well jumping over a low lying pole isnt exactly jumping, it is more a way to measure your skills of working with strides. if you get on your 17hh horse, make sure you have either a bareback pad or strong legs. hold onto her mane if you must. jumping is something that shouldnt be self taught, because it can be dangerous
