1. CIRCUS DUMBBELL
Equipment Allowed: Chalk, Wrist Wraps, Elbow Sleeves, Knee Sleeves, Warmer Shorts, One Soft Belt, One Hard Belt
Time Limit: 60 seconds
Scoring: Max Reps
On the start command of the judge, athlete will have 60 seconds to complete as many clean and press each rep as possible. The bell can be cleaned with two hands, but the supporting hand must be removed before the athlete begins the press. The judge will give a down command for a good rep. If a down command is not given and the athlete drops the bell, no rep is given. A down command will be given when the athlete has pressed the bell overhead and has a locked elbow, standing straight up and down, squared feet, control of the implement, and looking at the judge. If any athlete has an elbow lockout issue, it is their responsibility to notify the judge before the event on their turn. Once the athlete gets a down command, they must have the bell touch the floor before beginning the next press attempt. The bell can be dropped overhead but MUST be done with control and guided to the floor. A “tree drop” will result in a ZERO for the event. Please respect the equipment. The bell must be dropped on the stall mats.

Distance: 50 feet down, 50 feet back

Once the tip of the yoke crosses the line, the athlete will drop the yoke, turn around, re-pick the yoke and carry it 50 feet back. If the athlete does not finish the total run in 60 seconds, a distance will be taken. Athlete has unlimited drops. A slide penalty of 5 seconds will be given to anyone who slides the yoke.

Judges will be giving an Up and Down command. No touch and go reps. Athlete will be given a down command once a good rep is completed. Judges are looking for shoulders back, hips through, knees locked. If the bar is dropped before the down command, no rep will be given. If the bar is lifted before the up command, no rep will be given. No finger tipping the bar while using straps. Deliberately dropping the barbell from the top will result in a ZERO for the event.

If the stone rolls off the table the stone must be loaded again. If at any point the stone rolls away, that still counts against your time. Hands are not allowed to be placed on the table until the stone is on top of the table. Athletes are allowed to wear a non-comp shirt for stones or go shirtless if they choose to. However, no grip shirts will be allowed. There will be a tacky area where athletes must apply and remove their tacky. Not removing tacky in the designated area will result in an automatic zero for the event.
