How do you make a horse gallop?

Answer 1

He simply starts moving faster and taking longer strides. The sequence of footfalls is precisely the same, but the longer strides means that the double beat that normally accompanies the canter is changed to two individual beats.

Answer 2

You warm up your horse, and then on a LONG stretch, when your in canter, lean forward, put your hands on the horses neck and stand up a little in your stirrups, then push forward in the seat and give your horse a strong squeeze, or a few hard kicks. You need to have your reins short, as gallop is a very fast pace and is normally hard to stay on your horse, hard to control your horse and hard to stop your horse so you really need to have short reins. You horse needs to be fit otherwise it could really badly pull a muscle. Also its hoofs need to be strong as the horses weight rests on one hoof at a time.

Answer 3

Galloping is the next gait after canter, and is the fastest. You should not attempt to gallop unless you have a good, professional instructor and open space- never gallop in the school, as there is not enough room.

Picking up gallop is actually quite easy- your stirrups should be shortened in advance.

From a canter, rise in your seat so that you are a few inches above the saddle, and are leaning slightly forward, so that your wait is in the stirrups and the horse is free to move. Shorten the reins, but don't pull on them, give the horse it's head, and make sure you are fully in control in the canter. Then, when you feel ready, squeeze the horse with your calves, keeping your heels down, and the balls of your feet in the stirrups- if this does not move the horse onward, make an encouraging noise, and squeeze harder, urging the horse on. When your horse picks up gallop, maintain this position and everything should be fine. To move back to a canter, very slightly pull back the reins, like they are elastic bands, and sit back down in the saddle gently.

Galloping is fun, but be careful!
you have to either sqeeze or kick to get the horse to canter then encourage him/her to move forward with a solid sqeeze or kick but if they ignore your leg then give them a solid smack with the crop

Answer 4

Well first of all the horse should be properly warmed up first, then once it is you can move up through the gaits until the horse is cantering. Next to signal the gallop you should lean forward and come up out of the saddle slightly, letting your knees and ankles flex to absorb the impact of the gait. As you do this you should squeeze just slightly with one or both calves and the horse should move forward into the gallop.

Answer 5

---- The easiest way is from the trot and you sit and slide your outside leg back! Hope this helps!

REMEMBER: The canter is a hard gait to ride. Become more experienced first or make sure an expert rider/trainer is watching and helping.

Answer 8

I love horseland!!! You use the arrows to move your horse around the world. To trot you have to hold down the "ctrl" key while moving. To gallop you triple click an arrow then hold it.
