Walking Distances & Building a Safe Show Jump Course

[@thegirlwiththeservicedog6468]

I loveee this. Ive been to too many trainers that dont explain this to you at all, just teach you to jump over them

[@macaylahamilton6187]

This channel is so underrated

[@user-ui7qc1cd2i]

casually replays the start to watch him say "oh, hey babe"

[@soojinkim6107]

[@natalias6378]

[@gachaeris9732]

natalia s *what

[@jojostudies7161]

love this, especially as someone who DOES talk to course designers (and has several course designer friends)

[@pattyslawatecka8827]

I always couldn't remember who I learned to count strides from and now I do.Thanks for teaching me.

[@taylorroyal7847]

Helped me a lot with teaching beginners understand strides, distances, and horsemanship!! will forever recommend my clients to y'alls youtube page for off horse homework.

[@riverlynn1358]

Please start posting again!!

I like the whole video, the music and the very good information, that is very clearly been told. I was already familair with the information, but it's Always nice to hear and see it again. The basics is the most important thing for horse riding (and any sports) And maybe it's easyer for me to walk the distance in foot, than in metres. I certainly try it out. Thanks for the video

[@horsegirl9002]

Thanks! This really helped me understand striding and distances!

[@RidesWithTheWind]

This is so helpful! If I'm ever having trouble at deciding what to do with my horse, I also look here for lesson ideas!

[@ashleybonner4963]

This only really applies IF you walk with a 3ft (~0.9m) stride yourself. I naturally walk a little shorter than that, so I have to train myself to walk EXACTLY 3ft when I need to. And like you said, not all horses even have that stride

[@ebhandparker]

Nice details, simply conveyed. Thank you.

[@sienna7383]

0:08 I made a replay button :)

[@eringray426]

Plz come back to KZbin I’ve watched all your videos so I have nothing watch from you now

[@ThePonySquisher]

Competitions are set for an average stride of 12 feet which is 4 steps as shown. Yes, horses take different sized strides, but you want your horse to easily do the 12 foot stride you will be competing with, so stride lines with them and adjust your horse's strides to get the number you measure. I have a 13.2 hand pony, who's natural stride is not 12 feet, it's more like 9-10. When I school I start at where he's comfortable and then move the jumps out and work to get the 12 foot to compete at.

[@MeganBarnhartAndHerHorses]

Thanks! Today I'm jumping my Arabian, so I wanted to know this important information! :3

[@WalkingExplore37]

Amazing my friend😍👍

[@sophieking572]

Your videos are really helpful

[@northeastequestrian1893]

Would you be able to do a video for a green horse? hes just starting over fences and i want some tips on how to teach him balance and plyability

[@charlystarly24]

4 human strides is one horses canter stride. 2 Human strides is a horses take off and 2 human strides is the landing. So a double combination with one horse stride in the middle is 6 human strides. Generally this is for 16/16.2hh+ or smaller horses with long, exaggerated strides. Ponies canter strides range towards the 9ft canter stride which is why a lot of competitions in the UK will have Junior/up to 14.2 jumping classes.

[@grob391]

Love your theme song!!! Meant to Live is my favorite. Have you listened to Dark Horses?

[@RAPPIEMYBABY]

I can reliably eye a distance at shows and if the course has already been set up. But I do need to walk it in order to set it up.

[@stepherrsse]

Do those striding distances apply to smaller horses? i hsve a 13.3 cob I'm going to teach to jump (we're going to learn together), and wanted to understand the theory before the practical. I don't want to make the jumping difficult for her, because I don't know what I'm doing! Thanks 😊

[@MsCanada9877]

Hey :) I would really like it if yu did a video of just you and your wife jumping these jumps. Woud be so great to watch great riders like yourselves

[@Shilohhasrizz]

Getting a job at a barn as a horse exerciser, needed t learn a few small things to proceed

[@gemmashaw4521]

Very helpful video!

[@LiveLoveRideForeva]

I get what you are saying... But how do you measure your horses stride in steps? It's like so confusing to me :/ do you take steps of the length of your horse then add one more step? Or how do you know how many steps your horses stride is?

[@horseluv2723]

This helped sooo much!

[@KarlaHawkrock]

3:45 Rascall Flatts 😏

[@meaganparker1909]

love jimmie's breeches.. the vid is good too ;]

[@ponycam7096]

I don’t know how big your horses are but those canter strides were LONG

[@TheJumpingGymnast]

Love this channel the vid helped

[@chloebreunig819]

what channel on tv is evention tv on and what time is it on or is it on cabel

[@tabbyycatcos]

they don't tend to have those at shows unless you are doing like the 1.30's but if you are then you should already know:)

[@anficrompton2637]

what website do you get your jumps from

[@babypenny9]

Can you do a video on how to teach a horse to have better head set

[@halmain7406]

Good video

[@prospectequine]

what about triple oxers and swedish oxers

[@katievitiello3425]

can anyone help. I'v just started jumping my share horse and popped him over some 50cm jumps...he never stops but does look down before he jumps it. If I really slow him down (I mean so slow) he doesn't do it. What can I do?

[@minstride5169]

He is just looking at the jump if he makes it and you feel safe with him jumping like that go with it Xx

[@ashleybonner4963]

I think they're less common in Eventing than in the Jumper ring, to be honest. And by the time you are jumping them you'll probably know all of this anyway :]

[@equestrianAdore]

Helpful! Thanks! :D

[@ebonyabra-joiner587]

thanks it helped

[@xxitsmebri]

.. did anyone else notice the background music is Jason Aldean..?? Lol

[@meagan2080]

Country is everywhere, even on an english schooling (slash-help) youtube channel xD

[@xxitsmebri]

XD apparently =p

[@jonasbilodeau5819]

plz make more vids

[@gemmathompson3963]

Amazing :))

[@joannab7299]

I want to own a barn I'm the distant future and I ride western and want to have a jump course and I have no idea what to do 😂

[@peyton7283]

Don't smaller jumps only one step for landing and take off

[@islamellis7636]

PEHeventing yeah x

[@hello8747]

The course builder is not always a he. Just getting that out there.

[@SiennaLOVESpugs]

Next episode “cross country for bacon.” I hope my ears are playing up. 😅

[@Babyk33]

only thing i disliked was the music in the back ground.

[@cjbishop303]

.

[@Noodlemonkey7]

What happened to these guys 😢!?

[@victorialazareva]

The horse in the background is terribly overbent

[@lilytappin2112]

Tori Green take it you ride western then because the rider has contact

[@sydneyequestrian7456]

Lily Tappin why would you think that 😂🙄

[@Gigabitties]

It all depends on their body shape. Horses with thicker necks or that are just bigger in general usually look over bent. And I’m a western rider but I’ve gone to riding lessons with my English riding friend and trust me, I’ve seen some bent horses!

[@philipumbel8889]

I agree!!! The last time it was cantering around!!! Wooh that is what I call rollker...

[@pitbulls4life141]

Horses don't care how pretty a jump is, they care if there comfortable. In this video the horses are obviously not.

[@SC-tr4ss]

PITBULLS 4 LIFE I'm not surprised that you're a pit bull activist

[@sydneyequestrian7456]

Creative Equestrian CS wtf is that supposed to mean?

[@hbond846]

PITBULLS 4 LIFE he doesn’t mean literally pretty, he means how easy it is for the horse to gage how he needs to jump it
