Staggers by Daniel Goddard https://padlet.com/c2_gbr/staggers Understanding Staggers en-us 2018-02-19 20:00:24 UTC 2023-02-16 06:29:04 UTC hello@padlet.com Key Points c2_gbr https://padlet.com/c2_gbr/staggers/wish/233043202
  • Look where you want to go, not just at the gates (creating width)
  • Opening up gates
  • Having speed (don't get too caught out)
  • Movement in the direction we want/creating movement
  • Tracking (tail following bow)
  • Priming turn
  • No waiting/drifting

  • Do we: Turn above - Turn Though - Turn after each gate of the stagger

    Consider - 
    • Turning above/though/after
    • Using feature
    • Strokes

    Maybe draw lines on the picture and annotate stokes or key things?

    Options are Forwards/Spin

    Look at a stagger

    Plan your turns, 
    on each turn will you

    Turn above?
    Turn though?
    Turn after?


    Draw course and write down your plan.


    Do 1st run and compare your planned turns with your actual turn.
    Make a new plan or keep old plan for run 2 and write this down.
    Do 2nd run and compare your planned turns with your actual turn.
    Make a new plan or keep old plan for run 3 and write this down.
    Do 3rd run and compare your planned turns with your actual turn.

    See Attached photos for spreadsheet template and example

    Other Challenges

    Can you do every gate on the course turning above?
    Can you do every gate on the course turning though?
    Can you do every gate on the course turning after?

    Can you do every gate as a spin?
