"To do well, you have to love horses. If you don't like horses, and don't enjoy being around them, you should not ride. I think if you work with horses, they work with you."

Geir Gulliksen

Johan was born into a horse-loving family, and naturally, his interest in equestrian sports was awakened early on.

However, his passion for sports wasn't confined to the equestrian arena alone. Until the age of around 13, Johan showcased exceptional talent as a skier, ranking among the best in his age group across Norway. 

// "I was more interested in football and skiing back then, but at one point, I had to make a decision, and I chose riding."

Ever since then, he has been representing the Norwegian showjumping team. Looking back on this decision, he confidently states that he will never regret choosing full commitment to the equestrian sport.

Johan's journey so far, has been marked by grit and determination. He understands that there's no easy path to success and that each stride towards excellence requires perseverance and endless effort as he continues to strive to achieve his goals.

This past weekend, Johan and Geir has been competing at the 5* World Cup in Gothenburg. 

7 year old Rose of Ballmore showed some impressive rounds in the Lövsta Future Challenge for young horses, facing tough competition from other talented youngsters. They secured a strong 3rd position in Sundays Lövsta Future Final ⭐️ 

In Saturday's 5* Grand Prix, both Geir and Johan were in the start field. Geir and Quatro did a great round, but they had to see two poles fall to the ground. Johan and 10 y/o Myles also showed a super round with just one very unlucky pole down in Myles' 3rd ever 5* Grand Prix. 

Sunday's World Cup class featured a strong field of participants. Johan and Equine America Harwich   knows how to impress the Swedish audience in a full seated Scandinavium with a perfect clear round, that lead them on to the jump off! They topped off the weekend with a great 7th posistion and another 10 World Cup points! 
Well done! 🍀

Victoria has been in the saddle since her early days. From a young age, she embraced riding, forging a deep bond with the horses. She is now managing Stall Gullik's foreign base in Belgium where she lives with her boyfriend Jordy. 

Beyond her technical prowess, Victoria exemplifies the values of sportsmanship and dedication. Her commitment to the welfare of her horses, combined with an unyielding work ethic, sets her apart as a true role model in the world of equestrian sports. She approaches every competition with a winning spirit, yet remains humble and gracious in both victory and defeat.

Victoria's accomplishments in show jumping stand as a testament to her unwavering commitment to the sport. Her journey is a source of inspiration for aspiring equestrians worldwide, and her future in the saddle promises even greater achievements. 

// "The horses mean a lot. It is probably the love for the horses that started it all, and I am probably a little more emotional for both the horses and the sport."

Twenty-two years later, Kingsland is a world leader in equestrian sport and lifestyle apparel, and to this day, creates attire with quality, functionality, and design at top of mind.
