Caw! Caw! Mullet Eagle is back to kick off the summer with strongman, sun, and festival fun!

The Events:

Event 1: Axle with Tires Press

Clean and press a 2” axle overhead for reps. All weights will be on an axle bar, with everything over 220 pounds on an axle with tires. One clean, press away. Chalk, grip shirts, elbow sleeves are all fine.

Event 2: Vehicle Deadlift

You’ll have a vehicle on a frame behind you, and 60 seconds to deadlift it as many times as possible. Handles will be at your side (similar to doing a trap bar deadlift). Chalk and straps are fine. No deadlift suits.

Event 3: Sandbag Toss

You’ll have 60 seconds to toss three throwing bags over the crossbar behind you. This year, we’ll use sandbags with handles. Women will have a 12 foot high crossbar, Men will use a 14 foot crossbar.

Event 4: Harnessed Truck Pull

Get in a harness and drag a big truck behind you down Main Street Manteno. Last year, we pulled a HUGE Ford F650. We’re hoping to get the F650 again or another great vehicle. There will be a guide rope.

The Festival:

Heroes, Hogs, and Hot Rods is an annual festival that benefits Project Headspace and Timing, an amazing charity that helps veterans and the local community. In additional to the strongman awesomeness, there will also be a car show, vendor fair, live music, food, veteran’s resources, and more! Bring your family and friends out for a whole day of fun!

Guest Judge:

Pro Strongwoman Inez Carrasquillo will be our special guest judge! Inez is fresh off her win at this year’s Arnold Strongman Classic. She also holds the current title North America’s Strongest Woman, is the 2024 Rogue Invitational winner, and holds the Log Press World Record! Plus, she’s an all-around great person, and you’ll love meeting her!
