The frame squat will be set up down at results a week on saturday (2 march) for anyone if anyone is going to be in the area and wants a shot. All the other kit will be there too for anyone who wants a shot.

Good to hear there will be a decent crowd with the rugby lads.

A quick not on events, we may have to swap the stones out for something else as the guy who has our stone moulds has headed off to Norway for a month with work so we likely wont manage to get them made up in time.

I will put a further update on with the replacement event as soon as but looks like it could be tyre flip.

Apologoes for the change late in the day but will try to keep you updated.

I massively dislike tyre flip unless it is a light tyre as part of a medley and done for speed. Heavy tyres and max reps I am not fond of at all. I hope it isn't that. I am sure you can be more creative than that. I also think it is rubbish as a spectator event.

Ha ha, I suppose I am partly not enthusiastic because this is the first season in 3 that I have nad any bicep tendon flare ups yet, and I am sure having to train tyre flip will cause it

What about some kind of odd object loading instead of stones. Or maybe sandbag keg and a couple of other things.

The event change is still by no means confirmed, it is now looking like we will manage to get a lend of the stones from fort william thay jeremy has kindly offered to bring down.

However I don't get why there is so much hatred for tyre flip, if done properly and the tyre has decent tread it shouldn't lead to injuries and I think it's quite good from a spectator point of view as it os something that non strongmen can relate to and is fairly fast paced.

The problem woth our own stones is that they jump from 112 to 150 with nothing in between and the 150 is a terrible stone that I don't think would last the whole comp as it is cracked.

its just because davy hates tyre flip and doesnt want to train it because he's s**t at it Wink

another cracked stone - the granite city has strong stones Wink
