Skyhoundz brings you…

Thank you to Juan Manual (DiscMundog) for inviting me to teach a seminar for his club members this past weekend! Everyone there was so accommodating and interested in learning more about the sport. The fields were awesome, questions were outstanding, and everyone seemed to have a great time. And, another first for me, we all had to board a boat to get to and from the fields (Friday-Sunday)! It was quite the adventure with many dogs wanting to jump into the water. One did but her owner and I were able to wrangle her back into the boat. Oh, and what would dinner be like at the Mall without an earthquake!!! I looked up from our table and I saw everybody flooding out to the exit, later to find out we had to vacate because there was an earthquake! Everyone got up and went outside and then when the all clear sign was given everyone went back to their tables and finished dinner. Another day, another earthquake! Next up on the schedule, a DiscDogathon next Saturday!

Congratulations to Alex Stein and Ashley Whippet on the 50th anniversary of the Ashley Whippet Invitational! This event was the first series of disc dog competitions. I know many of today's disc dog competitors are new to the sport, but I had the chance to meet Alex when Ashley was at his peak. He was an extraordinary athlete—something you had to see in person to truly appreciate. Photos and videos don't capture his skill. There were moments when it seemed like he would miss the catch, only for him to surprise everyone and make an incredible grab. I feel privileged to have watched him perform live and to have thrown to him in various stadium shows. Thanks to their contributions, the sport has gained immense popularity and led to the formation of other organizations like Skyhoundz, UFO, USDDN, and UpDog. We should all be thankful for their hard work and dedication.

We aren't done yet, but I have a quick update on today's XD field! Congratulations to Caitlyn Olvitt and GIR, who Q'd at the LCQ yesterday with a catch of 137.4', today set the MicroDog Women's World Record with a catch of 198'. And, she outthrew the MicroDog Men's winner! The previous MicroDog Women's record was 192' set by Jenelle Miller with Blink in 2019.

Results for the DiscDogaton and Xtreme Distance LCQs are now available on the Skyhoundz website. Awesome LCQs today but the day's highlight was Andrew Han's connection to Hype of 319.5' in Classic Plastic with an orange MaxQ Competition Standard disc. This was the first XD catch of over 100 yards in any division. Congratulations to them both! I can't wait to see what tomorrow brings!

We are at Camp Jordan in the ‘24 Last Chance Q for Xtreme Distance and DiscDogathon.

Skyhoundz️ 6 months ago

Reminder for those who are planning on setting up their tents at Camp Jordan on Sunday: "Camp Jordan competitor tent set-up: This year (2024), an AKC dog racing event will take place the weekend before our event, concluding by 3 pm on Sunday. Consequently, the field setup on Sunday will be delayed (probably until 4 pm at the earliest), and competitors may only set up their tents after MAD Dogs' completes its activities and clears the competitor tent setup area. "After field set-up has been completed competitors will be allowed to set up their tents in authorized areas. Competitors will be able to set their tents up only after Skyhoundz officials Ray Lowman or Frank Montgomery give the OK to do so. Tents set up without permission, or in areas not authorized for tents, will be moved or removed." Thank you.

Skyhoundz️ 6 months ago

Just a reminder: "At all LCQs, the number of Q spots awarded, per competitor, will be the same as the number offered at Open Qualifiers (two per competitor plus any Pairs Distance/Accuracy or Pairs Freestyle earned). Please note: This rule modification does not affect the total number of Qs available at LCQs, just per-person limits." We welcome your input regarding next year's LCQ Qs rules.

Important Skyhoundz Competition Announcements... Rollers/Long Lines: The primary focus of the Skyhoundz World Canine Disc Championship series has always been two-fold: to honor disc dogs for catching flying discs and to encourage new participants to engage in the sport. We have frequently been asked whether novice disc dogs (regardless of their thrower's experience) are permitted in competition to chase rollers (a throw where the disc is rolled on the ground, not thrown in the air) to build confidence and experience in front of other dogs, people, and spectators. Additionally, we have been asked if they could participate with their dogs on a long line (a long leash). Our response has consistently been affirmative. To formalize this into a rule without conflicting with competitors vying for disc-catching awards, World Records, and World Championship Qualifier slots, we will allow individuals who believe this would benefit their dogs to compete by throwing rollers (except in Freestyle) and/or participating with their dogs on a long line. The condition is that anyone choosing to do so must compete in an "Audit" class, understanding that they will not be eligible for awards, records, or Q slots. Furthermore, we advise all our hosts not to charge these competitors any fees to participate or, if they feel they must, charge them a minimal amount. Notwithstanding the above, due to the time constraints, no competitor will be accepted in any LCQ Audit class. Important World Championship announcements: Camp Jordan competitor tent set-up: This year, an AKC dog racing event will take place the weekend before our event, concluding by 3 pm on Sunday. Consequently, the field setup on Sunday will be delayed (probably until 4 pm at the earliest), and competitors may only set up their tents after MAD Dogs' completes its activities and clears the competitor tent setup area. DiscDogathon World Championship Schedule: If you have participated in the DiscDogathon World Championship in recent years, you are familiar with the high number of entries we receive, making it unfeasible to complete the event all on Wednesday (under optimal weather conditions). While there are several ways we could reduce the number of entries, currently, as the Xtreme Distance World Championship held the day before (Tuesday) is considerably less crowded, we will conduct all DiscDogathon Bullseye, Spot Landing, and TimeTrial competition rounds on that day. Nevertheless, the Xtreme Distance World Championship contest will maintain priority regarding the running order. Camp Jordan World Championship Schedule Tuesday, September 10, 2024 Xtreme Distance – World Championship (All Divisions) 7:45 am XD Competitor Briefing 8:00 am XD Competition Begins DiscDogaton – Bullseye, Spot Landing, and TimeTrial (Open & MicroDog) 9:15 am DD Competitor Briefing 9:30 am DD Competition Begins Wednesday, September 11, 2024 8:00 am — DD Competitor Briefing 8:30 am — DD Competition Begins DiscDogathon – Freestyle & Pairs Distance/Accuracy (Open & MicroDog)
