Big Air is the long jump equivalent for canine athletes.At speeds over 20 mph,Big Air dogs catapult off the end of a 40-foot dock into a 28,000-gallon pool to retrieve a floatable object,like their favorite toy.Jump distances are measured from the end of the dock to where the base of the dog's tail breaks the water. Extreme Vertical is a high jump contest in which the dog launches upward in order to knock down a bumper suspended over the water.Runs are shorter,and speed is reduced in order to achieve maximum height about 8 feet from the dock. Speed Retrieve is a sport where teams race against the clock.Each competing dog runs,jumps, swims,and retrieves an object located on an extender at the end of the pool,at a distance of 58 feet from the starting block on the dock.
