  • the first time i cantered bareback my horse (QH) wouldnt break out of a trot, which just kept getting faster and faster, i was bouncing about a foot off his back XD he finally started cantering after he jumped over a pole we had in our arena. Greatest experience of my life <3 when i was done i jumped off and gave him a hug :D lmao

  • I have this problem with my horse Oreo. He has given my trainer and i a good fall at a full speed gallop.( we are both okay now) we both tried every method in the book to stop him but we just couldnt do it. right now he is getting fat with my retired horse Mo. we cant seem to find a trainer that could really handel him without having to send him up to a pro trainer in another state. i really need some advice and if you know any good trainers in NC PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!!

  • @OreoAndMo did you try training him in a pen?

  • @ilovejoeify she knows, she says a gallop is an elongated faster version of a canter, the cantering horse was just an example of what to do

  • very good advise

  • ...the gallop has an entirely different set of tracks than the canter. Thus, much different than an elongated canter.

    Canter - 3 beats.

    Gallop - 4 beats.

  • im pretty sure thats not a gallop. i think thats a canter..... if not than i have "galloped"

    yeah..... thats a canter

  • Thats not a gallop

  • what no vests ????

  • if i am allowed to, i'd rather see you suggest how to sit back and open the shoulders rather than jumping on the pulley reins trick, i don't mean to criticize, but i am just pointing out there's no mention about of trying not to lean forward putting the horse even more on the forehand, i would be more specific on what that "slow down -get things back together" really means; imho no sense doing rough stuff when the rider is also telling the horse "GO" with their body language.kinda confuses em.
