#test notes

"Why don't you write one, then?"

I'm about to go back to college for my next exam. I just wanted to share notes that I made before my last exam as a spiritual goodbye.

Smh they changed the tests so here come ma new notes

CL:

Passagey trot down CL. Canter to X not to C, trot like you're going to half circle to the track at E/B.

Not too much right leg/ left shoulder in in the halt

Trot off one leg, inside leg (left) to avoid cantering out of halt

DIAGONAL:

Collect earlier than I think, 6-7 strides, shorter than I think, think passage, then big go go go

ZIG ZAG RIGHT HP

Big flex through the corner

Inside hand (or whichever ear is down) up.

Leave 1m after marker

Look to P/V whatever those letters are

Outside hand/whip makes angle

Scooch quarters over / go a step further than i think / move shoulders over a step so they actually reach the CL

ZIG ZAG LEFT HP

Look at S? Or between S and H

DIAGONAL EXT

Big collect (transition mark)

Big ext

Over X back off for a sec, rebalance, go again

Big collect

SI IN LEFT

Careful not too much angle

Look at E for the letters

SI RIGHT

Come in off track so can push quarters out

Outside rein hand whip for angle / think almost renvers

C WALK

Painfully slow

Leg yield off inside leg before starting the piro

Rounder than I think

Make them a small circle with travers esp to the left so don't ground

Painfully slow

WALK DIAGONAL

Aim 2m down from the letter to give more time

Let out curb rein extra

Let elbows go back and forward to make neck look better

Pick up over the QL

WALK TRANS

Flex and inside hand up

Ask 2-3m before letter

Cut short side by 1m so can leg yield out

Stay on the shortside 1-2 strides longer than I think

Quarter pirouette onto the CL.

HALF P

Stay on centreline longer... ride like I'm about to circle at any time

Can leg yield 1 stride or 1 stride travers to start

If gets stuck, sideways for 2, straight for 1

Hands more together

Inside hand up to block the change

Before change, current outside leg back and on to almost counter flex, then fwd and new inside hand up

Straight for 2 strides after the change

Quarter piro through corner

CIRCLE W PIRO CANTER

Ride quarterline to quarterline

Travers to get the collection then can ride shoulder in

CORNER

Ride slightly in, shoulder in/leg yield out a stride

Quarter pirouette into corner

Straighten shoulders

MEDIUM

Outside leg on back outside hand back to keep shoulder angle

Hands up sit forward into it and enjoy the hoon so I don't freak the fuck out

1-2 strides travers piro canter then shoulder in to bring back

CORNER

S/I leg yield a stride then quarter piro

CHANGES

Quarter piro then almost piro again onto diagonal

Keep him off that outside leg (leg yield away from new inside leg)

Up in the changes then collect the stride before. Count to 4 then collect change (6 strides) so they aren't 4s. Proper whack w the outside leg on the right to left change.
