      Clint made up the Buffville stones. He may have an idea. I tried to lift the replica stones in Columbus, but never thought to look at how the metal was secured.

        I just read your write-up. I love the first person format. I was trying to write one more as a news story.

            Question about the Rim Lift. The USAWA Rulebook says the rim cannot be deeper than 1 inch. Is that from the top plane of the plate to the base of the rim or the overall width of the plate? All of my weights are thicker than 1 inch.

            In terms of top plane of plate to base of rim:

            York Milled – 0.75″
            Schisler – 1″
            Billard Olympic – 1.25″

              I am planning on driving out from Denver unless weather conditions pose a safety risk. Good line up of events.

                Ben, can I add your results to a revised King Kong write up? Which venue did you compete at? Do you have any pictures?

                  Perfect. I have been wanting to visit the Dino Gym. There is a lot of history there. It will probably be a game day decision depending on weather as I will be driving out from Colorado.

                  Ideally, I could judge alongside some folks to get closer to being a certified official.

                  I had a lot of fun at King Kong just getting to know some of the strength athletes in Colorado and Wyoming. I learned quite a bit from them as well. I am still trying to appreciate some of the benchmarks like Crushed to Dust and the Captains of Crush series.

                    When and where will the 2024 Grip Championships be held?

                      Good advice on the hay baler belt. It will probably take some trial and error to figure out exactly what lengths and widths I prefer for harnesses. I might have to hold off on this until I visit some established USAWA clubs.

                        Thanks. I had never heard of agriculture belting. That is a serious material.
