RC challenge - GALICAN vs. SMART99 💪😁

Recently I have been invited to share some thoughts on different LENGTHS and HEIGHTS of DOG WALKS in connection to RC performance and also about the "pros and cons" of unifying those measurements in the future FCI competitions (so all DW on competitions would have to be of the same height and length) 🤩

Anybody who ever joined my RC classes knows, that my method of RC training is based on teaching dog to understand HOW and WHERE to hit regardless of the speed, height, distance,... So I basically work on muscle memory of the "actual hit" (and not for example on the "muscle memory of the striding pattern") and usually in those cases (with some training of course 😅), dogs have no problems running on different lengths or heights of DW, since they are from early stages on taught to think and do adjustments based on what is needed to "accomplish" a perfect hit at the end. And just to help my dogs with this generalisation even more, I have at home 2 DW- one GALICAN and one SMART99. Galican is in comparison to Smart99 lower and a bit longer. And as much as normally my dogs have no problems running on both, I decided to make a small test to see how Willa and Diliys would do, if I (randomly) alternate different types of DW in ONE RUN. Pleased to say they did as I expected (or at least hoped 😅) and that muscle memory of "perfect hit" is making things really clear for them regardless of the height, length and order of how the DW followed each other, since all hits were basically the same 🥰

In the video, Galican DW was closer to the camera and the wing position was on about 20 degree angle, so all entries on the DW were safe. In first option I was changing alternatively between both DW (to both directions) and at the end of video, I also tried to mix randomly between DW, to avoid any kind of pattern
