f**k that, it's asking for elbow and wrist injuries in my opinion. I physically couldn't do a snatch, not even with a revolving bar, I'm just not flexible enough. If I'm like that at 125kg I can't imagine what it's like for the 140-160kg guys.

I also agree with Wayne on behind the neck jerk behind a crap event aswell. I couldn't even grip a bar in that position never mind press/jerk it.

Come guys if a 46k 14 year old girl can do it, surely these big burly strongmen can manage a power snatch on an axle?? Wink

That's a great event and was great to watch in WSM.

nice thought to celebrate the olympics with a dedicated event. Max axle would have been good for that though.

any way, i love watching snatches, so why not Grin

but its just going to be a bit s**t when people see 200kg snatch in olympics, and the most they will see at UKs version is maybe 120-130 if that...

i thought this also. it will make strongmen look weak as the general public will not understand the difficulty of doing it wih an axle and having no previous experience. then to see a young girl snatching 100kg+ in the olympics will make it look even worse.
