2012-01-16 Luxo Training Bits

Where I'm at with Luxo's training. Working on board stuff, and ball retrieves. My next steps is to use a board with an increased slant, and put the ball on a lower (this angle?) board. I also need to increase the jumpboard, since I know he'll willingly go over it. Also, need more ball to tug work - you can't see it, but he's still very interested in the ball over the tug.

Will he go to the board without you going up to it? I am not sure that he knows the board is part of the game as opposed to bouncing over the jump. When you do the jump work in the second half it looks like the same body movement (mind you it's 12:30 in the morning), so I'm wondering if he understands what you are asking from him. Bring the board to practice next week and we'll play with it.
