How does the double rope help?

[HairOfTheDog]

I'm ground driving her... long lining or driving is an additional skill they can have, I can turn her with either rein to get more precision circle her, stop her, back her up or do figure 8's. Anything you could do under saddle.

It's better with a circingle like this, keeps the lines where they should be...

...but my circingle won't fit the pony, and the line around the pony's butt and touching her as she's learned to do was actually a good desensitizing lesson for her.
