Skyrock Hits the Spot Year End 2018 High Points

Wilson (Skyrock Hits the Spot) has once again topped the charts with the WA POA Club. He brought home  high point halter gelding, high point halter horse, high point 19/over non pro performance, and high point 19/over gaming. Go Wilson!

Bouncer on Working Vacation in Indiana

Aiming for a bit more exposure and some possible showtime, Bouncer has gone out on a 2 year lease to the Colberts place in Indiana. There he will experience grass (!), some under saddle work and produce a couple foals for them and hit a few classes in the show ring. We'll expect him back at Skyrock around April 2020.

Driftwood Dixie Now Grazing Greener Pastures

Our great old mare Dixie has gone ahead, and we will sure miss her. Dixie has spent the last couple of years hanging out in her tree covered pen by our bedroom window. She had developed arthritis from a nasty kick to the knee acquired when she was 12, and she was being kept comfortably as a pasture puff. K was able to come home from college and spend a day with her, and she left surrounded by family, after munching down two flakes of hay (which she had been forbidden to eat since her bad colic episode a few years ago). Dixie was one of the greats - the perfect POA.

Kayla Graduates POA & Colts Win at the Futurity

This past August 24 & 25 Futurity Shows were very successful and yet bittersweet. Kayla rode her last class as a Youth on Sunday. We pulled both Dixie and Penny, former mounts for Kayla, and did some nostalgic classes. Kayla rode Dixie - her 8 & Under pony - in Costume wearing her Navajo Native Americam outfit. This costume was first worn with Dixie when Kayla was 8 years old! 

Kayla and Dixie 2001 Kayla and Dixie 2012

Kayla then rode catch ride on the beautiful mare Desert Queen in Hunter Under Saddle classes, pretty well sweeping every class she entered.

At the end of both days came the excitement, as Kayla rode Penny in Games! Pen was so excited to be there after two years of retirement (even still tubby from Copper) that she just about unseated Kayla as they did their first run on Saturday. However, they got it together and had a blast both Saturday and Sunday. Just after their Texas Rollback run on Sunday, Kayla was asked to dismount in the arena. Shawn Wiest, our President, presented her with a lovely bouquet, and her dad, (the announcer) shared some of her career highlights. It was awesome.

Our 2012 foal crop did well, too! Skyrock Moves Like Jagger won the Colt's Futurity, with Skyrock Copper Operator coming in Reserve. Jagger picked up two Grand Champion Stallions, and Copper was right there with two Reserve Grands.

What a great show!

Introducing HOTROD!

Heeeeeere's RODDY! Poor fellow - showed up at our place Friday morning - got bathed and clipped on Saturday, and shown on Sunday! Poor K, too! She had fun showing Roddy, but she's sure not used to setting up a pony who is that SHORT! He did win a ribbon, though! What are we doing with this super-cute bundle of pony? He is a resident of TIER, a rescue facility here in SoCal that we volunteer for occasionally. TIER called us Friday morning with a dilemma - they are full up, as so many of our rescues are, but were wanting to take in an injured horse in desperate need of medical care. Could we take in Roddy as a foster to free up a stall?  SURE! 

Roddy is a 9 year old black gelding with lots of pretty chrome - he sure handles like he has been a show pony at some time in his life - we were able to clip and trailer him like an old pro. He's about 10.2, and looks like he might be a Welsh X Mini.  A history report says he is broke to ride, and I found a small saddle gall scar on his withers, so I think that may be so, though he has not been evaluated for riding. He'd be awfully cute in a cart, and heck, who knows - he may already be trained for it. He is currently living with us, but is available for adoption through TIER, True Innocents Equine Rescue. Please visit their website for adoption details, and call us if you'd like to spend some time with Hotrod.

Hot Rod has been adopted! Thanks for all your Support!

Max and Sable do us proud at the 2012 South West Regional

April 14 & 15 saw our two yearlings competing in Scottsdale AZ at the S.W.Regional. They trailered well (Thanks, Wiest Family!) ad were very well behaved at the stalls. Max won Grand Champion Stallion, and Sable really showed well, winning her Yearling Fillies class, her Longe-Line class and then standing Res. Grand Champion Mare in a tough field of nice mares.  Both yearlings were admired quite a bit, and one family just couldn't make the drive home to Oklahoma without Sable in their trailer. Congratulations Holden Family on your purchase of Skyrock Sable Rain, and good luck with this fine filly! 

Skyrock Sable Rain Skyrock Maximum Bounce

Congratulations Skyrock Indigo Moon! Supreme Champion!

Indy as an 18 month old  Indy showing with Lindsay Peaton

Skyrock POAs is super happy to announce our first "Skyrock" Supreme Champion, Skyrock Indigo Moon. Indy was purchased by the Peaton family in AZ as an 18 mo. old and has been shown and trained by the Peatons and students of the Peatons ever since. She was awarded her Supreme at the POA Convention in February 2012.  Thanks, Diana and Lindsay for doing a great job with this girl!

Mr Royal Tee and K Clean Up at Year End Awards

K and Joey had an amazing year, which makes us very happy, as K is now in college and even though she is eligible to show one more year, she will likely only be able to make one or two shows just for fun in 2012. At the Awards Banquet, K was stunned as they kept calling her name. She and Joey brought home 2011 Over-All Champion Halter Gelding, the Gelding Stakes Award, and the 13-18 Over-All High Point Buckle. Congratulations, you two!!

Skyrock Snowshoes 3rd in Nation Weanling Colt!

This was a huge surprise, as we hadn't shown Brenin very much in 2010. Usually you need to campaign pretty hard to make the National standings, but I guess the Colorado trip to the RM Regional and the Western Classic put him in contention. Heck, we'll take it!

Skyrock Copper Penny ROM(T)!!!

We applied for Penny's ROM(T) thinking that she hadn't yet earned it but wanting to see how much further we had to go - surprise!! Her paperwork came back with her Register of Merit certificate. Congrats to Perry Brown, Penny's "Dad" at Skyrock West, and to K, who put every single point on her (over 1700 points).

Skyrock Hits The Spot Makes a Mark at His First Show

Rocky was a big hit at his first show, winning the Cal-State Futurity Weanling Colts Class, and earning his first Reserve Grand Champion Stallion! He looked great thanks to Stacy Lair at Competitor's Edge, who had only 3 weeks to take him from 'pasture' to 'fabulous'. His stand-out color makes him hard to miss in the ring.

  Rocky and K after his big win.

Skyrock Snowshoes brings home Res. Grand Champion Stallion from the 2010 Western Classic 

The Rocky Mountain Regional and Western Classic Shows, held in Loveland Colorado over the 4th of July weekend were a success for Skyrock.  K and Skyrock Copper Penny earned the rest of the Regional Timed Points needed for her ROM(T), plus had a couple of phenomenal HUS rides. Brenin did very well, too, starting at the Regional where he won Res. Jr. Champion. At the Classic, he really wowed them, as under three judges, he won his class, was Junior Champion, and then went on to take Res. Grand Champion Stallion over a field of yearlings, 2yos, 3yos and 4yos. Brenin was the only weanling in the field. He was also super popular back at the stalls, where he had lots of visitors and earned many hugs and scratches. (such a good boy!) The trip was long (4 days solid traveling, plus 5 days in Loveland) but we saw lots of beautiful scenery and some wildlife including a pronghorn, a fox and a golden eagle! Awesome trip!

TF Whole Lotta Pretty 2009 Res. International Weanling Filly Champion

Bouncer's only 2009 offspring, owned by Johnny Brown of Texas and out of a gorgeous Mister Respect daughter, LVO Whole Lotta Respect, showed at one show in 2009. The International. This super sorrel snow-cap filly brought home the Res. Champion Honors. LVO Whole Lotta Respect is back in foal to Bouncer for 2010 - another champion for sure!  Congratulations!

Skyrock Copper Penny Third in Nation in '08 13-18 Open Show Program

Our ex-broodmare, Skyrock Copper Penny, who is currently being conditioned and trained for gymkhana and HUS, surprised us with her qualifying for top five in POAC's Open Show Program. Penny and K showed at several Open Gymkhanas last year, doing very well despite being new to the game, and ended up 3rd Over-All in the Nation in the 13-18 Division. Way to Go Penny & K!!

Skyrock Ruby Six, Bouncer's first foal, delivers Bouncer's first grand-get!

"Rock Me Rebel" (name pending)

(BR Rockin Rebel X Skyrock Ruby Six)

This is a grand slam first grand-get for Bouncer- A gorgeous dun colt with a snow-cap blanket, and cute-as-can-be star and snip. He's also a grandson of Santee Saladin, as his sire, BR Rockin Rebel is a cremello son of Mr T's.  Congratulations to Lake Shore POA Farm and Rhonda Hoadly on this lovely colt!

Skyrock Weanlings Dominate Cal-State Futurity 

Cal-State POAC  held it's annual PonyRama, B&P and Futurity this weekend (Aug 23&24). We had entries in the Weanling Colts and Weanling Fillies divisions. Our black leopard colt, Skyrock Shadowman, took first place under all three judges, winning both the Futurity and the POA classes. He then went on to win two Grand Champion Stallions, plus a Reserve Grand. Shadow's half sister, bay fewspot Skyrock Sunrise, took two firsts and a second under the judges, also winning her Futurity, and going on to win a Grand Champion Mare and a Reserve Grand. Sunny is 4 1/2 months old! In the Over-All standings, both Sunny and Shadow competed in the In-Hand-Trail class (a little sibling rivalry!) and though Sunny rocked in In-Hand-Trail, with the combined scores, Shadow edged her out for the Over-All Championship, and Sunny had to be content with Reserve Over-All. Little brother Skyrock California Boy placed 4th in the Colt's Futurity (2nd under one judge!) - but got MANY compliments on just how cute, calm and well mannered he is - don't worry, though - he'll catch up to his older sibs and start kicking tail as he grows.

We are super pleased with this year's crop - they are awesome!

Zip N Chip Prince:

SUPREME CHAMPION!

Stoney and his rider K showed at the 2008 Rocky Mountain Regional in Spanish Fork, UT, and while there were able to run their Supreme Champion Victory Lap, as Stoney earned the final few points he needed towards his National Award.

We are so proud of K and Stoney!!

This marks the second Supreme Champion Pony for K within the last 2 years.  K wants to take a break, and will be schooling Skyrock Copper Penny for games. (NO BANDING!!)

Skyrock POAs hosts

      Norco Junior Horsemen's Assoc.

We all had a great time here at Skyrock Saturday, March 22, as we hosted the Junior Club of the Norco Horsemen's Association. Their goal this year is to learn about as many different breeds of horses as they can, so to this end, they are touring ranches in the Southern CA area which breed various types of horses. Several kids and "Grown-Ups" attended, and they learned about some of the history of the POA and some of the foundation stallions and mares. We also learned about what makes a POA a POA, and about Appaloosa characteristics and color patterns. We then took a tour of the barn and got to meet some of the ponies, and identify their coat patterns. The highlight was turning Bunny and Shadow out into the round pen and watching him play. Shadow came right up to the fence and made friends, and then we all went back into the house for refreshments. Shadow did cause just a bit of concern when he lay down to nap and wiggled himself half way under the fence, but he managed to get himself out of it before rescue arrived, with not a scratch on him. All in all, a very nice time, and hopefully the kids had fun and learned a little too!

Norco Junior Horsemen's Assoc. visits Skyrock to learn about POAs.

Skyrock POAs Scores BIG TIME

What a great feeling it is to see our Skyrock babies do so well!

Zip N Chip Prince Earns His ROM(Halter) 

Stoney pulled it out of the hat again, scoring yet another Grand at this weekend's Cal-State Show and Futurity, and earning more than enough points to qualify him for his ROM(H). He also earned 5 other firsts and a host of placings, enough to bring him to half way to his ROM(NT) and only 200 points shy of his ROM(T). K is working hard to get this guy Supremed, and they are getting close!

Mr Dakota Chisum - Supreme Champion

Dakota has done it -  our first Supreme! He and his rider acquired the last 14 points needed to qualify at the SCPOAC IBC Show held at Yucaipa on 3/31/07. It was a very proud moment watching them take a victory lap while highlights of their career were announced. Great job! We couldn't be more proud of this pair. Now to file the paperwork...

First Bouncer Filly Shown in 2007 at Her First Show Wins Res. Grand Champion Mare

Skyrock Sienna is coming along brilliantly! Under the guidance of Stacy Lair, Sienna (bay snowflake yearling) attended her first show on February 24th, which was an IBC. Sienna won her class, won Junior Champion, and then took Reserve Grand Champion over a field of very nice mares, some of whom hold National titles! We are very pleased!

JBar Bouncin Dot Com Wins Again!

John Kennedy Memorial Yearling Triad at the 2006 Nationals

Dot brought home the trophy for the first-ever John Kennedy Memorial Award, given to the Over-All High Point Yearling at the POA National Futurities. Dot's combined score from Halter, LungeLine and In-Hand-Trail topped the charts at this year's Nationals. Congratulations to owner Jan B. Loveless of J-Bar Ranch and Nikki Ferwerda, trainer.

Another Skyrock Poster Pony!

Dazzle's Sugar Babe is following in daddy Bouncer's hoof prints! This spectacular 2006 black few-spot filly was the centerfold poster pony in the popular German equine magazine, "Pferde anzeiger", and also appears in a five page article on POAs in Germany. Congratulations to Anina Weber, Sugar Babe's owner.

JBar Bouncin Dot Com 
(Ultimate Bounce X CAs Sabrina)
2006 International Yearling LongeLine Champion

The first foal from Bouncer's first crop to show at an International has done us all proud. JBar Bouncin Dot Com won the Yearling LongeLine class at the July 2006 International in St Louis MO. A beautiful bay few spot filly, Dot has had that champion look since the day she was born. Congratulations to J-Bar Ranch and Jan B. Loveless, owner, and Nikki Ferwerda who showed Dot to her Championship. Dot also placed in Yearling In-Hand Trail, Most Colorful and had a placing under the GOOD judge in Halter.  Also - very good news for you folks looking for a potential champion to add to your show string: CAs Sabrina has been checked in foal to Ultimate Bounce for a full sibling due in 07. Give Jan a call! 

Ultimate Bounce Representing the POA Breed for Arabian Horse Assn. Poster

Bouncer is located in the middle of North America, standing next to Dreamfinder.

Bouncer has been chosen by the Arabian Horse Association to represent the POA Breed on their Nationally distributed poster depicting horse breeds of the world descended from Arabian blood. Black Hand, POA #1, was the first foundation stallion of our breed and the pony upon whom the POA type was based. Black Hand's dam was a half Arabian Appaloosa colored mare. We at Skyrock are deeply honored that the AHA would consider Bouncer such a fine example of our breed. These posters are currently available from the AHA.

Bouncer's 2007 Book includes:

• RBR Bunbeatable, Select Sire Futurity Champion

• Queen Of Aces, ROM(H)

• Suncrest Lullabye, International Champion

• Miss Lacey Snow, dam of multiple Champions 

Please contact us if you'd like your fine mare to join this line-up!

Ultimate Bounce Competes 

at the Cal-State Derby

Bouncer does it again at the late August Cal-State Riding Derby for 4-5 year olds, he won the Western Pleasure perpetual trophy. Competing with California's best, a fine field of National caliber ponies, he pulled that fabulous lope out and looked great with Stacy Lair aboard. Bounce previously won the English Pleasure trophy, so we are very pleased to have his all-around ability proven with this win. (He also placed Reserve Champion in the English Pleasure Derby!)

Stepp'n Out With A Bounce 

Wins Cal-State Futurity

Competing in a field of excellent colts at the highly competitive Cal-State Futurity, Bouncer's first son, Stepp'n Out With A Bounce, wowed the crowd with his brilliant color and conformation by taking the Weanling Colt's Futurity Championship. This is a true victory, as this futurity has been a proving ground for many fine POAs and Select Sire Futurity winners and money earners. We are so excited, almost as much as the Sanga family, Rascal's owners. This colt has a fine future ahead of him.

Skyrock Sequoia Tee 

N.W. Regional Champion Weanling Colt, Res. World Champion

Skyrock Sequoia Tee had a fine entrance to the world of showing at his first show, the North West Regional held in early August. Here he easily took the Championship with the guidance of Stacy Lair. At the POA World which followed the Regional, he brought home the Reserve World Championship. Not too shabby for this fellow, who has a ton of eye appeal and ring presence. At the height limit now, he will be home until next season, when he'll be shown as a yearling in halter and color, and maybe In-Hand Trail.  

Western Classic and New Homes for Skyrock Ponies

Skyrock POAs attended the Western Classic in June 05, showing two ponies, Bouncer's first foal, Skyrock Ruby Six, and show mare Gold's Mistie Acapella. Ruby had only come for the ride, as the Niekirk's of OR were going to pick her up for delivery to her new owner, Alyssa Brown of OR, but we ended up hurriedly clipping and cleaning her up and stuck her in the fillies class. Bouncer's first get at her first show was Champion Weanling Filly.

Bonnie was ridden on Saturday in Costume and Games, and they turned out to be farewell rides, because the Jenkins family of ID came down to UT to see Bonnie, and their three boys just fell in love with her, and so Bonnie went home to ID where a new chapter awaits her. Bonnie trailered 10 hours home without a peep and settled right in - during an update phone call, we were told that Bonnie and the Jenkins' 9-12 rider won Western Pleasure at their first show. Congratulations!

Ultimate Bounce Wins at the World Again 

Under the guidance of Stacy Lair, Bouncer won both the 19 & Over Western Pleasure class and the JPFC Western Pleasure class at the 2004 World Show in Colorado. We are delighted with these important wins, as it shows Bouncer's all-around excellence: not only is he pretty, but he rides, too!

Ultimate Bounce Achieves ROM(H) 

First in the Nation 3yo Stallions

We have wrapped up an unbelievable year for Skyrock's stallions, and the topper is Bouncer standing at #1 in the Nation for 3 yo Stallions. To make it better yet, he has earned his ROM(Halter). We are so proud of him, and he just keeps getting better and better. We have worked out a 2004 show schedule with trainer Stacy Lair, and Bouncer will show local, State, World and National Futurities in JPFC, and we fully expect him to do well. 

(CLICK HERE FOR BOUNCER'S PEDIGREE!)

California Futurity Wins for Skyrock Stallions

 First time out under saddle for Ultimate Bounce has shown the POA crowd what we've known all along: That boy can MOVE!

Placing third in the Western Pleasure division, we were pretty happy with the result despite an equipment failure that lowered his score. However, he made up for it in English Pleasure, moving out with a fluidity that was really impressive, and brought home the winning trophy.

Skyrock Skipper Twist showed in the Yearling Halter Division of the Futurity, and brought home the trophy too. He also scored big at the Ponyrama that the Futurities were being held in conjunction with, taking home Grand Champion Stallion under both judges and completely skunking Bouncer. Skipper is maturing into a fine young stallion.

First International Show for Skyrock a 

Big Success!

Ultimate Bounce and Skyrock Skipper Twist really did Skyrock proud! At the 2003 International Show in Shelbyville Tennessee, Ultimate Bounce won his Three-Year-Old Stallions class, and then went on to win Senior Champion Stallion! Skipper took a Reserve Champion in Yearling Colts, and a 5th (out of 15) in Lunge-Line  - not too bad for his second time out! - These placings earned Skipper the Small Stallion Stakes Award!

Thanks to Stacy Lair at Competitor's Edge for fitting and showing 'the boys'.

Skyrock Wins Again at the 2003 World!

Taking two colts to the 2003 POA World Show in Spanish Fork, Utah, we are once again delighted with the performance of our Ponies! Bouncer has claimed back-to-back titles, and our yearling, Skyrock Skipper Twist, has also shown he has the 'Right Stuff'.

Ultimate Bounce and Skyrock Skipper Twist  

Sweep the Grands at 2003 South West Regional 

and  2003 Rocky Mountain Regional

The 2003  South West Regional at Scottsdale proved a rewarding experience for Skyrock. Two colts were fitted and shown, Ultimate Bounce and Skyrock Skipper Twist, and they ended up going Grand and Reserve Grand in the Stallions Division. 

Both colts are headed for the CA State shows as well as Southern CA's events, and are headed for the World and the International this coming summer.

****************

The Rocky Mountain Regional upheld our confidence in our boys, as they once again swept the Grands, with Bouncer going Grand Champion Stallion, and Skipper taking Reserve Grand Champion Stallion. Skipper also took Reserve Champion in Color and in Yearling Lunge Line. The stakes were up there, as the RM Regional is the prelude to the POA World, & we were happy to have them do so well just before the "BIG" show! 

They both looked wonderful, fit and gorgeous, thanks to Stacy Lair, who has been conditioning and handling them for Skyrock.

************  

Bouncer has been started under saddle, and Stacy reports he has wonderful movement. He will be shown in the California Futurities at the end of August '03, and we have plans for him to show JPFC in 2004. 

Skipper is for sale, (available after the World) but will of course continue to be shown until sold.

Skyrock has moved to Norco, California 

Skyrock POAs has branched out into two divisions this summer. With a move to a property in Norco, the stallions and show ponies will be stalled where training and fitting can be intensified,  and the broodmares will remain in Avocado Heights where they will be brushed, patted and fed. We are very excited about this move, and believe it will have a very positive impact on our program. Our internet addresses will remain the same, and we can be emailed for new actual location and contact information. 

Skyrock Wins The  2002 World!

Recent Acquisitions And Arrivals

   Mr Royal Tee

(Santee Saladin X Suncrest Kandi Bar)

35 degrees - can you tell??  What a face!

This super cute gelding has been leased by Skyrock for K's last show season. He's a sweetie, and K expects to have a fun year. He comes from impeccable breeding - his sire is POA ROM Champion  and Multiple International Champion Santee Saladin, and his dam is a POA legend - Suncrest Kandi Bar, Supreme Champion and International Versatility Champion.  "Joey" is no slouch - he has won at the National level when shown by Kan Win POAs (he has his ROM(H)), and has spent the last few years as a reining cow horse for a former POA family. We are very happy to have him at Skyrock!

Big Tyme Model

(Color Me Big Tyme X Santee Spanish Model)

Sandee is a daughter of Color Me Big Tyme (Santee Admiral X Santee Pride) and out of Santee Spanish Model (Santee Spanish Nick X Santee Model). With fabulous breeding like this, we couldn't pass her up! Stacy Lair of Competitor's Edge, and Shannon Clark of Clark Performance Horses found her at the 2009 National Sale and purchased her for Mom, who has always wanted a Palomino! She's a little thing - barely 53", but she's well built and should broaden out this year. Sandee spent a bit of time at Stacy's, then was sent to be bred to Bouncer for a 2011 foal - we can't wait to see the color on this one!  

Miss Lacey Snow

(St Niks Snowstorm X JBJ's Design By Dude)

1996 sorrel few-spot mare

Lacey comes to us as a large broodmare prospect. She is a homozygous few-spot mare, but has many more credentials than her color. She is by noted sire St Nik's Snowstorm, sire of JBJ's Firestorm and Miss Cinnamon Snow, as well as our own Driftwood Dixie. She produced some very nice foals for Little Valley Oaks, notably LVO Respect This Miss, and we are very happy to welcome her to Bouncer's band.
