How to Record Your Round:

Study our course, choose your fence height (18", 2’, 2’6", 2'9", and 3’) and set all fences to that height. You are ready to record your video.

Note: Videos of rounds MUST BE one continuous filming and MUST BE unedited from start to finish. If you are riding both course A and B, your videos MUST BE filmed and uploaded separately.

Step 1
Using a phone or video camera, have a helper video your round: Your helper will stand outside the arena, midway down the long side (see course diagram for which side), ideally in an outdoor arena/field during the daytime. For best results, the camera should not be facing into the sun. An indoor or covered arena may be used if the lighting is good—the better the lighting conditions, the better you will look.

Step 2
Prior to your opening circle, your video helper must show measuring tape beside one jump, and a panoramic view of the course. They will then hold up a cell phone displaying the date and time with you in the background, mounted on your horse. With the video still recording, speak into the camera and state your name, your horse’s name and the fence height you will jump. Proceed directly (no stopping and starting the video camera) to your opening circle and ride the course. The sound must be turned on throughout the entire video. From the time your round begins, make sure that you and your horse are in the video frame at all times and when jumping the fence, the entire fence is in the video frame.

No zooming in and out. (At a live horse show, the judge would not be able to zoom in and out.)

Step 3
Upload your video to YouTube, (Make sure it is either UNLISTED or PUBLIC) and email the YouTube link to MHSAvirtualhorseshow@gmail.com

The name of your video must include: rider name, horse name, fence height, and the date.
(ex: Jane Darling riding Hercules - 2' Course A - 8/14/2020)

Rules:
1. The entry fee is $25 per class. Two courses (A and B - diagrams included with entry submission) are offered for each jump height. Riders may only enter one jump height per virtual horse show.

and on our website at www.MauiHorseShow.com
3. You must set our predetermined hunter course (included with your entry submission). Choose your fence height (18", 2', 2’6, 2'9", and 3’) and set all fences to that height. Be sure to include ground lines in front of every fence.
4. You must wear an ASTM/SEI approved helmet and appear in proper hunter-show attire; heeled boots and half-chaps are permitted. (Braiding is optional)
5. Your horse’s legs must be bare (i.e. your horse must not be wearing any boots, polos, bell, etc.)

14. We will make every effort to judge this class fairly with the knowledge that there are inherent challenges to judging online shows that make it different from the real-life experience.

Judging:
All riders will be judged on horse's manners, performance, suitability and soundness. To take into consideration the different fence heights, you will be evaluated on the judge’s interpretation of the ideal for your chosen fence height (18", 2’, 2’6, 2’9" and 3'). The judge will
determine which riders come closest to those ideals collectively and will place riders in 1st–6th place for each class.
