The Head of the Lake is one of the most iconic jumps in our sport. When you see a rider go through here, then it’s almost like at that point they’ve really been to Kentucky.
This year’s edition had riders facing the massive log drop in, then three — maybe four — strides to a mound in the water. Check out these competitors giving it a go. Then vote in the poll at the bottom of this post for the pair that you think presents the best overall picture.
Go eventing.
