Not the most thorough of competitions or anything but fairly interesting.

You forget about the split-snatch and split-clean.

Both of which look terrifying. Grin

No unlocking of the knees, they stopped in 1972 because people were just push pressing it.

I thought they stopped it as it was considered too dangerous for the back, as well as being too hard to judge?

I've never heard anything about the back. I thought it was stopped due to problems judging the lift.
