Hello, the Journal hunted up this response from Lynn Palm, who wrote the article you mention: "An extended canter is a lengthening of stride at the canter ... such as a hand gallop. You want to be in the 2 point or half seat position. ... in the hunt seat classes, with any lengthening of canter the rider should be in the half seat, unless designated to sit the canter. ... in the hunt seat division... the hand gallop should be ridden in the half seat position as you would use on a hunter course."
The article in 2013 august aqha journal says we should two point when hand gallop is called. Is extended canter different then from the hand gallop in we don't two point? THANKS, for any info regarding this it is kind of confusing:)
im lookin at a beautiful horse doing english, and this type of english looks really boring, she probly jumps too but this looks like u'd be fallin asleep.
This isn't real hunt seat equitation. This is just an AQHA gimmick that puts Western horses and riders into English tack. (H/J people sometimes call it "Wenglish".) If you want to see real forward seat equitation, look up something like the Maclay Medals. Totally different kettle of beans: czcams.com/video/LVT1JPDZyB0/video.html
Your lead change was so smooth!
