  • Pinch Plate Grip Event: last man standing, 30s to complete each individual lift, hands must be within 6" of each other, forward grip only, weight will start at 50lbs and go up in 5-10 pound jumps. Video demo here; https://youtube.com/shorts/oK2t7dLyL0M?feature=share
  • Powerstairs: Fastest Time. 3 separate weights to each be lifted up 3 powerstair steps (9 lifts total). Athlete will only be expected to load the weights up the stairs, NOT backwards down the stairs.
  • Viking Press: Max reps in 60 seconds. Athlete will be facing towards the implement, each athlete can choose for themselves which grip they will use (3 options).
  • Husafell Carry: Max distance, no straps/tacky/suit allowed, no drops allowed. Yes to grip shirts. You will be starting from a box, not the ground.
  • Frame Deadlift: heaviest weight used to score. This will be conducted as last man standing, so we will add weight to the frame and it is the athletes responsibility to speak up and attempt the lift. No limit on attempts, but once you fail you're done with that event. Straps are allowed.

If a tie between top 3 occurs, there will be a bonus event.
