Hittade detta på en Parelliblogg: Känner mig rätt stolt över att jag faktiskt gjort det med Zapatera :) Kanske skulle jag försöka nu igen och se om jag har en confident häst med bra attityd, det kan vara "Interesting" Ska försöka hitta assesmentbandet förresten ock kolla vad jag tycker nu. Har en känsla att det var rätt mycket rightbrain involverat där.( Lika mycket på både häst och ryttare)



I have listed the Level 2 tasks from the OLD version that are not included in the NEW Level 2 assessment. I am playing with these tasks to bridge into the Level 3


ON-LINE

* Play the friendly game in all zones with a plastic bag attached to a carrot stick
* Using a plastic bag, drive your horse backwards then yield the hindquarters a full circle and the forequarters a full circle on both the right and the left sides of the horse
* Send your horse into a trailer while sitting on the fender. Count to ten and then bring him back to you, without getting off the fender.
* With your hand on Zone1, back your horse 20 feet.
* 'Push' (porcupine) your horse sideways for at least 20 feet
* Place the 22' line around a front leg and play the yo-yo game.

LIBERTY

* Drive the hindquarters 360 degrees, both ways (front feet stay still - within a hula hoop type area)
* Drive the forequarters 360 degrees, both ways (hind feet stay still - within a hula hoop type area)
* Get your horse to follow you for one circuit (within 3ft of student)
* Play the circling game to the right and the left then ask your horse to face you
* Send your horse sideways in both directions along a fence
* Simulate paste-worming your horse

FREESTYLE
Bareback (pad allowed) & Cherokee Bridle

* Mount your horse (help from an obstacle or person is allowed)
* Trot a figure 8
* Stop straight and back your horse up for at least 10 feet
* Canter for 60 seconds
* Bend your horse to a stop and make an emergency dismount

Saddle, Snaffle Bridle & Carrot Stick

* Mount your horse from the ground, then from a fence (from the indian side)

With a Carrot Stick (leave reins over horn)

* Trot a figure 8
* Canter along arena fence, use a Carrot Stick to make downward transitions: to the trot, walk and back-up in both directions

With Snaffle Bridle

* Ease your horse into a gallop for at least 30 seconds
* Come back to the canter to prove your horse is settled
* Still in a canter, place your wrists under your reins and show four flying lead changes through a series of S bends
* Slow down to a back-up by lifting your wrist into the air
* Using any equipment or none at all, show something imaginative you can do with your horse

FINESSE

* While mounted, unbridle your horse (leaving the bridle on the fence)
* Place the savvy string around your horse's neck and ride backwards and forwards to the right and left then return to your bridle and put it back on your horse (while mounted)
* Go from a casual to concentrated rein to obtain a soft feel
* Starting on a casual rein, show three yo-yos from trot to back-up using a 9-step back-up technique
* Back your horse through an L pattern
* Using a concentrated rein, move your horse's hinquarters with an indirect rein then flow into moving the forehand with a direct and supporting rein, one after the other, in a continuous flow
* Show a full rotation on the hindquarters using a direct and supporting rein, one to the right, one to the left
