Cone: 2 | DoD: ?.?
|
Otherwise known as an Unnatural out-of-phase backcross. That means you are doing a backcross
following a snake (wavy) path, but you are leading the cross with the down hill leg, thus
sweeping to the leading foot side of the course. It's unnatural because when you cross,
you approach the cone blind, and somewhat awkwardly.
Invented by Michael Matonis in 1995(?).
Recall, the leading foot side of the course is that side in the course-frame, i.e. if you
are leading right, the leading foot side is the right side as you face downcourse.
Our example is leading with the right foot.
Cone 1: Open over the cone, going from leading foot side of the course to the other side. (travelling 45deg wrt dir. of course)
Transition: sweep back toward the course, initiating the cross
Cone 2: BCLR, travelling from left to right.
Transition: Sweep back toward the course, as you open in preparation for going over the next cone.
Cone 3: As cone 1. (WRR)

This pretty much is a variation. But I guess you could do it blind(folded), or alternate as you would
backcross, maybe lobotomize it somehow... Let me know what you come up with.
