Event 3
SILVER DOLLAR DEADLIFT *RISING BAR*
(10KG JUMPS)
Minimum starting weights:
Rules:
- Athletes will be going 1 at a time
-18” bar hight (distance from the floor to the bottom of the bar)
-Minimum starting weights are set for each class but this does not mean you have to begin your event at this weight.
- Once you have joined the rising bar you are not allowed to skip weight jumps thereafter. we will go up in 10kg increments. This is all about strategy. Begin to light and you will fatigue and risk not lifting the most. Start too late and risk failing your opener and zeroing the event.
- For a deadlift to be deemed a successful lift, the ref will be looking for knees and hips locked out and shoulders locked back behind the chest.
-Figure 9 straps may be used and Figure 8 straps are also allowed, Deadlift suits and briefs are permitted, Maximum use of 2 belts (1 soft belt + 1 hard belt)
-Athletes must also wait for the “down” command from the ref before dropping the weight. a lift wont count if the athlete doesn’t follow the refs command.
-Hitching is allowed.
-We will be using a Power bar with Official Silver dollar implement *as seen in promo vid. (for training proper simulation we suggest training with a deadlift bar elevated at 18” to mimic this implement best.
