Rules

Running Order

  • The log lift will be before the deadlift.
  • Athletes are allowed to compete in only one of the events for static monsters if they choose, but will not be judged or qualify on the USS scoresheet if they choose to do this.

Scoring

  • For Static Monsters,  final score is a combined total of your heaviest completed Log Lift and heaviest completed deadlift under the below rules.
  • The highest total in each division will be declared the winner of that division.
  • If two totals are the same in any division, the competitor that weighed in the lightest will be declared the winner of that class. If however the competitors are listed as the same weight at the weigh-in, then it will count back to who had the heaviest log lift.
  • Athlete will still get a score even if they “Zero” one of the lifts.

The Log Lift

  • Competitor will have 60 seconds to complete the lift after being given the go ahead from the judge/ref
  • log must be controlled back to the ground. (No Throwing of the implement). The log does not need to be returned to the chest on the descent, only controlled to the ground.
  • Any dropped lift will result in a failed lift and will not count. If you are told your lift does not count, you may attempt it again providing you still have time within your allotted 60 seconds for that particular lift
  • Each competitor has 3 attempts.
  • 60 seconds to complete the lift after the whistle blows. Lifter can continue to lift until the full 60 seconds are up.
  • Competitor nominates their opening attempt for both events at the time of checking for the event.
  • Competitor can not drop their nominated weight after a failed attempt or a completed attempt.
  • No minimum weight increase. This is due to international events crossing over to lbs or kgs.
  • No points awarded if no complete lifts are counted
  • Lift is completed when the judge calls “down”. To receive the “down” call, the lifter must have knees, hips and shoulders locked out and head “through”. Watch this VIDEO
  • Competitor may change their first lift, once only, up to 5 minutes out from the start of the event, not after.
  • Competitor to nominate their second lift weight immediately after completion of their first lift

  • Spotter on Log Lift: if a spotter is on the log lifting event and they intervene with a lift, the log has to be reset to the ground for the lift to start again. If it is deemed that the log spotter stepped in too early, which can only be ruled by the judge, then the lifter can opt to have another 60 seconds added to their time then and there, or they can take this lift again at the end of the round of their flight. If the lifter chooses to continue during their current 60 seconds, they will not be allowed to take another 60 seconds after the round, if they fail during their current lift period.
  • The log can not be rested on the top of the head during the lift. It may however be allowed to touch the head during the upward trajectory.
