 Is partial to the odd bender. Member 6, 10239 posts SQ 280, BP 192.5, DL 317.5790.0 kgs @ 102kgs Eq | Although I agree car pulls and the like are cool, I think the events already suggested would suffice. Hopefully there will be a good number of competitors so keeping it simple and capping the number of events at 5 would keep the day moving nicely. Its far from the Tony show though so if the masses want a car pull thing and logistics allow for it then why not. | ||

 always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 210, BP 167.5, DL 260637.5 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | Joni if you check I said 250, 300, 350 for the yoke, JC just misquoted me  But yeah, could even make that 240, 300, 360.Would have to think about the rules/points though. For example, if someone takes 2 steps with a 350kg yoke, is that more deserving of points than someone who sprints through the 25m with a 300kg yoke, but they didn't chose the heavier one so therefore wouldn't get as many points. We don't want people to just go for the heavy weight on yoke and farmers for the points and risk injury. So maybe 10m minimum is required to beat the people who chose the lighter weight or something like that? Have we got a date yet? What about last weekend in Feb, or first weekend in March? Any later and it's going to be comp season. | ||

 left the country satisfied Member 10, 19241 posts SQ 240, BP 150, DL 270660.0 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq | how about some system like: 240 yoke - time and distance as is. 300 yoke - time halved and distance doubled 360 yoke - time divided by 3, and distance tripled. This means that some 300 yoke dudes would beat 360 guys. | ||

Member 6, 10239 posts SQ 280, BP 192.5, DL 317.5790.0 kgs @ 102kgs Eq | On the yoke front this is my thinking, the event is about getting stuck in and competing against a load of mates. Placings, points etc don't really come into my mind. So my idea is just judge it on distance no matter what weight you pick. Everyone on Sugden knows what level they are at and I think are honest enough to chose a weight that suits their level of strength/experience. Being the c**t I am I'll be taking the largest weight there is for a ride. If I only move it 2 meters and get beaten distance wise by everyone who picks the lightest yoke I really don't give a f**k. | ||

always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 210, BP 167.5, DL 260637.5 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | Sat 28th Feb sounds good to me. Joni - my head hurts even trying to think about that system!! Tony makes good points. I think just have the 3 levels, people pick their level and compete against the guys in their group at that level for all events, so there would be 3 overall Sugden champs? Novice, intermediate and open? | ||

Novice, intermediate and open? Sort of dilutes the day though don't you think? Adders meets are about no weigh classes and no BS complicated rules. Just lifting. I'd rather finish last in a strong field including some awesome guys than finish top of a novice group. | ||

 Loves rugby league ... Member 13, 14460 posts SQ 230, BP 180.5, DL 262.5673.0 kgs @ 128kgs UnEq Administrator | yea how about 3 weights for each event 1 rep with top weight beats mid weight, 1 rep with mid weight beats low weight use some sort of coefficient for farmers/yoke, so 1m-1m for light, 1m=1.25 on mid 1m-1.5 on top weight points are given 10 for 1st, 9 for 2nd etc etc winner is person with most points? | ||
