The judge was Elpida Ismael from Greece.

There were a lot of misunderstandings on this course, but she performed the weave poles amazingly well.

I was pretty happy with the start up until the long jump. I didn’t handle that section correctly. Looking back, it was a poor choice, and I should have been to the left of the long jump.

The judge was Zzusa Veres from Portugal.

My overconfidence cost us the double tunnel. It was simply too far and slightly in the dark. I knew it was a long shot, but I gave it a try.

A small handling mistake at a jump, and she took the obvious obstacle. The finish could have been cleaner. I don’t think I made the best choice there.

The judge was Philipp Cottet from Switzerland.

We started the weekend in the best possible way. The course was not perfect but we ended with just one refusal. This allowed us to step onto the podium in third place.

I recalled her way too weakly after the long jump and she carried her speed into the wrong jump. I am still really happy, especially with the weave pole, she understood me perfectly.

That Sunday was colder than Saturday, I am not a morning person and I also did not get a good night of sleep or my morning hot shower. I could feel my muscles being cold, regardless of my usual warm up. In a nutshell: I was not feeling great.
But the show must go on!

The judge was Steffi Hundt from Switzerland.

I showed her several obstacles really poorly, and she saved me at least twice before my mistakes finally got us disqualified. I couldn’t run properly and was late many times.

On top of everything else, a new layer of difficulty was added for this run: dogs were constantly barking around the ring, and it was really hard for me to focus.
We had a really poor performance.

Yennefer

While Kaïa was running, Yennefer was an adorable little demon.

A competition for Saint Nicholas Day. It is also the last competition of the year, sadly.

The judge was Rolli Schiltz from Luxembourg.

Choosing the wrong option after the seesaw got us eliminated.

She missed a tight turn, went way too wide, and took the wrong tunnel.

The judge was Marcel Schlür from Germany.

Really fun jumping course. Too bad we got eliminated at the start. She took the tunnel after the first jump, and I restarted. It is not on the video.

Agility was great, but I just stood there, watching my dog do the weave poles instead of running past her. She took the A-frame because I was late.
