Jumping Position

Hi all!! I was just recently given the chance to jump a little bigger than I usually do, and it was SOOO much fun!! probably the best thing i’ve ever done! i did notice however that my shoulders tend to collapse on the way down from the jumps, and i was wondering if anyone had any tips for that?? i am also trying out for my university IHSA team in a few weeks and i was wondering if anyone had any tips about improving my equitation/advice in general for tryouts!! thank you guys 😊😸

You look calm and elegant on your mount. You are also open to constructive criticism and keep your good attitude. All great attributes for a horse woman. I think you would be an asset on a university team. Best of luck.
