Hello Marci,

This thread is open to anybody but seeing your name, Marci, reminded me
how much fun it was at Eastern Mojave that year to actually ride
endurance and discuss things like "diagonals" while actually on
the horse and getting some instructions instead of writing on a
computer.

I change diagonals a lot but my horse still moves differently depending
on which diagonal I'm on. By the way, Marci, I am "diagonally
challenged" and still cannot tell which diagonal I'm on, left
or right and I try watching shoulders and am I rising in the post etc.
but I can tell he is bumping me higher on one diagonal because I'm
such a sensitive guy....@#$%&! bumpy horse.

So here is my question. Which diagonal should I ride more time on to help
even him out. The one with the higher bump or the smoother one?
