Sorry for my double post,i hadnt seen casiraghiTrios reply to my question.
Understandable, as the Juliette answer is now very obscured by all my show jumpings jargon and ramble. It's such a fascinating topic. I love learning more about jumpings. I think with hibou, scooter and other jumping riders hanging around, we will learn even more, the 'real deal'. All that I know about it is from years of trying to understand the results tables! I think I am too old now to try it, and maybe I don't want to anyway, because it looks so hard! I read a book about it once and I was amazed at how much you must understand geometry to be really good at it?! Did you know it? I didn't! The objective, apparently, is to make three perfect 45-degree angles: in the approach, the jump, and the landing!! That is the key to a "perfect" jump, apparently! Cool huh? Or maybe it's just me! I am so weird like that....
