It was way cooler than the normal equestrian stuff where they jump over things in an enclosure, this was running through the woods and jumping over stuff. Whole course took about 9 minutes. Pretty cool!

I was baked as hell yesterday and couldn’t look away from this event. Randy Moss put on an absolute clinic.

Mrs and I watched it for a good bit in the morning yesterday. How cool was it to have Versailles as the background for the event ( Paris so far been impressive with their venues ..beach volleyball up against Eiffel tower, fencing in ..not sure what building but, it's a really nice set up)

But back to equestrian, the Versailles grounds are perfect for this. I did think it funny, that one jump where the horse/Rider came up a small hill then straight into a jump.... There was a 6..7 ft bear statue at that b jump. Saw a horse balk and wondered ...misstimed the jump or saw a big bear standing there

That was an incredible backdrop for this. Definitely better than dressage as an overall sport too. Although, if Snoop is gonna commentate dressage, I'll definitely watch.
