I think the keg toss is an impressive beer to watch.. Especially from the casual fan's point of view..

I agree. Is this WSM or Crossfit?

Keg toss isn't bad to watch, but if a guys technique is off slightly on a throw it can cost him the win. I suppose you could say that about anything that isn't a pure power event, but still, this should be about who is strongest.

I agree that the overhead is a little light given where all these guys are at now in terms of power. Check out Fortissimus 2008/9 - now that comp had good overheads.

as a kid I used to love some of throws they used to do. I remember a huge wall they threw blocks over with planks at the top and they would add another plank each round to increase the height. that looked so much cooler than the current set up.

I agree the OH Medley seems light. I'd rather they have a few light things followed by some V heavy things as well to really push them. I liked the medley from last year tbh. Showed a good range.

This is just going to be a sprint basically.

I really liked Keg toss the first time i watched it on Tv and the general fans(my family) like it a lot but they do like to mention how 2 kegs can be in the air at once at least 3 times every time it's shown... I would rather see weight for height like in Hungray Giants live last year. That was good. Or a few even heavier kegs at the end.

Got to love that 110kg dumbell, in a medley, is considered light and Crossfit like!

I'm thinking MVM 95 or 96 but I may be mistaken. They may have used it more than once?
