You look pretty good! I think you could work on not getting so ahead of the horse, you're wanting to put yourself into your 2-point, just let your horse move you into that position instead of forcing yourself ahead of him. Your leg position looks good, just try to push your heel down a little more. Overall you look good, just some minor things everyone struggles with :) Edited at June 21, 2020 09:35 AM by Weltbrook Acres

Hey! The main thing is your hands are very low. Try not to rest them on the horses shoulder. Second your legs are creeping backwards. Keep them in the same position and make sure your heels are down (obviously). Also try and get your bum up in the air more. Other than that it looks great :)

Ok, I'm a riding instructor so this should be very helpful. First, your crotch is too for foward in the saddle. Second, you are resting your knuckles too much in the horse's neck and you should slide you hands more up the neck when you jump. Third, your are not down at all and your leg looks loose and too far back. Fourth, you should not rest your body as much on the horse's neck, and do more of a two-point. Just the most important things for your position over jumps.
