I’ve always loved United Touch S. The ground cover in his gallop is absolutely insane in all the right ways. He doesn’t have an overstride; it’s like this gift from a higher source, whatever you believe in. It’s like nothing you’ve ever seen in real life. That’s why I had to include a slow-motion clip in the video—it’s just unreal. Watching it in real life is like a blink of an eye, but somehow, it’s so soothing. Pure artistry.
There’s nothing like the adrenaline rush of show jumping—it’s pure power in motion. The energy of the jump-off, the crowds holding their breath, the riders pushing for every second, and the horses absolutely flying—it’s electric. It’s like Formula One but with the heart and spirit of these incredible equine athletes.
Horses have this unreal way of letting you know exactly how they feel—sometimes more than people. When they’re happy and connected, it’s like you can feel their pride bursting through every stride. And when they’re not, well, you feel that just as clearly. It’s this unspoken communication that hits you right in the heart if you’re paying attention. That’s the kind of energy that makes show jumping so addictive—it’s raw, real, and completely captivating.
Horses that love to jump show a kind of authenticity that’s almost impossible to put into words. It’s not just about how high they can go or the technical details—it’s about feeling their passion as they take off.
In the wild, horses had to jump through and over obstacles to survive, and you can feel that instinct come alive when you ride a horse who truly loves to jump. It’s like they light up from the inside, connecting to something ancient and raw within themselves.
United Touch S proved all of this just a few days ago at the German Masters. Every stride he took was a masterclass in power, precision, and pure passion. He’s not just a jumper—he’s a force.
At its core, show jumping is about connection, trust, and undeniable magic—a horse like United Touch S giving us everything he’s got.
