Draykun's First Vertical Flip!!!

A great discussion on flipping develops out of some video analysis of Draykun's first flip. 

Last Sunday we had a Disc Dog Drop In, like usual, and one of our good friends from Paws With A Cause, Becky, came over to work on sustaining drive with her dog Rhythm.

Rhythm is an awesome mini-Aussie, also known as The Weasel, due to his sharp nose and tendency to offer the 'Aussie Smile' at the drop of a hat - he really looks like a weasel. Oh yeah, not only does he look like a weasel, he POPS like one - he's a huge leaper for his slight size.

Disc Placement for Flipping

The green lines radiating from the disc represent 2 possible trajectories for the disc. These trajectories are good suggestions, but will require tailoring to your dog, as each dog is different, so note them, but be ready to move them around a bit to suit your dog.
