vegetarian with a big deadlift - who would have thought... Member 340, 13300 posts SQ 315, BP 190, DL 350855.0 kgs @ 115kgs UnEq | Great comp today, many thanks to Denny and her team as it ran really sweetly. From reserve to third place I am obviously very happy BUT I would have been happy regardless of placing as it was great to travel with and compete a top bunch of lads and have an enjoyable day out at a top event. | ||

left the country satisfied Member 10, 19241 posts SQ 240, BP 150, DL 270660.0 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq | Ashley got tons of respect for stepping up and giving it his all - never say die attitude and nailed some good events there. It was brutal from start to finish when the weights were so near his maxes in many of the events. Craig the scotlands pride looked solid even if the placing didnt show it immediately. Lots of raw brute strength there which will no doubt come out after some more event training. Tony didnt do as wankily as he claims - field was small so it was difficult to break to higher placings if couple events do not go to plan. Stones were solid, and you need to kick yourself for not nailing the last stone. Would be suprised if that last stone would have launched you few places up. JC had a good day and placed on shared points with milsy which shows how close the game was. Points lost in two weak events, grip frame hold and stones to f**king high platforms - all the rest were solid work, one of the three to get a rep with the log. Milsy "f**k the dark horse" got referees "one to watch" award, joint points with JC but countback would have given him the fourth place. Great medley, great grip, great stones - so good that even low placings in log and dead (last) couldnt stop him nailing fourth. Ben "what the f**k happened" France - what can you say, event wins on grip hold, and medley came out of the blue, clearly a platform lifter who gets a boost under pressure. Even no points on the log had him on shared first place with Paul Cater going to stones. I have a feeling this guy will be training stone runs a lot in near future... Mark was solid throughout, had the grip event gone better the title would have been in the bag. Event win on deadlift, and not sure how the stones went but only mark and paul got all 5 stones. Second on the log, and medley went ok too. Something tells me Mark and Paul will be going tit for tat in future comps, will be awesome to watch Paul was very strong and win was deserved. The log presses took the piss and stones looked very strong too. I have not seen paul compete before but it does sound like his farmers have come on a lot with focused training. Overall comp venue couldnt have been better. This is what the sport needs - the sport is taken to people, rather than just serving the strongmen enthusiasts and their family members. I hope denny gets the contract next year too and is not deterred to put up 105 comp again despite all the difficulties in the run up to this. I think all the athletes gave their 100% today and gave a great show, couldnt have been able to ask more. Enough for Jonis largely irrelevant ramblings for now. | ||

technical retard Member 172, 36827 posts SQ 310, BP 205, DL 335850.0 kgs @ 108kgs UnEq | Firstly would like to say a big thanks to Denny, an absolutely fantastic venue and exposure. The Salt Ayre comps are fantastic, but this was another step up - hope she has the patience to put a 105 comp on again next year and the heavyweight comp was awesome too, some of the preformances were pure class. Westarby and Jack in particular.......fan-f**king-tastic Was a great fun day, but I will not be 'dialling in' for a u105 comp again if I weigh 108+ again, it was horrendous. 110KG Friday night, 106KG at 6am Saturday and 108.9KG post comp My day went as follows:- Farmers & Sandbag Load Medley - 22secs and 4th place. Fannied about with the sandbag again, which cost me 3rd place as Cater beat me by a 10th of a second 117KG Log - 1 rep - 3rd place. Cleggy went first and got 5, everyone else no repped. Cater was the only guy after me. I knew I couldnt beat Clegg or Cater so just did one and left it. Was at least 10 reps there though 275KG Deadlift - 6 reps - 5th place. Was fairly happy with this. Everyone who beat me are better pullers Frame Hold - 36secs - 7th place...wank. Dont know whats happened to my grip but its gone s**t. Dropped the farmers too!!! Stones - 3 stones in 31.xx secs. Picked the 4th stone up (140) but was f**ked. Semi attempted to load but didnt have it in me Joint 4th overall with Millsy. He said he takes it on countback Great to compete with all the Northern boys again, always a good crack. Ashley & Paul too were good blokes so was a good crack all round Hopefully u105 can get more exposure like this. | ||
