Agility Nuts 20/06/09 - 5 Fault Day!!

Jumping:
For some reason Jem got over excited and didn't see one of the jumps and so did a funny little twiddly bit getting us 5 faults, she finished 13th - 23.41s (w=20.60)

Tunnel Torment Agility:
Brill round but again she got over excited and did a twiddly bit (tis v odd as I am not aware she has done this before!) again getting us 5 faults - time was she was exactly 3 seconds faster than the winner and finished on 5th - 27.75!!

Helter Skelter:
The first and only course of the day with weaves in! They were second from the end and she did all 6 perfect first time sadly she then knocked the higher pole on the spread the last obstacle so another 5 faults - I thought she would do this as we havn't really trained spreads so definitely something we need to work on bless her. Pen was judging this one and gave us a judges special because it was the first time that in competition when I told Jemma weaves she actually looked straight at the weaves and was focused on them and doing them right bless her - hopefully we will get more weave practise tomorrow - that is something I never thought I would say!!! She finished 13th - 29.54 (w=27.98)

Agilty:
She did very nicely in this one but knocked the second to last pole so yup you guessed it giving us another 5 faults. She did this (and pos knocked the spread) because I knew we were going clear and so went go go go to try and speed her up that bit and i think that by doing this she did up the speed but kind of forgot what she was doing and so didn't pick her feet up enough bless her. She finished 12th but again in this course she would have been first on her time - 23.25, 1.06s faster than winner.

In pairs we paired up with a lady we didn't know and she went first and went clear but then forgot to take the baton, jem went clear until the last jump which she ran round, I think because I assumed she would take it and didn't work her properly right to the end so yet again we had 5 faults!!!

Its a knockout she went out in the first round bless her.
