Canter balance
Posted: Sat Jan 20, 2018 12:48 pm
Can consistently counter cantering both leads be a sign of sacro issues? Or something else besides balance/strength?
Mid last year i was given by a great friend a very cute little buckskin 6yo tb x qh. He's very very green (ie I've started him myself and we've had only 5 or 6 rides) but mostly a real dude and been a lot of fun so far.
His canter tho is all over the shop. Working in hand/lunging he's gone from having only right canter to then countering to the left and then changing (prob 50% of the time only in front) after a stride to disuniting left to today consistently cantering normally (and fairly calmly/balanced) but on the wrong lead both reins.
Thanks
