One hell of a weekend

Our first competition in Pärnu in 2016 (2.-3. of July) and right away we had 8 runs through two days, that is definitely our record, running so many courses in such a short period. But I have to disappoint everyone, because there is not much good to tell about this competition. On Saturday, when the judge was Inga Järv, we got all four runs DSQ. Two of those were jumping courses and two agilitycourses, but somehow I managed to lead badly and Erk twice missed the slalom entrance. For some reason Erk did not get in form one end on two courses, but got in form the other end on two other courses. I just could not figure it out why he missed it from one end. Also that was the first time when Erk completely ignored contacts and started to jump from A-frame and dog-walk. On Sunday we did a bit better and also the judge was different - Svetlana Zolotnikova. So in first jumping course we got 2. place, that was our best result that weekend. Next three runs went almost like the day before with awful leading and disastrous results. One DSQ and two pointless runs - 13. place (10 points) and 11. place (15 points). I guess the second day went a bit better because it was cloudy and slightly raining and we usually do better on days like these. On Saturday it was hot as hell and I was sluggish and Erk looked exhausted aswell. Photos by Kaisa Tsäro.

Perfect example of jumping over the contact area
