Grit's Black Diamond "Charlie" See his nice rolling canter on both leads. (move your mouse over to start)
The canter is performed much as with other breeds, but the walking horses use their huge stride to carry this relaxed gait to new, ground-covering speeds. Always three-beat, the canter must remain forward moving and performed in a diagonal manner on the right or left leads. The Walking horse engages their deep backend reach to elegantly lift and gracefully flow forward and down in a controlled and collected manor. Thus, the canter gives us an easy rise and falling motion of the rocking chair from which the gait takes its name. The western horse performs a comparable three beat lope with the same ground covering smoothness, but with slightly less elevation. It should remain economical, straight and efficient on both leads.
