Agility at Dampremy

Agility in the morning!

Disqualified, twice, but she did a good job. The jumping is my fault: she slipped in the yellow tunnel, and I was afraid she might be hurt. That made me lose my focus.

At the agility, she missed a door inside the slalom and I didn’t react in time… She also likes to steal the A-frame, but I was ready for it.

The judge was José Vandy from Belgium.

This weekend, we were in France for an agility competition. I am not happy with my performance on Saturday. We got disqualified on all three courses.

The judge was Florie Steen from France.

After a good night in the tent with Kaïa, Sunday was much better: we won the two agility but got disqualified on the jumping.

Sadly, we did not make any faultless runs. But signatures are just the cherry on top of a delicious cake.

The judge was Frederic Lorette from France.

We didn’t get any signatures, but it was a great competition. I don’t know what happened on the first agility. It was a bit messy, probably because of the 2 hours journey.

We managed to beat Kaïa’s personal speed record on the first jumping. She reached 6.27 m/s for the first time!

Judge was Marleen Haeneefstingels from Belgium.

After a 3-hour journey, we arrived at Thalfang for a 3-day competition! We also enjoyed Germany’s countryside with a 7.5 km hike. Beautiful country.

This time, we bring home the first signature in grade 2! It is only the second competition at this level for Kaïa (excluding Opens). 5 more to go!

First grade 2 signature!

This is it, the last round. Previous rounds were hard, but this is another level.

Not everything was good. We didn’t succeed in any of the courses. But it highlights all the weaknesses and shows what you need to work on.

I’m still happy with what I did.
