Do you mean the measuring banner that is laid along the edge of the pool?

[I] was having a total brain fade when i wrote that yes i was wondering if they are custom made or available somewhere , pool is here and ready to install but once she jumps i gotta know how far and progress !! Thanks

We just glued together some PVC pipe with caps on the end ( keeps it from sinking ), then marked it with duct tape and tied it to the side of the pool. Works great and it will only cost about 50 bucks at the most. We looked into getting one made and I think it was in the $ 350.00 range.

I saw yours on your web page great idea 350 is way to much for my already over priced pool how long is your pool ? it sure is a beautiful one mine is still in a box but it is just a blue thing but me and Denali cant wait to get jumping hopefully we will see all of you pros this spring/ summer Rhonna

Thanks for the compliment Rhonna. I'm in the pool building business, otherwise we would have never been able to afford it. Our pool is just over thirty feet long.
The dogs use the pool way more than our two legged kids. Sometimes I wish I had a blue thing in a box instead. Good luck with the pool installation. See you soon.

Hey Rhonna,
You might want to check PostNet in Hollister. They make banners, and are making one for my collars for a very cheap amount ($50 for a 4'x2'). Just a thought. Beau can't wait to come over!

This may sound stupid but make sure the numbers get printed in the correct backward order. I've seen banners hanging at events with the high numbers at the wrong end.

The splash dogs banners are custom ordered and made for us. If you are interested in high end banners like ours, I will send you the link to our vinyl guy.

Last year we went to auburn and prunedale i talked with all of the splash gurus and we all know stanley so you are an easy one to remember ! I have a young red poodle that loves the water loves to chase the ball but has a bit of stage fright we are putting up a 30ft pool to pratice since the only other place is a regular built in pool in which she will jump all day i am thinking practice in the real thing will help we have the room and there are other jumpers and wanna be jumpers that would love to give it a try we live close to ashley and beau we are hoping to learn so from them also , so expect to see the red poodle this summer at as many events as we can pull off !!!
