Sequence of a jump

A jump can be divided into four parts: the approach, takeoff, suspension in the air, and landing. You can approach a jump in a trot or a canter-both must be balanced and rhythmical. The takeoff has to be at the right distance for the hose to clear the fence. Once the pony has landed, do not hesitate. Ride it straight on toward the next fence.
