It will not cost you anything extra, and I can not see who purchased what. Rabbit jumping is a growing sport that is becoming increasingly popular all around Scandinavia. Rabbit jumping exist in other parts of the world as well but it is often not as big and organized as in Scandinavia. The goal is to jump cleanly over a set course within an allotted time. Rabbit show jumping or Kaninhop is modeled after horse show jumping, only on a much smaller scale to suit rabbits. Competitions have been held in several European countries. The cool thing about Rabbit Hopping is that it doesn't matter if your rabbit has a pedigree as long as your arm or if it was bought from a pet shop, it can still do it and WIN!!! Rabbit jumping is perfect for someone who want to spend time with their rabbit and do something fun together! History Rabbit jumping as a sport started in Sweden in the late 1970’s when the first rabbit club started to have competitions in rabbit jumping. In the beginning the rules were based on the rules of horse jumping however, over time the rules changed to better fit rabbits. In the start a lot of breeders were very skeptical of rabbit hopping and thought it was a short craze. In 1986 the sport started spreading all over Sweden. Back then it was held separately in two different parts of Sweden with no contact between each other. In 1987, the first national championship for "straight line easy course" was held in Stockholm, Sweden. In 1991 they met and merged the two groups as a subgroup to the Swedish rabbit breeders association. Rabbit jumping grew bigger still and could not develop as fast as needed. This lead to the formation of the organization we have today. September 3rd 1994 the Swedish Federation of Rabbit Jumping was established. The Swedish Federation of Rabbit Jumping is nationwide. Today they have about 800 members in about 20 affiliated clubs, which are all arranging competitions in rabbit jumping. There are competitions arranged almost every week somewhere in the country. The main task of the federation is to develop the sport and make sure the competitions are fair. They also make sure there are two Swedish championships held every year and an opportunity each year to educate judges for the sport. Another important thing they work with is to have a good connection and cooperation with other countries. Germany joined the other countries in starting their own rabbit hopping club in 2000. Organizations were established in Norway (2002) and Finland (2004). Training and participation with translations for a new set of rabbit hopping rules came from the judges committee in Denmark. 2001 brought forth the Rabbit Hopping Organization of America. The rules and guidelines for rabbit hopping were established for all Americans with the help of the judges committee in Denmark and with personal assistance from hopping judge Aase Bjerner. The American Hopping Association for Rabbits and Cavies (AHARC) was chartered with the American Rabbit Breeders Association in 2013. The rules and guidelines for this association were molded after R.H.O.A. and Denmark. The AHARC held the very first official national competition in the United States during the 2011 ARBA Convention in Indianapolis, IN. The performance competition for rabbits during 2013 ARBA convention in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania was a Mid Atlantic Rabbit and Cavy event. AHARC had the first national performance event for cavies during the 2014 ARBA TX convention. The American Hopping Association for Rabbits and Cavies is the national performance club in the U.S. for rabbits and cavies (guinea pigs) chartered by the American Rabbit Breeders Association (ARBA). Their Purpose is to help others learn about the performance sports of Rabbit Hopping, Rabbit Agility and Cavy Agility. They are a resource and place for people to locate information about performance events all over North America. AHARC is in the process of developing Rules and a Guidebook for their members. The Rules Committee is currently headed by Tammy Steele. Please contact Tammy at alikattbunnies@hotmail.com with any questions. National Specialty Club - This has been an amazing and interesting adventure. Most people don't realize how much work and commitment is required to start up a national level club. Being welcomed under the ARBA umbrella in 2013 as a National Specialty Club was a rare and long awaited opportunity Rabbit Agility was developed by the Canadian Hopping Club and by Dell Robins from Minnesota independently of each other. They call theirs a Rabbit Obstacle Course. However they do not use weave poles for their courses. The Canadian Rabbit Hopping Club, like a lot of things, had a very humble beginning. During their 2005/2006 4-H year members Amanda Greening (entering her 2nd year in the 4-H rabbit project) & Krysta Turner (entering her first year) were looking for a fun activity to round out their project. That's when they found a website from Denmark & a magazine on the sport of rabbit hopping, which is like dog agility, but just with jumps. Although they did not have Dutch rabbits, generally the rabbit of choice, they thought it looked like fun. The first order of business was to build jumps to use, which were made as part of the project. They also needed to get the rabbits used to wearing harnesses and being on a leash. To train them to jump, first you have to lay a pole on the ground near the base of the jump, so they get used to the idea that they are supposed to go over it. Then you put the poles in the jump cups, gradually raising them as the rabbits get better. The girls use film canisters to make the jump cups. The bunnies performed in some fun shows & at Achievement Day, but the first really big live performance was at 4-H on Parade, our big year end show for 4-H. The demonstration was run in a space beside the dairy show & about half way through they had emptied the stands from the dairy show. It was there they were also noticed by a representative of the Calgary Stampede, who requested them for 5 demos, including in front of the main Grand Stand Stage during the 2007 Family Day breakfast. Since then, they have performed at pet stores, the S.A.R.B.A. Easter event in Airdrie, Calgary Pet Expo, Chestermere rabbit show, & will be back at 4-H on Parade & performed in Edmonton on Canada Day 2008! Since this time, they have made many more appearances, to see a full list, check out our events & performances link. There are lots of new members & even more new rabbits! Check out our Meet the Stars link for a list of all the rabbits & their trainers! Each rabbit even has it's own story & song & some even have their own music video! We have added new equipment, going for more toward agility, with an "A" frame, tunnel, pause table, hoop jumps, bunny walk, teeter totter & most recently, the high jump & long jump. In the summer of 2011, Amanda saw previews for a Canadian version of the popular show America's Got Talent. She sent off the application & on September 14, 2011, Amanda with some club members & bunnies auditioned in Edmonton, Ab. for Canada's Got Talent. On October 18, 2011 the club performed in front of the live studio audience. Interesting CGT facts: In September over 3000+ auditioned in Edmonton for the show! Out of those, 80 made it to the stage in Calgary on October 18 & 19, 2011. From those 80, we were one of only 18 shown on national TV on March 5, 2012! While the club did not advance to the next round, we did not receive any X's & got a standing ovation from the studio audience. Since CGT, the club has taken a huge step forward from it's humble beginning of two girls looking for a new 4-H rabbit project! 2013 saw the beginnings of The Rabbit Hopping Society Of Australia also with the assistance of Aase and Rasmus Bjerner. In 2015 Freya Pocock Johansson founded Rabbit Hopping New Zealand.I (Freya Pocock Johansson) introduced Rabbit Hopping to New Zealand in the beginning of 2015 at The Christchurch Pet Expo, and have gone on to hold many successful demo days and practices in Christchurch, thanks to Lynette Peebles who also hosted them! Thanks to Kathy Davis, we also now have Rabbit Hopping on The North Island!!! Inspired by equestrian jumping events, rabbit enthusiasts in the Czech Republic recently organized a bunny hop competition as an early Easter celebration. A rabbit, a symbol of Easter, jumps over an obstacle during Rabbit Steeple Chase at the Old Town Square’s Easter market on April 14, 2014 in Prague, Czech Republic. There are federations both in Norway (since 2002) and Finland (since 2004). Denmark, Germany, UK, and USA also arrange rabbit jumping although they don’t have any federations. Hopefully the sport will grow and get even bigger all over the world. About rabbit jumping Some basic rules There are four different types of rabbit jumping; straight course, crooked course, high jump and long jump. THE CLASSES STRAIGHT: In straight course the rabbits are divided into 4 classes: Easy class, where the course has 8 - 12 jumps at max. 25 cm (9.8 inch.) high at a distance of 180 cm (70.9 inch.) between the jumps. Medium class with 10 - 14 jumps at max. 35 cm (13.8 inch.) at a distance of 200 cm (78.7 inch.) between the jumps, Difficult class also with 10 - 14 jumps and a distance of 200 cm (78.7 inch.), but with a max. at 40 cm (15.7 inch.) high. At last the Elite class with 12 - 16 jumps at max. 50 cm (19.7 inch.) at a distance of 220 cm (86.6 inch.) between the jumps. CROOKED: At crooked course there are also 4 classes and the highs are the same as at straight. The jumps are placed in an other way; more like show jumping for horses. You follow the numbers at the jumps. HIGH JUMP: High jump takes place by letting the rabbit hop over a jump, which can be put up to about 100 cm (39.4 inch.), and you gradually put one more rails on, till the last rabbit goes out. Each rabbit has 3 trials at each high. The world record today is 99½ cm (39.2 inch.) made of the rabbit "Tøsen" with the handler Tine Hygom from Horsens, Denmark. It was made at the cattle show in Herning June 1997. The rabbit id dead now. LONG JUMP: Long jump takes place at a jump, where you start at 60 cm - 80 cm (23.6-31.5 inch.), an the length is put out till the last rabbit goes out. Each rabbit has 3 trials at each length. A crooked course is a lot like a show jumping course for horses with turns and loops while on a straight course the jumps are placed on a straight line. The goal is, as said before, to jump cleanly through the course. For every jump knocked down you will receive one fault. There is always one judge counting the faults and one person taking the time of the race from start to finish. If the rabbit doesn’t jump straight over the jump but askew you receive one fault. The same happens if you lift the rabbit over a jump that isn’t already knocked down. If the rabbit jumps the course in the wrong order or exceeds the time limit it will be excluded and will not receive a placing. It is important that the rabbit jumps out of free will and isn’t forced. The rabbit has to be in front of the owner. The tracks have 8-12 obstacles (depending on the level of difficulty) that the leader (något annat) is supposed to help the rabbit through with as few faults as possible. The obstacles needs to be passed in the correct order for the equipage not to be excluded for taking the wrong way. The height of the obstacles also depends on the level of difficulty. There are four different levels to compete in and the heights of the obstacles in each of them are 30, 38, 45 and 50 cm. A rabbit has 2 minutes to complete the course, if the time runs out before the course is completed, the rabbit is disqualified. In straight track the obstacles are placed in a row and in the winding track in a logically turned order, but not in a distinct pattern like an L, S or something like that (it should look almost like a horse jumping track). For each obstacle that is knocked down the rabbit and the leader (the ekuipage) gets one fault. You are also penalized with one fault if you choose to lift the rabbit over an intact obstacle, if the rabbit jumps over it the wrong way, that is adrift (criss-crossing or in between the bars, if the rabbits go over the start marker before it is allowed, and after three corrections. A correction is when the leader gives the rabbit a new run-up for an obstacle. Corrections are not taken into account at the lowest level of difficulty. The winning rabbit is the one with fewest number of faults. If two or more rabbits have tied for the same placing the one with the shortest time will be the winner. When winning or earning a placing (the number of placings depend on the number of participants) the rabbit will gain one promotion point with which the rabbit climb in the levels. In Sweden they call it a “promotion stick”. If the rabbit doesn’t receive any faults at all it will automatically receive a promotion stick. In straight and crooked course there are four official levels; easy, medium, difficult and elite. Older rabbits can compete in the veteran level and beginners can choose to compete in the unofficial mini level. The levels differ in height and length of the jumps but also in number and technical difficulties of jumps. The mini course is just an introductory course. In order to progress from easy to medium, etc. a rabbit has to earn promotion points. Rabbits are placed according to the number of faults they have (such as knocking a rail down) time only comes into play if 2 placing rabbits have tied for the same placing. High jump and long jump have different rules. Here the winner is the rabbit who jumps the highest or the longest. There is only one jump in high- and long jump but it is higher respectively longer than in straight- and crooked course. The rabbit can have three tries at one height/length. If two rabbits have tied for the same placing the one with the fewest amount of tries wins the competition. There are only two levels in high- and long jump; non-elite and elite. To gain a promotion stick the rabbit has to jump either 60 cm = 23.62 inches high respectively 160 cm = 62.99 inches long. In the elite level the rabbits compete about certificates, when the rabbit has gained three certificates in a specific course it will be a champion. One important rule in all courses is that the jumps must be constructed so that they can be knocked down in any direction without hurting the rabbit. You are not allowed to beat or kick the rabbit or to lift the rabbit only using the leach. The rabbit must be held in a harness with a leach, necklaces are not allowed as they can hurt the rabbit’s neck. And remember, only the rabbit is to jump, the human walks beside the jumps and not over them. In the tracks there is as mentioned four different levels of difficulty. Higher levels includes more difficult obstacles in the tracks. All equipage starts out in the lowest level of difficulty, and for each placing they get what we call an "upgrade point". When the rabbit has three upgrading points in the same level of difficulty it has qualified for the next following level. The number of placings in each given class is based on the number of starting rabbits. For every five starting rabbits one place is given. For example if there is 10 starting rabbits two places are given, if there are 26 starting rabbits six places are given. However the rabbit must finish the track with less than two faults per round to get an upgrading point. The most common is that one basic round and a final is arranged, which means that you can have up to at total of 4 faults and still get an upgrading point. If the rabbit completes two rounds without any faults it will receive a upgrading point no matter of the placing number. The lowest level of difficulty is called "easy" and this is the class were all rabbits begin. The maximum height is 30 cm (11,81 inches) and the track has at least 8 obstacles. After collecting three upgrading points the rabbit qualifies for the next level which is "harder than easy". Here the maximum height of the obstacles is 38 cm (14,96 inches) and the track should contain 10 of them. Like before, the rabbit has to collect three upgrading points until it's qualified for the next class which is called 'difficult'. This level has a maximum height of 45 cm (17,72 inches) and there should still be at least 10 obstacles. You must collect five upgrading points in the difficult level before you are qualified for the most difficult class, which is called 'Elite'. The elite has a maximum height of 50 cm (19.96 inches) and the track has 12 obstacles. The length of the obstacles are adjusted to fit the class, but there is a maximum length in the easy class that is 45 cm (17.72 inches) and for the other 80 cm (31,15 inches). There are also regulations for the shortest length between the obstacles. That is 250 cm (98.43 inches) in all the classes, but in the higher levels even a further distance is preferred to give the rabbits as many good possibilities as possible. In 'difficult' and 'elite' there must be a water obstacle. This is special in the way that it counts as one fault if the surface of the water is touched. The width of the obstacles, which is the length on the bars, should not be less than 60 cm (23.62 inches). In addition to the obstacles, there must be a low start and finish obstacle. These obstacles are not included in the track together with the other obstacles, they are only used for the purpose to know when to start and stop the time. In all the classes you need to finish within a maximum time limit, the most common is two minutes. The leader will be noticed when there are 30 and 10 seconds left. There are some different judgings, A-F. The most common is judging C which means that all ekuipages makes one round and that a pre-decided number of them will make it to a final round. Judging D is also. That means that all the ekuipages that completes the first round are allowed to start in the second round. This was a short description of the most important rules in the two tracks, so now let us move forward to the long and high jump. In these two events the rabbit jumps over a single specially made obstacle. In the high jump it is all about jumping as high as possible. The obstacle increases in height after every round. The rabbits have three attempts on each height. If the rabbit fails all three attempts the ekuipage is eliminated. The rabbits that performed the jump correctly continue to the next round, in which the height of the obstacle is increased. You cannot clear the same height more than once. If all the rabbits that is still in the competition fails at the same height, the winner is the rabbit that has used the least attempts to clear the previous height. If those results are also the same you have to look at the height before that and so on until you can separate them to get a winner. If not there have to be a "re competition" between those ekuipages that ended at the same result. Long jump has the same system of declaring a winner, but here the rabbit must jump as far as possible. In high and long jump we have a different upgrading system than in competition in tracks. There are only two classes, 'not elite' and 'elite'. The rabbits starts in not elite. To receive an upgrading point in these events a limit of 60 cm (23.62 inches) in high jump and 160 cm (5,2 feet) in long jump must be cleared. To advance to elite in either of the events, the ekuipage have to collect three upgrading points respectively. When you have reached the elite level in all events, there are no longer any competitions for upgrading points. Instead, the winner of the class receives a certificate, if the class has more than 10 starting rabbits. To receive a certificate in high jump the rabbit must also clear a height of at least 70 cm (27,56 inches) and in long jump 180 cm (5,9 feet). If a rabbit receives three certificates in the same event taken in at least two different clubs, the owner can, regardless of the number of certificates received in the other events, ad the title champion to its name. If the rabbit becomes a champion in two events you ad Great Champion, in three events Super Champion and in all four events Grand Champion. The most important factor in rabbit jumping is the safety of the rabbits. The obstacles are not allowed to be built in a way that the rabbits under any circumstances can hurt themselves. Nails cannot be used to put the bars on. You are not allowed to beat or kick the rabbit, and you can of course never lift it only by its leach. No stressing sounds or acts is allowed and if the rabbit needs to be guided, this should be done by gently using the hands, never the feet or just the leash. The hand holding the leash must be behind the rabbit at all times. The leader of the rabbit cannot go over the obstacles; he or she must pass next to them. To be allowed to participate in a competition the person must have turned 7 years old and the rabbit must be at least 4 months old. In high- and long jump the rabbit must be 12 months old. All breeds and crossbreeds are allowed to participate, the only important thing is that the rabbit is healthy! All breeds are allowed to compete; however, there may be problems with smaller and larger breeds. (Rabbit size is usually determined by weight: small rabbits are considered under 2 kilo/4.4 lbs and giant over 5 kilos / 11 lbs) Small rabbits, such as the Polish and Netherland dwarf sometimes have problems jumping over long obstacles due to their size. However, there are examples of small rabbits that still made it to the highest Scandinavian classes. Smaller rabbits can overcome weaknesses through style and will. Larger rabbits such as the Flemish Giant and French Lop will put a lot of weight on their front legs in the landing while jumping high over higher obstacles, which may cause injury. Generally, long-haired Angora type breeds, if not clipped, are excluded from competing because of the difficulties their coats cause with agility and vision. Neither English Lop should be entered as they risk injury to their ears. The ideal jumping rabbit has long legs and a long back, which will help it see over longer obstacles and correctly judge the height or length in order to get over. In the case of with slender bone, such as the Belgian Hare, the legs should be strong and muscular so high jumps will not hurt them. In Scandinavia, where rabbit show jumping has a strong base, most are crossbreeds, bred with good jumpers as parents, similar to the method of breeding show dogs. How to teach your rabbit to jump HOW TO TEACH THE RABBIT TO HOP It is best to start with a young. It is good to buy a young at 8 weeks at a breeder, who is a member of a breeding organization. The very first thing you have to teach your rabbit is to walk in a harness and leash. It might be a little cat´s harness or a special harness for rabbits with an eye behind in the back piece. It must not just be a necklace, because then the rabbit might be choked. It might take time to get it used to the harness, but don´t be in too great a hurry. It is very important, that nothing happens, that might frighten the rabbit, when it is in harness. Let it have a good experience, when it is in the harness. Then it will gradually look forward to come out into the harness for a walk. If you have more rabbits, it is best to have one harness for each rabbit. Some rabbits will bite in the harness, if it smells of an other rabbit. When the rabbit has got used to the harness, you can start teaching it, that you are the one, who decides, where you are going. When your rabbit is good at walking in the harness, you can start letting it hop over small jumps. As long time as the young is little, you must not let it jump too much and not too high. Just about 5 minutes at 0 - 5 cm. (0-2 inch.) (0 cm is when the bar is just lying at the grass). It will be good with some milk cartons or some small wood blocks with 100 cm. (40 inch.) between the cartons or blocks. After some weeks you can put one more carton upon the first. When you add the high, you have to add the length. If you already have a rabbit jump, you start with one bar or two bars. If the rabbit don´t want to jump, you can try to lift it once or twice, maybe it will jump by itself the next time. Teach your rabbit from the beginning just to hop the one way. Then it is easier to teach it just to go forward on a course. That´s what it´s about in an event. If your rabbit gets tired, you must let it get a rest and then try later the same day or the next day. To calm or encourage your rabbit it is important, that you talk with your rabbit the whole time both at training and at events. Don´t tell it off, if it doesn't go like you want. You don´t achieve anything by that. At straight course, there has to be the same distance between the jumps. In this way the rabbit gets a fluent run through and has a better chance to make the jumps. When the rabbit is 4 month, it can start training at an easy course (25 cm (9.8 inch.) high) and it can start in an event. Here in Denmark the handler has to be a member of the Breeding Organization of Denmark. Maybe you can try to train in an organization before being a member. All breed and mixed rabbits can learn to hop, but do not hop with very big and heavy rabbits. Don't over train your rabbit. By training once or twice a week it will quickly get used to hop and become a clever hopping rabbit. If you have got a rabbit, who in spite of your best attempts, will not hop, you must let it be a pet rabbit. If you force it, it might be aggressive and maybe you will get sour. It is hard to say, if it is best to hop with a male or a female. We have had best luck with the females. Our males are often more interested in sniffing and peeing and mating our legs. The females might be a little lazy, when they are in heat, but else they are very willing to hop. If it is very hot and very cold it is better not to hop. Rabbit hopping is fun for children and grown ups, and it is a different good and exciting way to have rabbits and to be a rabbit. If you have a little fenced area in your garden, your rabbit can have fun of running there too. It also will give it more exercise. Before you start teaching your rabbit to jump you must teach it how to walk in a harness. When the rabbit feels safe and brave walking in the harness you can start with low jumps (about 5 -10 cm = 2-4 inches). Put the rabbit in front of the first jump and give it some time to think. You might have to help it the first time by lifting the rabbit or by push loosely at its backside. Praise and let the rabbit walk to the next jump. When the rabbit has learned to jump – walk – jump you can add some more jumps and after a while you can increase the difficulty. Think about not to hurry and not practice too much. Otherwise the rabbit might loose interest. You can build jumps out of things you have at home as long as the rabbit can’t get hurt when jumping it. Remember that the jumps must be constructed so that they can be knocked down in any direction without hurting the rabbit. Most rabbits can be taught to jump but not all of them like it. You should never force a rabbit to jump. World records The Guinness Book of World Records makes note of the world record for the highest rabbit jump which is 99.5 cm (39.2 in), which was achieved by Mimrelunds Tösen (The Lassie of Quivering Grove) who was owned by Tine Hygom (Denmark) in Herning, Denmark on 28 June 1997. However, June 13, 2013 this record was beaten by Snöflingans (Super Champion) Majesty of Night "Aysel", owned by Tarkan Sönmez (Sweden) at 100 cm (39.4 in). A video of this can be found on YouTube. The record for longest jump is 3m (118.1 in), held by Yaboo (owner: Maria B Jensen, Denmark)and was set on June 10, 1999. The world record in high jump is held by a Swedish rabbit called Aysel. She has jumped 100 cm (39.37 inches). Her owner is Tarkan Sönmez. The world record in long jump is held by a Danish rabbit, he is called Yaboo and the longest jump was measured to 3 m (9.84 feet). In conclusion At events, there is always great attendance from the spectators. People of all ages have a good time by looking at rabbit hopping. Even radio, TV, newspapers and magazines find, that rabbit hopping is a good subject and now and then they bring photos or on-the-spot report. Of course now and then people, who think it is cruelty to animals, are passing by, but they have hardly ever understood, that the rabbits are hopping of joy. The critics do not think about, that all what we do, are be built on the natural movements of the rabbits. Rabbit jumping is a fun sport for both owner and rabbit. In Scandinavia it is growing and getting more popular. We wish that with this podcast we will inspire rabbit owners all over the world to try rabbit jumping safely! The more you do with your rabbit, the more fun you have with it. If you make rabbit hopping there will by itself come a very close tie between the handler and the rabbit. About 3,000 are expected to take part in the rabbit version of Hickstead. The Swedish rabbit jumping team is among 3,000 animals taking part at the Great Yorkshire Showground, in Harrogate. You are very welcome to contact the committee for The Swedish Federation of Rabbit Jumping if you have any questions. styrelsen@skhrf.com http://skhrf.com/englishsit/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabbit_show_jumping https://sites.google.com/site/americanhoppingassociation/ http://www.canadianrabbithoppingclub.com/ http://www.kaninhop.dk/uk/ http://rabbithoppingnz.wixsite.com/rabbithoppingnz http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/15/bunny-hop-competition-prague_n_5155397.html http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/weird-news/watch-adorable-bouncing-bunnies-take-5031497 www.smallanimalshow.co.uk.
