Step up to the platform and test your strength in one of the most iconic strongman lifts—the Viking Deadlift. This event challenges brute pulling power, grip, core stability, and the will to grind when the weight feels unmovable.

Competitors will battle head-to-head on the Viking Deadlift apparatus, pulling from a 21-inch fixed bar height that tests leverage, positioning, and raw strength. Each successful lift brings you closer to proving your dominance in this test of power.
