End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | Simeon said: Z and lalas don't have any events where they drop big points They really do...if arm over arm is in they will, their farmers isn't great either really. Z quite often comes about 6-7th on farmers at WSM. Lalas dropped lots in power stairs last year, but that won't be in this year...so maybe he won't, but I still think he will in farmers or something else. | ||

Gone and easily forgotten....... Member 331, 22298 posts SQ 185, BP 100, DL 230515.0 kgs @ 85kgs UnEq | Wasn't power stairs the last event and it didn't matter for Lalas unless he won it? Or am I mistaken. | ||

really really interesting Member 3474, 2816 posts SQ 170, BP 120, DL 260550.0 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 26.07.2013 @ 11:57 AM by fong Pretty sure z won or at least placed top 3 at europes in farmers, definitely not a weakness. | ||

More mass needs more fueling and when you look at the size of a human heart for what it does, it's amazing it keeps going on a normal person in my opinion never mind the big man mountains as strong as 4 or even 5 regular men! | ||

Member 4646, 1964 posts | Post Edited: 26.07.2013 @ 12:15 PM by Mikeneto Also listing more great strongmen all it does mean when Brian Shaw wins the stones it just means a lot more names between him and Z, which will also happen in the overhead but vice versa. I just think in the yoke and farmers Shaw will pull in a lot more points and deadlift I think they will get the same.Also 3rd at European's doesn't mean a great deal on the world stage...all the Americans have great grip and quick on their feet. If the farmers are heavy Z will drop them...Burke, Jenkins and Shaw will not. Loz and Hollands I would have ahead of Z on farmers all the time also. Then Thor is a strange one, his grip isn't as good as I would expect for someone so tall, but may have improved. | ||

An amazing human being Member 2047, 17156 posts SQ 262.5, BP 170, DL 300732.5 kgs @ 108kgs UnEq | I think this year is gonna be closer than ever (although have said this past couple fo years! LOL), some really really strong guys now. Z, lalas, shaw, radz, burke, tel, loz, thor, misha all in with a real shout and are constantly improving! Not sure mongo and ed are quite there yet (no offence intended and obviously would love mongo to win it), they just need another year or so mixing it with the top guys to get their game up (and past) their level! Whatever the result it gonna be a f**kin awesome comp! | ||

End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | Thing said:i wasnt sure if jenkins was doing it. is Burke competing? as he has inproved too Well Burke has qualified with winning the giants live where Eddie Hall came 2nd. Jenkins will be there purely from his strict press vid, he is in good shape and been training. Just depends where his deadlift is at...at Arnold's Europe last year he actually pulled a very fast and clean 400kg. | ||

Whatever the result it gonna be a f**kin awesome comp! A final with Z Lalas Shaw Radz Hollands Loz Jenkins Misha Thor Poundstone That is 10 basically superstar strongman names! Would be a dream final to see that as the startlist with no injuries. It is actually ridiculous that there is 10 such big names in strongman all at once. | ||

I think they will be heavier at WSM and he will drop them at least once...where I don't think the others will. The American's have got the best grip on the planet..Shaw and Burke obviously have amazing grip, I also think Jenkins has some freaky strong grip as well. | ||
