Does anyone have any ideas for improving jumping technique; my horse seems to be a little lazy with his front legs- he doesn't pick them up very high and seems to go over a jump shoulder first sometimes!
It only causes us a problem when he gets in a little tight to a show jump, most of the time he gives it plenty of height and clears it.
He also does the same over XC fences! (Even though he's very keen to jump and pulling me forwards)
I've used heavy poles a few times but doesn't make much difference. What about putting a V bar infront of the jump?
Any ideas appreciated!
