The points were mounting up fast and furiously during the game of 4-Way Play at the UKC premier event this past June. Teams were clearing quads and landing in the sweet spot as time expired. Something in the air said this day was going to be a special one. It was then that Chip and his dog Phate stepped into the sweet spot to start their round of 4-Way Play. Chip had already put up a good round with another one of his dogs and judges watched with anticipation. Within 15 seconds, Chip and Phate had cleared their first quad. Shortly after the 30 second mark the 2nd quad was cleared. Time was ticking down; you could cut the suspense in the air with a Bowie knife. With five seconds to spare Chip and Phate cleared the first ever triple quad in competition, and scored an extra zone for good measure. Just to prove that the accomplishment was no fluke, Chip and Phate repeated the feat the following day. Congrats to the first ever team to clear 3 quads and earn the Triple Quad Achievement. Who will be next and who will claim the $100 dollar bounty UpDog has put up for the first team to clear 4 quads and earn the TetraQuad achievement. The next opportunity to play 4-Way Play is July 11th in New Hampshire or Alberta, Canada. Congratulations to Chip and Phate and good luck to all the teams next weekend.
