Theo Burggraaff (hol) V Steve Gardener (eng) Supermatch


David Horne

Recommended Posts

One week to go. I'm looking forward to reffing this.

Elizabeth Horne will be trying out strongman equipment for Mike Betty, I will attempt a bend of some sort, and I think Nick will have a go at something in the contest breaks.

Should be a nice day of getting to know new faces.

So who will win? I think it'll be close, and it'll depend who competes well.

All the best.

See you then,

David

If everyone arrives at 1100-1130 we can kick things off by 1200. If people wanna come earlier that's ok with me but I'm planning on having a light meal at 1000 ish. Running order is as above. The main difference for this kind of event is timing.

Usually there is a decent size group and so one can rest if there are 8 or more other guys in your group. With five events it's usual to have a 20-30 minute break mid way through (2nd or 3rd event). However, as David has indicated it would be great (and give me and Theo a chance to get our breaths back) if people wanna try stuff out or put on shows in between. Liz, I understand, wants to try our farmers log and maybe a light stone etc. David may put on a bending masterclass and Nick can do stuff that freaks people out who haven't seen it before. We have a shit load of toys and of course loads of our supplements for sale.

The guys usually train Saturday but this is the first 'event' we've held here and so they will bring their better halfs and kids along and train events Sunday.

I hope Theo and I are ready to put on a show for you - we've both trained hard, very hard, for this even though the numbers will not count towards any records. And there should be enough to keep all you grip nuts happy.

Just a heads up, that I'll be bringing some Wrist Developers and other stuff down to the supermatch so that people can see it, and maybe buy one if they want.

This should be a good contest, I'm hopefully going to come along and would love to try out some of the stuff if possible.

David, if you could bring some of those one hand lift handles I'll buy one off you, cheers.

Best of luck to both guys.
