Agree! fantastic final and great heats too. Hixxy was awesome considering he was competing at 105 not long ago. Eds a static beast and will only get better. Jack and Chris will only get better too.

Cool good to know. Thanks
Any other interesting behind the scenes bit the doctor said


He showed me the printouts of everyone from the minute they had it on to the recovery too. It was very cool and I hope they can expand on it even more in the future maybe in a behind the scenes show like they did before

I'm guessing the initial frustration and desire to come back next year to put things right feeling has worn off and you are back to feeling like you did before WSM, not sure if competing next year is a good idea or not?


Hopefully some time off will get the hunger back.

interesting hearing your thoughts terry , what's your feelings about Brian was he fully fit ?


No I wouldn't say so. He was suffering with his arm/hand. The day before the final he couldn't feel 2 of his fingers at all and not much in his thumb. He flew his physio out to try get it fixed.

You're dead right though, half the battle is staying healthyish. You did great as the others did too

Terry, the act of having an ECG done (or anything done for that matter) will raise your heart rate.

Take your pulse manually first thing in the morning before getting out of bed. It will be lower.

I enjoyed this WSM as much as I do the others but thought some of the events were a bit sterile? The setting seemed boring and the crowd pathetic.

Would far prefer some more 'outrageous' events and a larger crowd. The last two in the USA weren't as good as others have been IMO.

The most recent one in Sun City was the most impressive, with the power stairs in that massive old amphitheatre or what ever it was.

Anybody else feel they should have given jenkins the 220 log, imo it was on par with big z although neither were rock solid.
