Axle C&P for Reps – 60 sec

Belt, elbow sleeves/cuffs, knee sleeves, wrist wraps allowed.
Sandbag & Keg Carry and load to seated arm over arm sled drag – 75 sec
The athlete will start next to the sled. They will pick up and carry a sandbag that is 20 feet away and drop it next to the sled. The sandbag will not be loaded on to the sled. Then they will pick up and carry the keg that is 10 feet away and load it onto the sled. Once the keg is loaded they will run to a weighted base and sit and brace their feet against it. Then using the rope attached to the sled arm over arm drag the sled to the finish line. The pull will be 30 feet and time will stop when the front of the sled crosses the marked line.
Allowed: Belts, wrist wraps, elbow and knee sleeves, chalk, gloves
Max 18 inch Deadlift – 60 sec
Each athlete will be given three attempts to achieve a max deadlift. Wessel's rule applies (miss one attempt and you're out). The athlete will be given a start command and will have 60 seconds to complete the attempt. The down command will be given once the athlete has their knees and hips in line and locked out under control. Texas power bars will be used for this event with wagon wheels on blocks.
20 pound jumps for every class
Belt, elbow sleeves/cuffs, knee sleeves, wrist wraps, straps allowed NO SUITS or lifting hooks.
Farmers/Husafel Stone - 60 sec
The athlete will pick up the farmers handles and carry them 50 ft across a marked line. Both handles must be completely passed the line. Then the athlete will pick up and carry the Husafel stone back the the original starting line. The Husafel stone must be completely across the line and standing upright for time to stop. DO NOT THOW THE HUSAFEL STONE OR YOU WILL BE DQ'ed
Allowed: Belts, wrist wraps, elbow and knee sleeves, chalk, gloves
Stone over the bar - 60 sec
Athlete will start with hands on the crossmember of the yoke. On the start command of the judge, athlete will have 60 seconds to pick and load the stone over the bar for as many reps as possible. The bar will be set at 48” for women and 52” for men. There will be a catcher feeding the stone back to the athlete. If the stone is thrown at the catcher in an uncontrolled manner, the catcher will ensure their own safety. So if the stone rolls away, that still counts against your time. Hands are not allowed to be placed on the yoke to chest bump over the bar. There will be a tacky area where athletes must apply and remove their tacky. Not removing tacky in the designated area will result in an automatic zero for the event.
Allowed: Belts, elbow and knee sleeves, grip shirts, tacky
