You will start 25’ behind the start line. You should check the nozzle for the desired pattern prior to the start of the event.  The keg can be placed in any position as long as it is behind the start/finish line.  When the start signal is given by the judge, you will proceed toward the nozzle and hose.  You will push the keg with a water stream from the start/finish line. You can adjust the nozzle pattern at anytime while pushing the keg.  At no time during the event shall the keg be touched with anything but water, a five second penalty shall be assessed for each infraction of this rule. The keg can cross or touch the hose. You are required to pass through the barrels at the beginning of the event.  Only the keg is required to pass through the gate barrels to complete the event.  Time is taken when the keg passes through the two barrels at the finish line.  If the keg crosses over the start line without passing between the two gate barrels, the event will be stopped and no time awarded.
