Double Figure Eight

 Goal(s) :

Modification of the federation's figure eight exercise. Perform 2 consecutive figure eights.

 Process :

The horse starts between two cones (1 and 2). The horse performs the first figure eight. To proceed to the second figure eight, it passes behind cone 1, circles around cones 3 and 4, then completes its figure eight. To finish, it circles around cone 4 and cone 2 to end where it started.

 Difficulties :

A classic on the lunge line, elastic, liberty, but distances can be varied. Move the cones closer to the rider's area for ease. The gap between the cones (e.g., bringing cones 1 and 2 closer makes the turns tighter and thus more challenging).
