Member 1135, 86 posts SQ 137, BP 100, DL 160397.0 kgs @ 60kgs UnEq | Nice one Hicks! Would love to see him get 1st or 2nd! Deadlift used to be a weakness!!!! | ||

I'm talking to myself here Member 4644, 216 posts SQ 0, BP 70, DL 160230.0 kgs @ 75kgs UnEq | SUPER YOKE Not all times announced, argh. Going in pairs. McElroy 12.25 seconds Steele 11.15 Tom not announced, way slower than Steele Luke 11.58 Brunning a lot slower than Luke Terry 10.24 sprint Page very slow by comparison SMITH 12.88 inc 2 second penalty for sliding the yoke Nowicki slower, put yoke down once near end Bishop crazy acceleration, "in 2nd place in event so far" (time not announced) Felix slower HICKS 8.61 holy christ Hall 10.02 I am sitting immediately behind the athletes and it looked like Paul Smith had balance issues - the front of the yoke was sitting very low. Hall complaining of low back strain after deadlift. Hixxy is king! Event finished at 19:10. | ||

Hope he pulls himself together, off to a great start. Looked like sheer exhaustion rather than anything more worrying. Shame about the penalty on his yoke. | ||

 Mr.Potato deadlift Member 2675, 4637 posts SQ 300, BP 200, DL 300800.0 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | So Hall 1 point above Hicks after 3 events? | ||

His Instagram "part time strongman". Statically incredible and living a full time job (like many others) but if you ask about Hix outside of absolute hard-core fans, people will scratch their heads. Such is the nature of self promotion. | ||

Just saw the yoke vid, Ed a little lucky not to be penalised for sliding. And obvious complaints of a back issue as he crossed the line. | ||

Mr.Potato deadlift Member 2675, 4637 posts SQ 300, BP 200, DL 300800.0 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Hicks looks like he’s raised his game massively. Great to see him doing so well and pushing one of the very best | ||
