2006 California Strongman Challenge

I saw you compete hareboll, and you did great. Keep up the good work, and I bet you will come in 20 pounds heavier next year.

Thanks for putting on a great show team apt.

It wont be hard to come in 20 lbs heavier because I usually weigh 180, somehow I got sick this past week before competition and I just couldnt eat. I even took the week off and had been eating good and clean for like 2 weeks and trying to keep my calories up. Yea, next year Im planning on kicking that damn axle’s a$$ thats the only performance of mine im really pissed about this year. I just couldnt grip it for the life of me.

Team apt- Damn, i didnt know the Rv weighed 19,000, sick. Yea, seriously though, you guys put on an awesome show and made me feel welcome, even for being the small guy on the totem pole. I am DEFINITELY planning on coming back next year and im gonna be gunning for a top placing this next time. I think im building myself a brand new atlas stone to play with in these next couple weeks if i can scrounge up some cheap stuff to build with. I had a small stone (170) at home to play with for reps but when it came to the third stone at the competition I was in new territory. See you in the future.

p.s. thanks for the kind words

Dr. Martin said the wrong weight on the Rv so see you did alot better then you thought. I will be buying more molds for stones here in a couple of weeks if you wanna come down and we can make you one up so you can take home. Keep training an dyou will do fine next year.

Oh hellz yes.

Yea, your stones turned out sweet looking, the one i made out of a plaster mold of a mikasa ball has a whole bunch of rough sides to it. It was cool because i didnt need tacky but it ripped my arms up every time.

As for sending you pics, those three i posted were about the best I have right now, some of my other friends who came took photos but i havent got ahold of them yet, feel free to make the dvd without waiting on me but I will try and scrounge them up soon and send them to you.

Keep it up bro!

Awesome work!
I’ve got an aquaintence that’s got 100lbs on ya and he didn’t get one of those!
Are the full results posted anywhere? I couldn’t find them online.

The car deadlift, car I guess weighed roughly 3,580 People said it felt like 500-600 in the hands. This is the only event I did REALLY well on, I tied for first in my division with 7. I still look like im gonna blow my organs out and probably just did well cuz im short and have longer than average arms, but im happy. [/quote]

this is like the 3rd forum I’ve posted these pics in but I don’t care. That was so much freakin’ fun I can’t wait for my next contest…thanks again Dave!!!

1st time with any stone over 250…330 went…360 won’t beat me again.

I dont know if they are posted online yet, i have the full results on paper with me but there is so much to post, what specifically are you looking for? Also, thank you for the kind words, but dont think too little of your friend, for the heavies they added i think 90 lbs on the apparatus, near the handles.

Also, girvin, I didnt recognize you in person there, you might not remember but you helped me with ideas on how to build a farmers walk setup to practice with, I shoulda said hi.
