OCC: well if were suppose to rp well heres my post
A young girl named of Jessica krain who signed up for intermediate class cantered through the arena. circling the first jump giving the judges a nod showing she id ready. Though American Dream tossed her head as her nicley braded tail flew gently. As Jessica lead her towards the first jump. She sat softly in the the saddle. keeping her self in good form. Approaching the first jump Jessica kissed and lightly taped her mares side. As the american dream tucked inher front legs rounding out her back. lifting her hind to clear the jump. Americans Dreams strides never faltered coming towards the second jump. Jessica and Dream cleared the jump nicley. though landing slightly unsteady. Jessica held her legs against dreams side. picking up the pace. Dreams coat was already slightly damp. Galloping to the the third jump entering the first combination. without loosing stride. jessica leaned forward into her twopoint. not getting to ahead of her mare. Landing cleanly. they galloped two more strides as dream lifted up streching her neck out. Jessica giving her short crest realse effitiantly allowing a little slak in the rein. Landing the jump still clear. she put her left heel on her mare bending towards the outer fith jump. Feeling Dream prance under her. "easy now girl you've been perfect so far lets keep it that way". Coutinueing a clear round. Jessica cand Dream galloped to the last fences. "come on girl we beat the time but we have to stay clear" Jessica whispered in Dreams ear. with three strides. Dream jumped the first jump which so happened to be a virtical. landing that the second jump also a virtical but a few inches taller. Dream galloped up to it with confidence. though she though it was like the last jump. She jumped that as though the first though nipped it with her hind legs. She measured it wrong. Though when jessica looked back the poll had fallen. "thats alright girl we did our best " Jessica laughed patting her mares neck as she let out a buck of excitment. before she left the ring. nodding once again to the judges though she had a smile on her face. It was fun and a good experience.
OCC: i wasn't sure if i could make her go clear so i just had her knock the last jump down tell me if i did somthing wrong?

'Next up, Sarah Fikes on Ice Storm.'
Sarah rode into the ring. She had just finished warming up outside. "Come on Storm, you can do this." Sarah whispered encouragingly to Storm after nodding to the judges. Sarah lightly tapped Storm w/ her whip to get her going towards the first jump. "Remember to pick your hind feet up, Storm." Sarah murmured to her mount. Storm measured the distance and took the jump perfectly, arching her back. Storm headed to the next jump in perfect stride. Sarah kept good form and tapped Storm again w/ the whip to get her to the jump. Storm took off perfectly but lost balance in the middle of the jump and tapped the jump. "Oh, no." Sarah said. Luckily though the pole didn't fall. Storm headed to the combination with enthusiasm. She took the next two jumps perfectly but had a little trouble w/ the first diagnal, losing balance and tapping it, but again a pole didn't fall. "One last jump, Storm, let's take it perfect." Sarah tapped Storm lightly and Storm flew over the diagnal like a bird. "Yes." Sarah cheered. She again nodded to the judges and rode out of the ring. "You did good Storm, I'm proud of you, this being your first show.

"Thanks, yours was pretty good, too. That's a pretty nice mare you have." Sarah said, having trouble keeping Storm still. "Storm is hyper after jumping, just like American Dream!!"

[n]"I try"[/b] She laughed meaning her mare was energetic and hard to handle. "She, used to be a race horse so she has to much energy at times." Jessica laughed. As Dream stoppeed prancing looking at storm slightly. Catching the new scent. jessica backed her up a bit just as she was about to pinn her ears. "she can be moody at times to though" Jessica shook her head as she backed a bit further from storm

"The racing explains some. I think all mares can be moody sometimes though. I suppose it's just built into their personality!" Sarah replied, backing up Storm, who pinned her ears back and started bucking and rearing. After she had settled Storm down she said to Jessica, "Take that as an example. Strom is usually docile and calm but she has mood swings every so often. She usually has them after stressful competitions and hard training!!" Sarah laughed as she started to cool Storm down, who was tugging at the reins and about to attack anyone near enough to kick. Storm tugged at the reins and reared and bucked every yard or so.

I know this was posted a ways back, but we call it two point as well. It is becuase when sitting, you are using 3 natural aids, leg, seat and hands, therefore it is 3-point, where when you are leaning forward out of the sadlle you are only using 2, leg and hand, therefore it is called 2-point.
