Langley’s Danea Shuttlewood was among the Triple M Vaulting Club members who competed at the B.C. championships at Thunderbird Show Park.

It was a fantastic finish to the season for a handful of Langley athletes.

Competing at the provincial equestrian vaulting championships — a combination of acrobatics and dance performed on a moving horse — the club capped off the season with two individual gold medals, a silver, a bronze and one team gold medal.

They were competing at Thunderbird Show Park Sept. 25 to 27.

Each competitor does a compulsory round followed by a freestyle round set to music.

The athletes are part of the Triple M Vaulting Club and were competing on the club’s horses, Buddy, Jake and Simon.

Hailey Besse won gold in the trot D division while Danae Shuttlewood won gold in the walk C division.

Devon Wrayton (walk D under 10) and Julia Thul (senior women’s canter D) won silver and bronze, respectively, in their divisions.

Emily Besse just missed the podium, placing fourth in the walk C division.

And Shuttlewood, Wrayton, Maher and Tauren Deluca teamed up with Surrey’s Cassidy Smith and Abigail Old to win gold in the beginner walk competition.
