Yuka "Zygzak" Cloudkin (he/them)
POTM
2024
Zyg has been an amazing addition to The Crew! They've shown so much drive by learning their Deckhand lessons, competing in a competitive routine fresh out of trial, and they have recently taken on leading the weekly agenda. We are honored to have them and are excited to see him continue to grow.
"zyg has been a member of CP not for long, but they have been an incredible asset to the team! they caught on to dressage in english super quickly and i find that really impressive. this speed demon loves to keep learning and does so really fast, i cant wait to start competing with them! this trial's showcase has been a great sneak peek into their abilities."
"Zygzak is super fun to be around and has been doing amazing despite their main language not being english."
Lily "Onna" Oldheart (they/them)
POTM
2024
Onna has been an amazing addition to The Crew, and we are truly honored to have them! They bring amazing energy to practices and are always showing kindness to anyone who steps aboard our ship.
"Onna has been on it with attending lessons, including joining Cadets lessons while they were still a Deckhand! They're also a frequent chatter on Discord and a certified champ medal and light collector!"
"Onna has come to every single practice in uniform and always brings good vibes. Despite being pretty new to CP Onna fit right in and felt like part of the CP fam right away."
"I met Onna at drill and they are super funny!! We always 'flirt' (xD) on the comp docs when are are supposed to be taking notes (oops) but its really cringy and makes me wheeze. Also, Onna's cats are cute and they always show up for practices! Even if it isn't their rank!"
Clara "Flower" Flowerhall(she/her)
POTM
2024
Flower is SUCH an amazing rider, crewmate, and person. The energy she brings to practice is such a vibrant majestic thing, and her recent obsession with Betty has added so much to the club. Thank you for starting trends and befriending everyone. It helps the club atmosphere so much and Crystal Pirates wouldn't be the same without you!
"Flower is such a hoot! She always comes with great energy to practices and events and we can't forget her one true love, Betty the Yeti. Also, hypothetically, if there were a million people in the arena..."
"During our recent RR1 practices, she does a really good job at remembering her moves and also being a team player and working well with everyone! She is also the keeper of Betty and I feel like that means something lol"
"Flower is such an amazing person and I have seen her come out of her shell. She comes to practice on funny horses and brings so many good vibes. I think Flower deserves it because of her epicness. Aslo.. Betty..."
"bc she's v nice / vibey i love her vibes whenever her and i called she was super easy and fun to talk to not to mention shes pretty active so ye thats kewl"
Kaja "Giggles" Wolfwell (she/her)
POTM

Giggles (aka shiggles, diggles, wiggles, and tiggles) has been a great addition to the crew! Her awesome vibes and willingness to try dressage is unmatched. Thank you so much for joining us Giggles and assisting with welcoming new members, riding in lessons, riding in orientations, and helping our website get a new look! Crystal Pirates would not be the same without you!
"Diggles is just so silly. They also work hard and attend lots of practices!"
"I really appreciate how kind Diggles is and the fun and positive energy she brings to practices and events!"
"I think Giggles deserves POTM because she is very nice and willing when I see her at practices and events. She also always gets the spontaneous toilet quizes right!!"
