Do you think Equestrian disciplines should be part of the Olympics?
Written by admin on April 6, 2009 – 1:38 pm -I am horse rider myself and my personal opinion is that they do deserve to be in such a huge competition as getting to that Olmypic level in all Dressage, Cross Country and Show Jumping-Team Eventing& Individual Eventing, Then there individual dressage and individual show jumping. Is extremely TOUGH to even qualify for the level you see in the Olympics!.
Yes they should and i am glad that they are.
I have been around horses all my life. and i have been riding for about 6-7 years and it is indeed a difficult sport.
I always get annoyed at the arrogant people that this horseback riding is easy, and that all we do is just “sit up there”.
Im always like, yeah… id like to see you try to do what i do every day, then we’ll talk.

Yes, I do. I know very little about the sport, but it has been in them for many years and should stay.

I think they should be. The Olympics should be about a variety of sports. It is not something I am in to but you can see the skill it takes.
