The spelling in the description is dire. Anyone want to see how few attempts they'd need to "power flip" that tyre the distance? I can probably do it in 4-5, would bet some of the bigger guys here can do it in 2 flips.

i also see that during the car deadlift hold the competitior must lower the log under control, and no dropping of the log is allowed. But lifting 'hooks' are.

Normally it's not applicable but do you think picking up the tyre and running it along the course would be allowed!

Ed, you're the most respectful and grown up person on this site Happy

Although the thread made me laugh (because of the way Vanilla presented it), I agree with you.

I think a log should be a log and not a twig?

I'm sure it will be an enjoyable week-end for participants and I'm sure the strongest man who shows up will still win... just like the best basketball player would still win if the game were played with 8 ft hoops.

I dont think anyone is disputing the 1st of your points are they?

More disilusioned with it being labelled "XXX Strongest Man" when it is'nt a "strong"man contest

Hey, I was trying to stay positive and s**t! Grin

If the strongest entrant wins, isn't he the "strongest man" on the day?

I do think they should have been more creative instead of offering watered down strongman events and pretending that people will come away with a good idea of "what it takes to be a Strongman Athlete".
