Extreme Vertical is the high jump for dogs.  The bumper hangs 8’ away from the dock and can be anywhere from 4'6" and above the top of the dock in two inch increments.  The dog is given the option to use 20’ of the dock to run, jump, and either grab or knock down the bumper.  They pick their starting height and jump until they have two misses. The score for the event is their highest successful grab. If you have a successful grab at the event, you receive at least a participant ribbon.
