We've worked our butts off at dressage this year and he is now FANTASTIC jumping from any distance at the trot, but still falls apart at the canter if he gets in a little funny. I'm basically not worrying about jumping for the rest of the year and just focusing on dressage to strengthen/improve his canter.<br /><br />I mean, I could jam him around. But. Why?

You have time and the skill, so good time to work on strength. Seriously only $6, I wish. Ours are 3x that price just because we are gold level.Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13675631291488697042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846330497859393721.post-19317071641655781542015-08-17T08:24:53.982-04:002015-08-17T08:24:53.982-04:00Sounds like a great plan!
