FEIF Feather Prize
n the continued push to improve riding skills to advance the welfare of our Icelandic horses, the Board of FEIF decided in 2002 to establish a new prize: the FEIF Feather Prize.
The aim of this prize is to encourage good riding and good horsemanship, a tribute to feather light riding. The awarded riders set an example to the Icelandic Horse World.
The FEIF Feather Prize is awarded once a year on a specific event to a specific rider. Due to COVID and due to the cancellation of the FEIF YouthCup the award was not given in 2021 and 2022. In 2023, the active judges at the World Championships 2023 decided to give the award to Susanne Birgisson from Germany. Congratulations!
