I think your position looks very nice, leg position looks good and you aren't bouncing. A little stiff in your hands though. Horsey looks quite sluggish which makes me wonder if it's because your hands are quite fixed?

Lookin' good and your toes don't looks weird to me at all, lower leg position looks nice! :p :)

i agree with the above comment. you look good, but maybe bend your elbows a bit more. your arms look stiff and then your body rocks as opposed to letting your hands move with the motion and your lower back absorbing the motion. but your legs looks still and well positioned from what i can see and you look very in control.

just edit to say the second video looks a bit better than the first, your lower back is taking in more of the motion. (this is just what i can see, i may be completely wrong :p )

I would say lower your hands a bit and relax your hip a bit. Otherwise, very nice! :)

thats a very good postion!!! it would look even better if the horse was in a outline!!!

i'd say bend your elbows in a bit because your arms look a bit stiff so what everyone else has said rally :) but your looking good

[Skyhuntress]

What really sticks out to me is how inflexible your arms are. There is no bend or follow through with your arms whatsoever, and you also need to lower your hands a bit. Think about framing him with your hands-so ride more with your hands apart so that the bit is evenly balanced.

You seem to be nice and relaxed in your hips and pelvis, and other then the arms, I'd recommend bringing your lower leg back a bit :)

Other then that, very nice!
