Crush Flatting - January 7th 2013 [06:20]
Flatwork of Crush on January 7th, 2013. I rode him yesterday with completely disconnected stirrups and he was great, but the reason I lunged him today before my hack was because we got freezing rain the night before, and it was wet, cold, and very windy. I just lunged him for 5 - 10 minutes so he wouldn't be silly. Asking price is $4500. Please contact me if interested.

He learned to do a small rear in about a weeks time. I used a whip to signal him and the motion of my body towards him and with my arms up. Soon he would preform for both the word and the motion. He went higher as we kept practicing. I also would tap him on the legs occasionally with the whip if he was not going as high as before. If I would swing the whip at him the same way with out taping him he would also get the hint to go higher. ~~~ To get him to do it while ridden I took the whip and moved it up in the air near his head where he could see it and kept the word UP with it. He figured this out in 1 day as well. After that it was just a lot of practice to make it better. Now I can signal him with the word, the whip, or the motion of my arms all while on his back. ~~~ The Levade I did not train him for this in the traditional way. I took his rearing and asked him for collection and a head set while giving the command to rear. I did ...
