Video Discussion # 46: William Fox Pitt and Cool Mountain WEG 2010 Dressage test
As usual William produces a lovely and fluent Dressage test! So relaxed for a horse that is fit enough to run around a 4 star cross country course the next day! William gives one of the best examples that I have seen of how to properly ride *forward* into the halt. Watch how forward his hands stay as he rides into the halt around 2:09. He is truly riding the horse's hind legs up into his hands every step of the way until the halt is complete. Also notice how he uses shoulder fore to prepare for the walk to canter transition around 2:45. And watch how nicely soft and following his arms are as he comes back to collected canter from the extended canter around 3:48. What other things stand out to you in this video?
