    I'm not even sure what backling is? but whatever it is, I can see why anyone might like a good backle with Lory.

Although I can't back-lead, sometimes, in a freestyle, if the leader gets lost, and the lead basically hesitates and dies, I will guess at the intended move, and go into autopilot, until I feel the connection come back. Don't really know what else to call this. It isn't back-leading, because I am just leading myself in a vacuum, not ignoring or resisting a lead. It isn't hijacking, because he dropped the controls, (I just picked 'em up)
    I laughingly call that a strong follow. It works for me in an intermediate class when I forget where I'm supposed to be.
