It would not be called a Bonus gate if it wasn't hard to. Cool vid.

Only if that "Do Over" attempts could be applied to every day life like when I was in Highscool or how I asked my mife to marry me...lol.

What's with all the repositions? According to USRCCA rules, as soon as you reposition, the bonus points will not be awarded. Reverse and rollover penalties will not be assessed, but if you reposition or hit a gate(straddling is the same thing as hitting a gate) you're done.

Looked like a tough bonus gate for sure though.

That's good to know. We will have to look into that for the next comp.

I was just wondering if maybe you guys had adjusted the rules to fit your club, as that is allowed on the local level

We allow repo's on the bonus gate locally, and unlimited reverses. Basically it is a 2 minute free for all on the gate until you time out or hit a cone.

Ya That's what we did. It was my first time at a comp with a bonus gate. Thought it was cool especially because I cleared it.

Nice video Matt, thanks for posting it. It even looks like I clear it, especially with all the screeming :-P
