~Turbo mode activated~
I recently learned that my mare has the cute little habit of doing a massive tail flick over every jump. I, of course, had no way of knowing this, as one cannot see their horse’s tail whilst jumping (unless you’re doing something terribly wrong). We started calling it her Power Boost, but are starting to think that, in an attempt to actually utilize her frequently-ignored bum muscles, maybe she’s just accidentally hitting the wrong ones (like accidentally turning on your windshield wipers when meaning to hit your turn blinkers). I think that’s definitely the case here with Jerry, at least — good job using your core muscles buddy, but maybe you don’t need to try that hard…
