So a horse that is "well-schooled" and packs around 2'6 probably won't feel as solid going around courses at 3'. But being really solid at 2'6 will make moving up seem much easier than if you were just mostly OK at 2'6. You guys look great, and I bet as the jumps go up again, you'll find things much easier than they were before!Heather - The Graduated Equestrianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07681676187300620940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932439930694780998.post-83461797788155023762016-03-04T06:23:31.556-08:002016-03-04T06:23:31.556-08:00ha i love how her tails jumps too lolz. and yea i ...ha i love how her tails jumps too lolz. and yea i think your definitely hits pretty close to my impression too - esp the bit about how the horse can still make it happen even with a certain degree of rider erroremmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686949099663199382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932439930694780998.post-29577172511021524892016-03-04T06:22:54.124-08:002016-03-04T06:22:54.124-08:00omg bouncy adjustable canters are BEST canters!!omg bouncy adjustable canters are BEST canters!!emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686949099663199382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932439930694780998.post-61174222531343826142016-03-04T06:22:37.987-08:002016-03-04T06:22:37.987-08:00thanks! she's really just the most fun evar!thanks! she's really just the most fun evar! emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686949099663199382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932439930694780998.post-63792183644367401282016-03-03T20:11:01.106-08:002016-03-03T20:11:01.106-08:00You two look like you are having an absolute blast...You two look like you are having an absolute blast out there (and I love how her tail jumps every jump)! <br /><br />I generally think of well schooled as a horse that if you do it right, the horse does its job correctly and if you mess up within a certain standard deviation, the horse knows enough about what is expected to cover for you. <br />And sure, you can be well schooled at one height and green at another, totally legit!MostlyHarmlesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11865756625483953737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932439930694780998.post-83630103812958976852016-03-03T15:17:58.476-08:002016-03-03T15:17:58.476-08:00Your release is ONPOINT.
