No More 7" Base Slats! Height Range Change to 7"-14"
In October 2006, NAFA required that all height requirements be topped with a 1" slat. We have always liked the idea of using a 1" slat on top of the base slat for the safety of the smaller dogs. Height requirements are now in the range of 7"-14" instead of the older 8"-16". We have now updated our website to eliminate the choice of base slat height and are still offering the 6+1 Conversion Kit if you still have the older base slats and need to update your sets.
Due to the change in height range requirements, we have changed the 4" slats in our racing sets to 3", but are still providing the three 1" slats per hurdle.

See our Ad in the March 2010 Issue of DogSport Magazine. DogSport Magazine is a wonderful magazine. It has something in there for every dog lover, not just Flyball. The part we Iove best are the veterinary advice columns and the questions asked by avid readers. If you subscribe to this magazine and see our ad, we would love to hear about it.

We've made a material change. We've decided to use a Polycarbonate plastic instead of the previously used Acrylic in our Clear BoxJump Boards. Polycarbonate is more impact resistant and less brittle than Acrylic, making it an ideal material for use in our clear training slats. Better material at the same price, you can't beat that deal!
