Not a bad spread of events given the strengths of each of the competitors. Probably between Shaw and Thor with Big Z not able to compete - it’ll be interesting to see what Eddie pulls after 2 weeks.
On a side note, I think the Arnold is going to have a 100k purse next year. How long can this event offer 25k (or whatever it is) and still maintain its status - it wont be long before the “international” Arnolds will be offering more than this.
Thought it is his back that still isn’t up to par.
Anyway a pitty that he can’t compete.
I am excited for the circus barbell, I think it is a coo levent. In general I am excited what Eddie and the guys who competed at Europe’s can do. The events itself are actually very good for Hall, minus the throws maybe. Anyway I am rooting for Shahlei like always and I think Shaw has the best chance of winning.
Am I the only one more fired up about the absence of keg toss rather than Zydrunas? I’ll miss Z dearly this year but for fucks sake thank GOD that shitty event is gone!!!
I like the Keg toss. I particularly like thr one where Shaw blitzed through it then said no one would beat his time only to have Hafthor blow his time out the water… the look on his face…
Yeah way under paid, yet if i hit a little ball for 18 holes and place 10th i got home 150000. If i were to win lotto i would make it 100000 first place with two weight class 110kg, and super heavy. I wait to watch on you tube, as mainstream sports needs 40 bowl games . When people see the physiques of under 110kg guys, who do strongman they will be suprised, i think if i could only do 10 exercises, total for strength and development at least 6 would be strongman events
