How to improve your horse's jump by trotting the vertical. As riders, we are always looking to improve your horses' ability to rock back and jump cleanly and smoothly. Trotting the vertical is a great exercise to teach the horse to be quick on his feet because he isn't carrying all the weight on his shoulders. For a horse that gets quick or excited, it is a great way to start as we take all the speed out of the equation and the horse has to solely rely on his hind end to push him up and off the ground. It is also a great exercise for the rider to develop better balance and to work on the release of your hands.
