985.0 kgs @ 135kgs UnEq		i beg to differ. I know a lot of guys in the under 105's who travel miles n miles just to train in a gym where they can do strongman, then there is the milage to compete. I think thats a bit of an unfair and unreasinable comment to say the least.

I have never met or watched mr.woods, but nevertheless theres some great guys in the u105 with huge potential who will really push him for years to come.

had it been a normal JT log reps would have been banged of course.

Isn't part of being a strongman to be able to adapt to non-standard equipment? I mean, if you're strong you're strong aren't you? What you seem to be saying is that it wasn't that it was too heavy, it was the wrong kind of log!

Maybe the weight was just too heavy for the standard of competitors.

not sure if you misunderstood me or i am misunderstanding you Grin

aye, it was too heavy for that log (or guys too weak, either way)

but on a normal log 115 wouldnt have been

so when people say "but it was just 115/117.5" they mean it wouldnt have been a problem with most logs.

Thing is though, the people that got reps were better pressers than the people that didn't so I don't think it worked out too badly on that front.

It's not like some people adapted better and others didn't, the stronger pressers came out on top anyway, so I don't think its a bad thing that it was an awkward log, the standings would have been the same regardless of log IMO.

Obviously, the best pressers would still have come out on top, but the rest of the standings could have been different. If five guys didn't complete a single rep, then either the promoter misjudged the standard, or the competitors misjudged the standard. Either way, it's not good from a spectator's perpsective to see guys fail and the notion that it wasn't the weight it was the log smacks of workmen blaming their tools and all.

Agreed, to be honest I think both athletes and organisers were surprised with the log difficulty, most having done more in training.
