High-flyer, hot shot and trailblazer are all apt descriptors for this horse
Gipfelsturm is a compact chestnut horse with a charming character that is made all the more appealing by his unerring willingness and stamina. He has the heart of a mountain lion and the intelligence to complete accomplished rounds over even the most challenging of courses. Gipfelsturm is a little fighter who turns every competition arena into his own personal stage.
Always well-balanced and on the bit, he completes every round with perfect rhythm thanks to his even stride and focused mind. Height is no obstacle, and Gipfelsturm can clear jumps of any size thanks to his exceptional quality and his scopey, careful jump.
Janeiro x Cartano x Pablo - a performance pedigree that underscores all of his superlative attributes.
After successful first seasons in young horse classes outside Germany, Gipfelsturm was recently registered with the German Equestrian Federation as a competition horse and has gone on to be a serial winner of young horse classes up to 1.30m with judges’ scores up to 9.0. This six-year-old gelding is ready for international youngster tours before he moves on and up to a great career in showjumping.
Gipfelsturm has many of the qualities of Gipfelstürmer, the horse that Holger Hetzel has to thank for his showjumping career.
A talented gelding with the aptitude and ability to make it to the top.
