Re: 2013 Open, Regionals and Games Thread
What about those lifting wrap things that curl around the bar? Seems like cheating to me, but I know there are athletes that want to use them.
Anything in the rules that prohibits them?

Just got posted. Doesn't mention "Crossfit" but looks like an event crossfiters might be interested in. ;) Some very cool programming.
Anyone...

Re: 2012 Open, Regional and Games thread
Heh.. it has it's advantages and disadvantage. Not as accurate, and you have to dig for squats, but I find it is more sustainable over larger rep sets. I would never bother with <30 rep wods.

Re: 2012 Open, Regional and Games thread
I hope so, it would be nice to have a definitive answer on it.
Using you arms on air squats seems to violate the clause, yet is allowed. As is doing DU's backwards (also allowed).

Re: 2012 Open, Regional and Games thread
Absolutely NOT trolling. :) I did all 150 wall balls this way. The ball is caught backwards. You toss the ball up over your head, while looking up at your target (upside-down) . Once the ball hits...

Re: 2012 Open, Regional and Games thread
You should try it out. We did it as a bit of a joke, but found the movement is very efficient. I got my first 55 WB's unbroken (which is good for me). It's much more like a kettle bell swing, and ...

Re: 2012 Open, Regional and Games thread
No, I understand how it works. I just don't see how it makes a lot of sense to score it that way. There shouldn't be huge discrepancies in rankings based on a relatively small numbers of burpees. If...

Re: Hand Protectors and 12.3
No grips at all would have made some kind of sense (never mind bleeding hands), but they didn't say that. They said you could use tape. If you were lame you could probably rig a dowel into a tape...

Re: 2012 Open, Regional and Games thread
Nor Cal
How is it possible that #215 gets 505 (106) 488 (60) 255 (284)
# 217 (me) gets 1078 (94) 58 (77) 123 (327)
So... 12 more burpees than me, 14 less snatches, and 43 less reps of 12.3...

Re: Hand Protectors and 12.3
And they just decided on this when? Yesterday? After the event already was released?
It's absurd that you can use tape and not leather grips. There is no advantage to one over the other. Bad call.

Re: 2012 Open, Regional and Games thread
The thing is, with a little more thought, you can both accomplish this... and be inclusive of the other athletes.
Sure you can program exclusively for the top 10% and ignore the other 30 thousand...

Re: 2012 Open, Regional and Games thread
Sure, but they could have programmed it to separate the 85-95 folks without creating a ginormous ambiguity for the rest of the athleates. We all paid $20 too. It seems like it wasn't well thought out...
