Hell on the Hill 2003

Portland, Oregon - June 28, 2003

This contest is set for June 28th, 2003. If needed, it will be postponed to a rain date, August 16th, 2003. Events listed below are in the order that they will be contested in. Yoke Walk, Farmer's Walk and Axl Press will have a 75 second time limit. The deadlift will have a 60 second time limit per attempt. Only conventional style deadlifts will be allowed - NO SUMO. You are allowed multiple set-downs on the Yoke and Farmer's. You may set down the Axl, but must keep your hands on the bar. This contest will be limited to a total of 20 competitors, exclusive of the Open division. Due to high demand, entry into this contest will be awarded on a first come, first served basis. If you are interested in competing, contact Tod Becraft. Due to the possibility of having to change the date to August, we will require entry early, but competitors will not be asked to pay until the day of the contest.

This is a NASS sanctioned contest. Membership is required and you can purchase it the day of the contest for $25 if needed. All divisions of this contest, exclusive of the Open Men's class, will be sanctioned under NASS. This contest will serve as a national qualifier for the NASS Nationals.

Due to different reasons, the Open Men's class will consist of one of the top local heavyweight amateurs, Brice Gimbel, competing against new IFSA pro Jon Andersen. The two men will compete in more of an exhibition type atmosphere, with approximately three events contested, rather than a full blown contest. Prizes will be awarded.
