When it works, it’s line breeding. lol
Breeding half-brother to half-sister is bold, but clearly it resulted in a good outcome here!

So, his dam and sire are half-siblings. …
Evidently inbreeding hasn’t affected his jumping ability.
Does he have any get on the ground?

Plenty according to Horse Telex but still youngsters mostly:
If you google him there are videos of offspring in-hand.

I googled and watched some of his young offspring free jumping and they all moved just like he does.

I missed the free jump videos! I just saw trotting and cantering in-hand.

He was shod before. I recall seeing on Facebook that his shoes were only pulled about a week ago!

Should be the textbook definition of both “uphill canter” and “adjustable stride.”

Wow that’s awesome!
He is absolutely gorgeous! I wish I had a mare to breed to him!!!
There are some really nice foals by him in Europe. I’m not sure his semen is available right now, however. He stamps an incredible jump in his offspring -

I asked on a warmblood forum and was told by those that know much more than I do, he was not available in USA, even those there would be quite a demand.
