I loveeeeeeeee icelandic horses, they are adorable, and they have really neat step. The Icelandic have two gaits in addition to the typical walk, trot, and gallop(center). They also say that those horses are the most comfortable to ride.

They are cute little things. I'm afraid my feet would drag the floor if I rode one though!

If I did my math right, they can be up to 14.2 hands - I could do that but yes, shorter stirrups. Probably would be better in my english saddle rather than my western one.
