Austin, TX
We are back!
The Riveter II is here!
Last year was a historic event; it was the largest ladies only strongman show in United States history! This year, i’m Doing things a little differently. For starters, and most importantly; this is still a women's only show! Last years event was a great success, but, some ladies could not compete due to the fact that it was a ‘novice’ only show. This year, the flood gates have been opened. You ALL can compete at this years event!
And secondly, this is a United States Strongman sanctioned event; so make sure you have your federation membership! you can purchase this upon registration or anytime between now and show time. You MUST have this membership to compete. Link to get membership below!
