorite😂💕

Does that mean Cody was 25 when this was filmed? If so he is 29 now!

I’m in 4H!

I love smartpak

My 10 year old gray thourobred was terrified of the mounting block when I first started with him. Since then he can stand next to it but he hates them during shows. The little POA I'm working with now is terrified by it too.

I see Sarah, I see a horse 💙

I didn't even know that mounting blocks existed until I changed barns after my first year of horse riding😂

I love AQHs!

If I ground mount, I do it Indian style lol Took awhile for Buckshot to get used to that, my gelding was like a mare lmao

I love quarter horse Congress

What they mean by you should be able to ground mount your horse is that you, as a rider, should be physically fit enough to mount without a block. That is not to say that if you are short with a tall horse that you must be able to get on from the ground. It's saying that if you are so out of shape that you can't lift your leg high enough or pull yourself up then you shouldn't be riding. This only works for a horse that is proportionately sized to you. Mean by this if you are riding a pony (for instance a halflinger) and are 5'6 then obviously you would be able to mount from the ground (don't ride horses that are too small for you, just an example + most halfies are pretty strong) but the opposite also takes effect. If you are 5'2 and are riding a 17 hand warmblood, you are most likely going to need a block. It is much easier on both you and the horse to use a block but you should be in some sort of shape to be riding ( not saying you have to be super skinny, not trying to offend anyone)

lol im so bad but i love ground mounting i did it first time it just feels more profeshinal i guess to mounting block :)

Omg I love sarah

I LOVE SARAH

I think Sarah is my favorite. Shhhh don't tell the rest!

I just discovered this today - too funny!! Took me several videos to discover SmartPak was real and not part of the gags.

Is it weird that I can only ground mount after warming up? I was out on the trail and there was this huge log just before a hill(so we couldn't jump it) and I got off and walked over it with my horse. Then I had to get back on and I did it without any troubles made me laugh😹

When you said Cody does therapeutic riding, do you mean he is a horse that works at path international?

Does she now ride western or English or both?

Thanks for asking, Mighty Mouse 101! (Love your avatar, btw.) If Cody and I go out on a trail ride, we switch back and forth between English and western, depending on our mood (he’s about to turn 28 on April 1st, so we take it easy these days). I do have dreams of leasing (maybe buying - who knows?!) an eventer and getting back into competing, but I’d have to get a lot more fit before I’m ready for that. But a girl can dream, right?! Especially if it’s about horses! Have a great ride! - SmartPaker Sarah

01:13 me when I get on technically every pony. Even Sunny, al 11 hand gelding.

Can you ride western to

I would not ground mount becuz it pulls the horses back and twists it back and pulls it skin use a mounting block you do not put as much preasure on the horse

Mounting from the ground is NOT bad for the horse if you were actually taught how to do things CORRECTLY...

@emoheartsJR

9 жыл бұрын

Not trying to start anything or cause drama, but mounting from the ground is actually not very good for a horses back. Now, if someone is a little 80 pound skinny minny and the horse is a 16 hh giant. Then no, it won't hurt the horses back. But most horseback riders are over 80 pounds and the average horse is around 15-15.2 hh.

emoheartsJR if you hang on your saddle and put all your weight into one stirrup, it is bad for the horse. A lot of riders can get on without doing that, or causing any sort of damage at all. A good test of that is actually taking off the cinch and mounting. If you can do that and still have the saddle on the horses back, you're definitely not hurting the horse.
