Re: [RC] paso finos in endurance - Paul LatiolaisOn Wednesday, March 17, 2004, at 09:23 PM, Ed Kilpatrick wrote: they do very well in deep sand, because of the tri ple suspension.? while some larger, heavier, trotting horses seem to bog down in deep sand,? the paso fino just glides across it.? some of them do trot occasionally, usually when they are tired.?? That reminded me; I saw a farrier training video awhile back in which they claimed that the paso fino was the only gaited breed in which three feet are on the ground at one point during the 4-beat gait. That would make them a lot more stable. -Paul L. ===========================================================REAL endurance is sleeping in the tack compartment of your trailer w/the door open, and your horse snorts/snots on your forehead every 30 min! ~ Heidi Sowards ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ===========================================================
