She wants to be the first female to lift them and I would like to either try walking with them or hold for time. Not sure what the records are for either these days.We would also like to have a crack at some of the stones too (inzer stone etc) | ||

The whole thing that makes them hard is gripping the rings. Obviously yes the weight is heavy and no offence to Jan Todd but there's probably a lot of strongwoman could lift them with straps, even some lightweight competitors, especially with a lot of them being short. | ||

Oh I thought you ment just lift it. You didn't mention unassisted. Well fair play then if Rebecca becomes the first to lift unassisted. Would be some achievement | ||

Would be some achievement I don't class using straps as lifting them personally. It's a grip lift. To me that's the same as doing a double overhand axle deadlift with straps. That's not a doh axle pull, its just a deadlift. | ||

![]() Member 3740, 1628 posts | Was about 10 years ago that I last lifted them. New stipulations for lifting these days to limit damage/wear to the stones: 4 weeks advance notice Proof of lifting a minimum of 300kg without straps No more "Assisted Lift" attempts (women are allowed straps tho) Best to have a look on the Dinnie Stones website first. | ||

The organisers allowed it so she did lift it. I understand what you are saying but it was classed as a successful lift. Good luck to your other half to become first unassisted. | ||
