I love to see more jumping walkers! :3 My horse Gracie is a tennesse walker and we jump bareback. It's awesome to see others cause I am the only one who can jump her, and there's no other walkers except my friend's but Zara is a punk. Lol thanks for the video

Some of them have a natural ability to trot or are more inclined to it, it's very easy to teach them different cues for trotting and gaiting. I have an American Walking Pony, the breed is different from the TWH but similar concept they are bred to Trot and Gait. The versatility of both the TWH and American Walking Pony are only as limited as their human's imagination.

@swNapoleon16 Exactly! my neighbor had a colt that was a Tennesse Walker x American Saddlebred, and he'd go full speed around the paddock and fly over the ditch like nothing.
Their long stride, sure footedness, swift gaits and willingness makes a perfect jumping horse, I don't see why more people aren't jumping them

@NoHorseShouldSuffer i know!!! i personally think they would be great for it! just break 'em outta their natural gait.... my horses grandpa(pure TWH) was nearly 17 hands! thats a perfect size jumper!

@swNapoleon16 I have a walker who jumps too, there's a ton of people who do, despite what the experts say "Theyre not jumping horses!" <-- They are if they want to be!

@jumpevenhigher Ahhhh well I understand. I got 2 horses and I can't afford to get a new one so I have to train and make due with what I have.... Well he looks great and a wonderful
Accomplishment!!

@swNapoleon16 I wanted to start to jump and Mom Looked at me said I had to work with the horses I had. If you look at his Web page it explains how wink came to jump

after teaching him to trot, will he still gait (running walk) for you?

Yes!! His gaiting actually improved after learning to trot... :)

is he trotting or pacing?

He is trotting in most of the pictures - you can see the diagonal legs moving, except at 1:31 he is doing a running walk
