Member 1093, 5446 posts SQ 160, BP 105, DL 225490.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | Myself and the Lady Fandango are going to watch and get fantastically pissed afterwards. In fact we're there for a week, making a summer holiday out of it, so we'll probably need new livers by the time we get back. It would be nice to see the English Sugdenites win. Is anyone going to compete? | ||

Member 926, 100 posts | Hi Guys Im very sorry there hasnt been more info about the under 105kg im just very busy at the moment sorting out the event. The list of events where provisional and we needed to see how many athletes we had to confirm the events. The events and weights are as follows Log Lift 100kg for reps Farmers walk (100kg each) and 240kg super yoke medley 30 meters each axle deadlift 240 kg for reps wraps allowed 110kg husafeld stone for max distance loading and drag medley, load 2 kegs and 2 sand bags into a sled and drag it 20 meters These are the events we are limited as this event takes place before SCL so the scl equipment has to be set up so we where limited as to what events could be done. This isnt as good a standard as the UK and we are trying to get under 105kg off the ground here. The comp starts at 10:30am to 12:30pm with SCL starting at 2pm. Again my apologies for not getting back sooner if anybody has any questions contact me at gkirwan@o2.ie i dont get much time to check different sites so email is best. | ||

Member 926, 100 posts | This is what is going on if anybody is interested  Sports Expo Ireland Sunday June 6th @ Limerick Race Course 10am-7pm Taking place for the first time Sports Expo Ireland has been organised by Danesfort Event Management Ltd who have built a national sports expo around an international event. After securing the international competition Strongman Champions League we set out a plan to make this event a national event which will take place in Limerick for the next 5 years. Our aim is to run an expo unlike any other in the country where people will be amazed and enthused by the expo and it will encourage them to take up a sport, try new activities and think about the fun that they can have. Strongman Champions League Ireland is our main event and it will feature twelve athletes nine of whom competed at the 2009 Worlds Strongest Man competition including the reigning Worlds Strongest Man Zydrunas Savickas from Lithuania. Strongman Champions League Ireland will be televised on 16 television channels around the world and will attract a national media interest as it is the first major strongman competition in Ireland. Athletes will compete in events such as the celtic cross walk, car dead lift, truck pull, Viking press, loading medley and a super yoke and farmers walk medley which will result in a very intense and enjoyable show. We have attracted some of the biggest names in strongman Zydrunas Savickas, Ervin Katona, Kevin Nee, Travis Ortmayer and Johanes Arsjo all of whom are amongst the top strongmen in the world. Athletes 1. Zydrunas Savickas – Lithuania, reigning Worlds Strongest Man. 2. Terry Holland – England, currently winning the Strongman Champions League series. 3. Ervin Katona – Serbia 4.

Whilst under 105kg athletes would sometimes be considered small in strongman most people will be pleasantly surprised by the fierce competition for the national title. Under 105kg athletes will give a demonstration in strength, athleticism and character in what will surely be a tightly fought contest. Events for this competition include the farmers walk, atlas stone for reps, dead lift, log press and husafeld stone. The line up includes Martin Gallen who finished 2nd and Angelo Ienneta who finished 4th in the 2010 Republic of Irelands Strongest Man competition Classes we hope that all the demonstrations will motivate the public into trying one of the many classes open to the public.
