What is a western canter called?
A western canter is often referred to as a lope. It is a three-beat gait that is commonly used in Western-style riding disciplines.
What is the sequence in canter?
A Canter is a three-beat gait. First is one hind leg, then the opposite hind with the diagonal fore, then the opposite fore, the leading limb. The canter done in a circle, i.e. a riding ring, is described by the "lead," that is, which is the foreleg that ends (or begins!) the gait. A proper lead when in a circle is the inside lead. A gallop differs from a canter not just because it is faster, but because at one point, all four legs are off the ground. At a canter, at least one leg is always on the ground.
What do you call a fast canter?
There is no difference, the only difference is the hoof beats. So it is just called a canter.
Why do some horses canter on the wrong leg?
Horses are like humans, they are "handed" when it comes to picking up leads. Most horses have a lead that is more comfortable for them so they automatically pick up the comfortable lead when asked to canter. If you are going to the right and the horses comfortable lead is the left, then it may pick up the left lead even when asked to pick up the right one. Training and strengthening the weak or less comfortable side can help a horse pick up the correct lead when asked.
Are you supposed to be on your inside or outside lead for horses?
When you canter, the inside leg is siupposed to be leading, so your inside lead.
What is a horse lead?
A horse lead is either the lead rope or, if you are talking about the gait, such as: trot, canter, walk, lope, gallop etc. the lead is actually like the horse being right handed or left handed. If the horse's lead is normally left, that means the horse's left front foot at a canter will be in front of the right.
How do you know if your horse is on the correct lead?
If your horse is on the correct lead in canter, around a corner the horses inside leg should lead first, so that there is enough balance. If the horse is on the wrong lead, the outside leg will lead and it will be harder for it to get round as it is unbalanced to the strides will be choppy and bouncy to ride.
How do you change your lead when cantering a horse?
you can learn the flying lead change or you can go back to the walk and ask him to canter again.
What is a left-lead canter?

Flying lead change horseback riding?
Are you asking what flying lead changes are? When a horse is cantering one of two front legs will lead. This is called a lead. A lead change is when a horse changes direction, bend and lead legs in the air. Leads are important for balance for horses. Lead changes are done at the canter in all aspects of riding.
Why do you put your outside leg back to canter?
it encourages the horse to strike off onto the correct lead. as the outside hind leg is the horse's first leg which it uses in canter it encourages them to use it.
What is a shape with all points the same distance from the canter called?
Sphere.
