Both horse and rider remain straight.  No bending.  Less change of a 
fall.  One rein remains at normal riding level to keep horse's head 
straight forward.  Opposite rein lifts straight up which will either 
slow or stop horse depending on how much lift you use.  Practice this on 
the ground first.  It is very easy to teach and works beautifully.  
After the horse becomes used to this, it is not necessary to lift the 
one rein so high.
