Stride Control
AUTHOR: JEN MARSDEN HAMILTON
Understanding and implementing stride control (being able to adjust the number of strides before and between fences) improves a horse’s rideability and allows the rider to further improve the horse’s technique over an obstacle. Jen Marsden Hamilton discovered striding from former US Show Jumping Chef d’Equipe George Morris, who credits her as being the first student to whom he taught the method that he’d learned from Bertalan De Némethy, one of his mentors.
Stride control is an essential part of any rider’s development when jumping obstacles, and jumping them well, is a goal. Paperback, 176 pages, illustrated
