In a post turn, continuous rotation means the possibility of multiple opportunities
to mistakenly cue your dog to go forward with inappropriately timed shoulder
rotation away from the dog.

Instead of trying to pull your dog

your inside shoulder...

...Imagine letting your dog
constantly bump up against the
inside of your outside shoulder,

opportunities to inadvertently
give your dog a cue to go forward
rather than turn. See Figure 2.
Many people view a post turn
as something to pull their dog
through with their inside shoulder. However, when there is a
jump involved, this means your
dog is always reading the cue of
your turning your back on him,
which is likely to send him farther forward as you execute this
maneuver rather than cueing him
to wrap the jump as tightly as
you had expected or hoped for.
Rather than moving your shoulders ahead of your dog through a
post turn, try imagining that you
are staying slightly rotated toward

then continuously rotate away
from him—staying just ahead of
him—so he can move through the
turn. See Figure 3.

The Exercise
This is more of an experiment
than an exercise—your goal is to
find out just how much (or how
little) shoulder rotation away
from your dog he can cope with.
As long as your dog keeps the
bar up on the jump, you can feel
free to reward him. What you
will be doing in this exercise is
exploring the timing of your post
turns so that you can do all sorts
of different kinds of post turns,
depending on the situation.
