Thanks. It's going to be a lot of fun.

Surprises related to this contest will be announced in the coming months.

First surprise:

For each of the twelve events, the person with the top result in each weight class will earn $20. So if someone manages to obtain the top result in his weight class for all twelve events, he'll win $240, in addition to a large trophy.

Everyone has their pet lifts -- hopefully this will allow the cash prizes to be spread around a bit.

I have decided to cancel this event for this year. I just have too much stuff going on this summer and will not be able to give the amount of attention to this contest that I would like. I hope to put it together next year. I hope no one that was planning on coming is too disappointed.

The next contest that I will organize and compete in will be the International King Kong Grip Challenge on October 24th.
