Rob McMurren Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 (edited) Ball bearing lift, awesome and really painful at the same time. No medley? Edited September 20, 2017 by Rob McMurren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Roussin Posted September 20, 2017 Author Share Posted September 20, 2017 No medley this time. Main reason is that I might not run the contest at my place (due to growing attendance) and it would be a major pain to lug all of the stuff to another location. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Dube Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 So pumped for this, great looking contest Eric! I'm honored that the dubecube will be featured. Also, this will be my first recurring contest! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob McMurren Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Possibly a new 105+ champ this year as well, if I stay at my current weight i'll be in the 105s 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Roussin Posted November 26, 2017 Author Share Posted November 26, 2017 This contest will be run using a Last Man Standing format. The only exception is the dynamometer event for which the score will be determined by the best of three attempts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riccardomagni Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Ottawa is on my list of international contest destinations, even as a guest lifter... hopefully soon! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chez Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 (edited) I really like that you have the Dynamometer as an event. Test of crush strength without the technical side of setting and you don't need a million grippers which have unique characteristics (width, knurling etc) or large jumps.

It’s also very quick to run. Helps in a contest that features several events. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its also probably the fairest and most accurate way to test people on crush. I'm looking into purchasing a home in the future and running a contest again. I may have this in a future contest. Your events also look like a blast Eric. Maybe one day I can make it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Roussin Posted December 18, 2017 Author Share Posted December 18, 2017 Upon further consideration, a 30-item medley has been added as a final event to the contest. I've acquired lots of fun goodies this year that are just begging to be featured in a medley! Medley details will be posted by the end of December. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Climber028 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 What purpose are the holes in the pinch blocks? Never seen that before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming you mean the holes in the 2" block. They serve no purpose. This was salvaged steel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
