USAWA

This year the Dino Gym Challenge will be dedicated to a long time Dino Gym club member, Dean Ross. Dean passed away last year on March 9th, at the age of 80 so this competition will mark one year since his death.

Dean was liked by everyone. He attended almost every event at the Dino Gym and always had plenty of interesting stories to tell. He traveled to USAWA events all over the country, and always drove. He often would finish a comp and then get in his truck to drive overnight home to Tulsa.

Dean loved all the lifts, and broke many records in a wide array of different lifts. For this memorial meet I picked these lifts for a reason as they were some of his favorites as he performed them in Gold Cups or Presidential Cups.
