Lottie, you a real one!ĭay one skiing in Breckenridge, I had a boot issue and as I was skiing for the next 3 weeks, I needed them sorted out quick smart. I would recommend anyone to go to Racers and get fitted. I could be in the boots all day, no problem. All my concerns about the pressure and pains I have had in rental boots were relieved working with Lottie to get the perfect fit.įast foreward 10 ski days, I can't believe I waited so long to visit Racers Edge to get my own boots. I asked a lot of questions, being my first ski boots. She was very knowledgable about the fitting and the anatomy of your feet. I was fortunate to get to work with Lottie. I wore my ski socks, but if you are self conscious about hair on your legs shave 'em because they asked me to take off my sock for part of the fitting.
At the time and still may be true, appointments were open only 5 days out. They did not disappoint! I had made my appointment for the beginning of my trip to Breck. I stumbled on Racers Edge while researching the best place to get fitted. What is amazing about Ryann is her humble spirit.After having a terrible time renting ski boots and working through the pain, I finally made the move to get a pair of boots of my own. She can probably ride up over a horse more balanced than most and I’m always amazed how she can stay two handed nearly to the back side of a barrel and never get pitched forward. I met Ryann for the first time in 2010 and I can tell you the girl is athletic as all get out. I know that in other forums people have brought up the fact that Ryann Pedone said that she started her exercise regimen because she felt like she wasn’t as athletic as some of the other barrel racers. The exercise and physical fitness episode was refreshing because I’ve noticed over the years that the people that win and consistently are in the winners circle take this seriously and they hold themselves and their horses to the same standard. Also, the emotional recap of Jana Bean’s first NFR experience and Lisa Lockhart’s testimony of what is takes to be a winning barrel racer were among the highlights of that episode. It may seem like something small, but if you have ever paid for lessons or clinics you know that it’s not the whole weekend or lesson that you pay for, it’s the handful of tips and tools that you go home with. A person would normally have to pay a hefty lesson fee to have something like that brought up. For example, the little mention that Sherry gave about placement of her curb strap on her bridle. What I think people need to remember also is that you have to look at this show for the little stuff that you are going to pick up. If you don’t believe it, believe me, I’ve had a hauling partner late to pick me up because she decided to stop and get her dogs some tater tots at Sonic. So far the “Pets” episode is one of my favorites, yes I know, it’s not about barrel racing, but it’s about these barrel racers’ lives and their pets are a very large part of it. I can’t tell you how many times I have turned around to look in my backseat to make sure my dog was there and I don’t haul nearly as much as these girls. If you’ve ever hauled late nights and long hours you know that it’s very easy to do. I have to give Jordan (Peterson) Briggs credit for telling the story about how she left her two dogs at a gas station in Wyoming and wasn’t able to get one of them back for several weeks after a long exhaustive search. As many of you know, I’m a advocate of anything that promotes the sport of barrel racing, even to the point that I have given more than generous reviews of shows like Texas Women and Rodeo Girls.īy far, Racer’s Edge is the best barrel racing show out there to date! In the beginning I was worried that the girls wouldn’t tell the real stories of life on the road, but was very happy to see that was not the case. Since then I have watched several more of the episodes and I wanted to wait and watch a couple more before I wrote a review. Having said that, it was still very touching, realistic and authentic and I know that not everyone has seen the Cervi interview in which she talks about the struggle of losing her husband Mike Cervi in a tragic plane wreck. I was excited to see the inside story, but a little disappointed to find that most of the show was from an interview that was released by Classic Equine months (maybe even a year) before. The first episode which featured the ups and downs of life with Sherry Cervi was intriguing and compelling. When the Racer’s Edge show about barrel racing debuted several weeks ago on RFDTV I made sure that my DVR was set to record.
