What r some jumps?

Question

What r some jumps? like the names of them with a pic of what they look like. pleaze and thank u. lol

Answer 1

Vertical (or Upright) - a jump that consists of poles or planks placed one directly above another with no spread, or width, to jump.

Oxer - two verticals close together, to make the jump wider. Also called a spread.

Square Oxer: Both top poles are of an equal height.

Ascending Oxer (usually called a Ramped Oxer): The furthest pole is higher than the first.

Descending Oxer (usually called an Offset Oxer): The furthest pole is lower than the closest.

Swedish Oxer: The poles slant in opposite directions, so that they appear to form an "X" shape when seen head on.

Triple Bar - Is a spread fence using three elements of graduating heights.

Cross rail - not commonly used in sanctioned horse shows, and sometimes called a "cross-pole," two poles crossed with one end of each pole is on the ground and on jump standards so that the center is lower than the sides. Used at small shows and for schooling purposes to help the horse jump in the center of the fence.

Wall - This type of jump is usually made to look like a brick wall, but the "bricks" are constructed of a lightweight material and fall easily when knocked.

Hogsback - A type of spread fence with three rails where the tallest pole is in the center.

Filler - This is not a type of fence but is a solid part below the poles, such as flower boxes or a rolltop. It can also be a gate.

Combination - usually 2 or 3 jumps in a row, with no more than 2 strides between each. 2 jumps in a row are called double combinations, and 3 jumps in a row are triple combinations. If a horse refuses the second or third element in one of these combinations, they must jump the whole combination again, not just the obstacle(s) they missed.

Fan: the rails on one side of the fence are spread out by standards, making the fence take the shape of a fan when viewed from above.

Open water: a wide ditch of water

Liverpool: a ditch or large tray of water under a vertical or oxer

Joker - a tricky fence comprising only a rustic (or unpainted) rail and two wings. The lack of filler makes it difficult for a horse to judge their proximity to the fence as well as the fence's height, making it a tricky obstacle usually found only in the upper divisions, and illegal in some competitions.

..that's all I can think of that people didn't mention(unless they already did and I didn't catch it)

Then there's fillers like rolltops, flowerboxes, sometimes low walls(usually high ones are jumps in and of itself), some people get really creative with their fillers.

Answer 4

Cross rail-two polls that cross to make an X.

Vertical- a single rail straight across.

Oxer- two vertical set very close to each other

Liverpool- a jump with a bed of water that the horse also has to jump.

Roll Top- often a vertical with a gras covered ilongated semi-shpere.
