That's quite a skill! Wink
On a serious note, some logs can just be way tougher than others. Diameter, weight of the actual log (as opposed to the overall lift), (possibly) hand spacing etc.


Yer it was as thick as an IFSA log but only half as long, think my problem was tht i'd been splilt jerkin in training but on the day the surface was slightly sloped and it was raining so i kept thinking im gonna get injured here. In reality i could have done a good 3-5 strict presses with it but walked away frustrated with 40 seconds left, ridiculous i know.

Comp was well run and lots of helpers on hand and loaders did very good job. Gladly the rain cleared halfway through the comp in time for farmers, tyre and truck pull.

Think the 105's who qualified in order were -

Scott Poulter
Either Jordan Lyons or Tim Furner
Sean Clarke
Mark topham??
Tom Linklater
Mike Bromby

I'm dissapointed to have not made top 3 but suppose i still did enough considering what happened on the first event.

Really good enjoyable day yesterday. Thankfully the weather wasn't too bad considering the last few days. It was great to finally meet some of the lads from here I've been talking to, and meet some new faces too.
Well pleased with my performance, although a little disappointed to lose out on countback but thats how it goes.
Well done to everyone who competed and a big thanks to Jack and all the loaders and helpers from Spartan.

loved the comp, really well run speedy, with some great lads and herculean efforts. Well pleased for Wayne on the win and Mike on the qualifying. Chuffed that i did better than i expected. A little pissed i missed out on qualifying by half point got no excuses just need to train harder. Definately got something to aim for next time round now!

Really pleased for Shaun , winning today in what was his third comp speaks volumes about his potential. I've never trained with anyone who tries harder so today was fully deserved.


was a very good all round for shaun, look forward to seeing want he does next year?

That's the plan. Was a good experience anyway.
