BJones Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Almost makes me wish I still lived around the "Bugh!!?? Congrats to all the competitors - Great work Rick and Diesel Crew. Brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedd Johnson Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 The guy smitty is mentioning is Bryan Allen, the West Virginia NASS chair. Not only was he a supportive judge, but the man also has a heck of a supporting Grip! He was the only individual besides myself to fully deadlift the inch dumbbell at the World Series of Grip table. -Jedd- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Ostlund Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Great job guys! How many weight classes were there? Who won for overall LW and HW? How many contests do you plan to do this year Rick, Smitty, and Pexter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Walker Posted April 26, 2005 Author Share Posted April 26, 2005 How many weight classes were there? Women's open LW and HWNovice LW & HW Masters LW & HW Open LW Open MW Open LHW Open HW Open SHW Who won for overall LW and HW? The guy who won my class won the overall strongest man title. Not sure of his name. Mannino won the SHW class. How many contests do you plan to do this year Rick, Smitty, and Pexter? I am doing the Mountaineer in June, TPS in July, MD Strongest Man in August, and possible Strongest Man in PA in October (exact same event as this past weekend, just different name). Not sure what the Diesel guys are doing after TPS. Thanks for the words Dave. -Rick Walker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Lipinski Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 The Power and Bulk's own Kip Miller took first in open and masters heavyweight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRBeyers Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 The guy who won my class won the overall strongest man title. Not sure of his name. Mannino won the SHW class Rick, His name is Jamey Niewojna, and he is one of my training partners. When it comes to footspeed, and back strength, he's downright freaky for his BW. And that was only his SECOND contest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedd Johnson Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 What a great contest. It was nice seeing Rick out there competing after a full year off due to his torn pec. Watching Mannino dominate was no surprise, especially after the previous weekend's show he put on at his gym. Smitty came through big time int he deadlift. The entire crowd was cheering for him I think. Mark gave it his all on every attempt and I thought for sure more than once he was going to puke all over the tile floor. -Jedd- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
