Eric Roussin Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 A question for the Blob aficionados out there - Is a Half 110 blob really easier to lift than a Blob50? In the Living Legends Blob Medley line-up, the Half 110 is listed first. I've never attempted a Half 110, so I was a bit surprised that it was identified as easier, despite weighing a few pounds more. I'm particularly interested in hearing from people who've lifted both.

wobbler Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 If its a legacy, does it really weigh more? And the flatter thumb side should make it easier for the same actual weight. Not sure on width difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeezus Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Never lifted a half 110 before, but my 120 is considerably harder than a FatMan and a FatMan is considerably harder than a Blob50, so I would imagine that the 110 is harder than a Blob50.

Lucasraymond Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 They lined them up at Gripmas and the fatman they had was harder than the half 110....if i remember correctly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedd Johnson Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Are we talking a Blob50 or a half 100 Fatman, because those are two completely different Blobs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chez Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I think Andrew had all the blobs in a blob medley for one of his contest back in 2017 so you can ask those guys how they felt. Rob was at that contest and a vid of his run is below Andrew also posted a vid of Kody trying the legends blobs so you can ask Kody to. Having trouble finding that vid though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IROC-Z Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I purchased my Blob50 many years ago and I got it directly from Gordon V. At that time, I remember a discussion about some of the Blob50's being harder than a half York of the same weight because they had a slicker surface on them. The one I have is definitely harder to lift than a Legacy 110. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucasraymond Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 The order I did at Gripmas was 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 (i think those were the light ones) then BLOB50, Half 110, Fatman, Blobzilla (didnt lift Fatman or Blobzilla) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were there both? edit: NVM did some digging and saw there was lol. For some reason I thought the 120 was in the medley though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alawadhi Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Wow many opinions here. It seem to differ a lot then. I have half of 50KG (110 pounds) and it is harder than my fatman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
