front leg movement Explanation: Is it not just 'front leg movement', which may be correct or defective ('dishing' being one defect). biljardera - intåad frambensrörelse medlem.spray.se/ankilundberg88/farskallarna.html Dishing is the term used to describe an inward swing of the hoof with each stride; winging and paddling describe outward-swinging foot flight. Angled "hinges" in the knees, fetlocks or, very rarely, the feet produce these deviations from straight forward-and-back motion. www.equisearch.com/care/lameness/eqgaits2880/ He called our attention to undesirable specifics of form, such as hanging front legs, jumps that peaked either before or after the center of the jump, You have never seen front leg movement as expressive as his (the horse's). personal.monad.net/~ctolman/journal2.html -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2004-05-17 18:02:04 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Yes, sorry, \'dishing\' - was having a little trouble with \'intåad\' (~intoed [EN]) |

winging or paddeling Explanation: "Winging " is defined as a lateral deviation of the front limbs when observed from front or back which can cause interference and lack of extention and suspension. There is a mistaken notion that Iberian horses "paddle" or "wing" with their front legs. In actuality, the movement seen as "winging" is a lateral looseness of knees, pasterns and feet.
