will beat Buzz in the next comp Member 358, 713 posts SQ 200, BP 160, DL 220580.0 kgs @ 105kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 02.05.2010 @ 16:25 PM by Nick79 Unit20 are proud to present the Scottish Under 90's Strongest Man 2010 on the 19th June. This will be the first year of 90's in Scotland, and will hopefully be a popular competition, and will also bring out some mini beasts who can go down south and mix it up with the other Brits, as this will be a qualifier for Britain's under 90kg Mightiest Man 2010 in Partnership Elite Strongman Promotions, which is to be held at Olympic Sports Gym in Ashton, Manchester, later in the year.I know there has been talk up here of lighter categories 'diluting' the sport, but I hope that people make their own decisions as to what class to compete in, and the main aim of the U90's is to create a platform and an even playing field for the naturally lighter guys in the sport, and also attract new faces. As it's a national comp, we've tried to set the weights/events accordingly. Any feedback is welcome though. Event 1 - Strength Shop sponsored MAX Log Press Max weight log, last man standing, fail the weight and you're out. Start weight will probably be 80kg and going up in 5s. Using the new wooden log Event 2 - Ultimate Grip sponsored Farmers Walk 110kg farmers for 40m, turn at 20m. 75 second time limit. Drops are fine. Event 3 - Unit Supplements sponsored Tyre flip and Loading medley 280 tyre flipped 4 times, followed by 100kg and 117kg stone and 120 keg to 51" platform. 90 second time limit. Event 4 - John Disher Carpets sponsored Arm over arm - 300kg sled for 15m. Event 5 - Atlas Stones sponsored Axle Deadlift - 200kg axle deadlift for reps, full range. 75 seconds. No straps. Suits most likely ok as it's a national comp, but to be confirmed. Hopefully the log, farmers, arm over arm, and axle deads will run head to head. Order of events is yet to be decided but the axle deadlift will be the last event. All events are subject to change. Will be £15 entry, with t-shirts, trophies for top 3, medals for the rest, and goodies for all. Taking names now just to get an idea of interest/numbers. Any questions just give me or buzz/brian a shout. Stuart Y Jeremy SteveC Youngy Iain (my DL max is only 150 ![]() Keiran Friday Lee Grip Freak Kev Cammy CJ | ||

![]() a large fingered spastic that demolishes plant Member 89, 31706 posts SQ 260, BP 220, DL 290770.0 kgs @ 142kgs UnEq | thats a tasty comp. i find it hard to believe that the scottish open qualifier as a incline log press at 110 and a under 90 class is 100kgs the open weight looks wrong to me. hope this takes off and more guys get into the sport | ||
