Once you start going over cross rails, how much longer before the rails get raised higher?

Question

I know it all depends on your level but typically what is the time line for jumping? Is it something like 3 months of cross rails and then very gradually the jumps get higher or does it typically move quickly once going over the cross rails?

Answer 1

depends on the horse and your ability. if you are just starting jumping get very solid on x-rails because this is the foundation for higher jumping.

Answer 2

There is no time line, it depends on how good you are, and if you have your own horse or are riding a school horse. There are so many factors that play into it, there is no timel ine, get comfy with your height, and it'll work it's way up.

Answer 3

Not 3 months. The better you are the faster you will move. I moved up ny the next month!

Answer 4

you can raise thge jumps as quickly as you'd like, if your horse is an experienced jumper. if he is, then raise them as you get more comfortable. never over-do it though, only advance higher if you're 100% comfortable at the current height you're jumping.
