Himberg-Gutenhof: State Championships for Augustin OLD

Augustin OLD did such a great job in the free-style at Himberg-Gutenhof and we were rewarded with 79.80 percent which meant the State Champion title with a total of 154.74 points. I'm happy, not just because it's my ninth title in the general class but especially because the new free-style Augustin OLD presented for the first time went so well and was also appreciated by the judges and spectators. This new free-style is full of difficulties - so I was a bit nervous and wondered if it could be ridden so smoothly under competition conditions.  But even the transitions went perfectly. It can use some fine tuning still - and I hope that next time it will be as perfect as possible.
