lucyandmeg Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 Following on from the world record thread, i was just wondering if anyone knew how much of a difference the different types of boxes make on the speed of the dog? We currently use a boomerang box (the moon shaped one. ) THe dogs in our team are fast, averaging about 4.5 over high jumps, but the turns could be better. Looking at the other type onthe net, they claim that they improve the turn, and i notice that touch and go used the flatter fronted box. I vaguely remember that when meg did her 4.10 run (over low jumps) in the singles at botley they were using a flat fronted box. Is it worth buying a new box, and does it put more stress on their joints using the flatter fronted box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetpops Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 I always wondered how much difference they make. I have no experience with them, but they always look a bit scary being so much more vertical than ours (we have the same as yours). I'll be interested to see what people have to say, sorry I'm not much help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
