we trot over the tiny warm up jumps, then canter over ones a little bigger. If i let him canter up to the warm-up jump, like I do with Joey, then he's hard to slow down when we land. And, with people on their second lesson ever cutting the corner, I need to have control of him, ya know?
I see what you mean about not going anywhere. Sometimes, he's really powering himself through the canter, others he just drags himself. When he powers thorugh, its really fun and easy(ish) to ride him. Otherwise, its just kick-kick-kick-smack-kick....to keep him cantering. Sometimes he'll just randomly change leads..
16 days till i start riding! Hopefully, I'll remember all the advise and actually use is when riding. :]
*edit* 15 days!
