Why Contactacoat?
The current practice of sand in paint to help provide traction is no longer adequate for the increased speed of dogs over contact equipment coupled with the angles of approach set by some judges. The Contactacoat rubber chip provides the ultimate in traction for our dogs giving them confidence to approach at ever increasing speeds. Although not a scientific study but more anecdotal evidence from judges and competitors who have experienced Contactacoat surfaced equipment, dogs miss contacts less often due to the confidence it gives them travelling at the higher speeds we constantly demand of them. The only thing handlers have to get used to is the lack of sound!!
