Welcome to the third annual Sasquatch Strongman Showdown! 

We are BACK, and we've got an even better show for you this year!

All entries after August 30th will NOT have a promised competition t shirt.

You must have a USS membership prior to weigh ins to compete!

Rules meeting will be held at 8:15am SHARP at Raise the BAR. We will go over any last minute questions and concerns with the events for the day at this time! I will go over the iron podium event rules at this time. Competition will start at 9am SHARP!

There will be a giant designated (athlete only) warm up area; so pack your chairs and coolers! You will have access to a microwave and fridge as well. 

Spectator fee $10 at the door. We will accept cash/paypal/venmo/cashapp

*Weights for events are subject to change at any time*

Sub-classes will be combined if there are less than 3 athletes come show time.

ex. If there are 2 athletes in the women’s LW 123 class, and 4 athletes in the 132 class, the classes will be combined into one single 132 class with 6 athletes.

Order of athletes will not be re-ordered after every event. The order will stay the same as the signups roll in. There is a benefit to signing up early! Order of athletes will reorder for the last event 

Event 1: Max Log

• Women's log will be 10". Men's log will be 12"

• Lockout must be established by your judge. Ultimately, it will come to your judges discretion if the rep is good.
• No feet movement at all, and you must show control of the log
• Do NOT jump the down call
• Do NOT drop the log from overhead. Guide it down to the crash pads. If there is a safety concern present, and you have to bail out to avoid injury, that’s a different scenario. But, no intentional tree topping the log.
