75 cm is 2ft 6 roughly yes

Also just type into google cm to feet and lots of converters will come up!

1m is 3'3", SO 95cm is approx 2'11, 85cm is 2'7", so in theory 75cm is 2'3.

Erm....I think your calcualation is incorrect for 95cm

1m = 3'3"
95cm = 3'1"
90cm = 2'11"
80cm = 2'7"

Basically, every 10cm is 4"

Putting it another way:
70-75cm is a bit boring
80-85cm is starting to get better
90-95cm is worth jumping
100-105cm is starting to get chunky
110-115cm is blooming huge
120-125cm - need to carry oxygen and climbing equipment

Think that is probably subjective though.

Is that the eventing conversion chart, or the dressage one

That would be the show jumping chart - the fences never look as big eventing (something to do with the fact they aren't usually up to height or width and they always look smaller on grass anyway).

Eventing conversion chart - everything moves up a place (so 110 is chunky and 120+ is blooming huge).
