There again you've got 'paused' benches and hitches on deads. Best that everyone just packs in PL, does strongman and all get on.

I dont think most people would mind if they were to wear all their multi-ply kit, took a f**kload of gear and even did their 24-48hour weigh ins...as longs as they still actually did the lifts to the rule book...i.e. squat below // and rule books state crease of the hip below line of the knee, this cannot really be misinterpretted, its just blatantly disregarded in their quest to break "All Time" records!!!

As with reffing in all sports they can get it wrong, but I struggle to remember a squat that the refs got so wrong it was henous.

I havent been to many meets, but I've been to couple of nationals, and it did come up as an issue with those that I was there with. This was also within the same fed. Throw different orgs in the mix and no one can decide on anything. Just an outsider looking in, in fact I know nothing so I'll f**k off. lol

Can't help but wonder if in 20 years time PL will have died because of the 5 layer suits or whether everything will become raw.

WPC worlds too must be a major draw too. Off course if they just offered knee wraps then that would be another good thing. I don't see that happening too soon though. Will npo doubt need another generation or 2 of lifters to come through. Regardless they'll always have the squat!!!
