Here are two videos my friend took today on our paso fino ride. The first one is in a dry lake bed. When the pasos came fast from behind I got tense, because when horses do that to stonewall he gets so excited he either takes off with them or gets freaked out and wants to jig and get ready to protect himself. So I got myself prepared, feet level in the stirrups, seated correctly, all that, and you can see in the video it was definitely anti-climactic. I don't think anything gets him very excited. In the second video I was trying to get him to do his fancy prancey walk for the camera but he only trotted, and circled around as if to tell me he wanted to not leave the other horses. i wasn't expecting his sharp turn so not very great riding! I wasnt steering really :)
