I used “Left” since the jump was pretty much even with the tunnel mouth, so since she didn’t pass the jump until she entered the tunnel, I didn’t read that as a wrap. Am I missing something? I know the angle isn’t ideal.
Turn Away
Yes, you were correct earlier – the camera is reversed. When the view is vertical instead of horizontal, I have it on selfie mode so I can see what I’m filming. Good help is hard to find! The white stuff is coming!Obstructed lines. We had more trouble with the wraps around the cones than taking the parallel path to the tunnel. In order to get around the tunnel, should the verbal be sufficient to take the jump, or should I have given a ‘get out’ to get her past the tunnel if I don’t want to get stuck behind the tunnel mouth?
Threadles. I accidentally used my backside wrap verbal and after a few reps they seemed to be ok with it. Can you foresee an issue with that since the verbal still means: take the backside and wrap the wing? I have an “In” verbal for the threadle slice. It’s a bit far; hopefully you can see ok.
Oh, I see what you mean about the video. My videographer must have double tapped the record button and gotten it backwards.
Oh, that sucks about Facebook!
YouTube isn’t glitching: we gave up after I couldn’t get it. I’ll try a break arm, thanks.
Oh, one thought as an add-on to the teeter course: using blankets, cardboard, tarps, etc under the down side to generalize surfaces. I discovered at a sand arena trial that we only remember how to 2o2o on grass. Oops. My hubby thought I should make shallow boxes with different surfaces in them to switch in and out. LOL
Ok, we will keep working on the discriminations. Sorry for the puppy screaming! We were babysitting a BC/Lab puppy and she was not impressed with missing out on the ball and the running.
Here is our attempt at the layering:
Here is another go at our jump/tunnel discriminations. River is better than Chief for some reason! I tried to not move, and then move towards both (and not at any one in particular).
Hi Tracy, trying to get caught up here. So dark, so soon now!
This one was supposed to post first but we had upload issues. Tunnel exits: https://www.wevideo.com/view/2426298827
I called a Right on a tunnel at our trial this weekend and she nailed it!! We got our first title as a result- woo hoo!
That makes so much sense about the directionals – they are already different! Thank goodness. I can’t remeber if you saw it, but Chief won overall highest points at Regionals this year! The ‘Nascar’ lines are a great analogy; I will definitely consider that in the future – I’ve always had a hard time figuring put when I should really connect for a tighter turn and when going wide would be better to maintain speed. If you’ve got some insight on that for River, I’d appreciate it.
