[QUOTE=Jim Ryan;1255263]Looks like they have the triangle rig set up. Not sure if the movement (bar MU) will be any different or not.[/QUOTE]

Ah, you're right. Just noticed it there in the background of the C&J

I didn't take the judges course this year. Are the legs/feet allowed to go above the bar or rings for the muscle up? I remember at one time they were not allowed.

The commentators mentioned in the teen / masters events that the feet weren't allowed to go above the bar.

Yeah, I got our marketing intern to run the numbers earlier this week. Dont tell the boss :P

Iceland has a legitimately huge CrossFit market + genetics of course. ;)

COUNTRY- AFFILIATE PER POPULATION

ICELAND 32,974
NEW ZEALAND 39,976
AUSTRALIA 40,610
UNITED STATES 47,721
CANADA 71,931
SWEDEN 74,690
IRELAND 86,974
DENMARK 128,835
UNITED KINGDOM 153,191
SPAIN 206,399
SOUTH AFRICA 319,538
GERMANY 476,962
FRANCE 493,746

Surprised Canada, Ireland, and UK so low
Surprised to see Iceland, and Oz / NZ beat out USA

Looking at the points it's gonna be an exciting final day

MEN
1st and 2nd Battle = Frazer / Smith
3rd = Sager

I don't see Sager catching Frazer / Smith for 2nd
And I don't see Panchik catching Sager for 3rd


WOMAN
1/2/3 Battle = Sigmondsdottir / Davidsdottir / Webb
But I don't see Toomey catching 3rd place

:pepper:

I feel terrible for the 2 NorCal girls having to do this long event on their own.

What's the schedule like for the rest of the day (teams and individuals) as far as event times? And will it all be available through the Watch ESPN app, even if it's airing live on ESPN?


All times are GMT -7. The time now is 12:01 AM.
