"Beautiful form - it walked up his thighs"

Oh dear !

Hall's lift on the other hand was a lovely thing - huge strength. I just have to get over the straps, but those aside - I liked it.

AKA the great reset

To Thors Credit that is 30kg pb. Hitching is allowed, so great determination to stick with it until lock out.

Although there's talk of Thor having had his head turned by TV and celebrity status, he does seem to keep eliminating weaknesses.
He's now probably likely to take 3rd in a deadlift event in a WSM final (behind Shaw and Eddie), like he did this year. There isn't much left for him to work on until he'll really take some beating.

I dont think hes got any stronger. He has pulled a pretty easy 420kg no suit so no surprise he pulled 450kg with suit and a lot of hitching.

At this competition last year he failed 435 suited. 15+kg in a year is a good improvement at this level.

He could have done 425kg clean/raw at giants live comp so add suit and hitching and 25kg increase isnt very much, not much more than 5% of the lift. Maybe he hadnt learnt to use suit before or had it set wrong.

Regardless of actual weight shifted I think he has proven that he isn't going to hemorrhage points on the deadlift event now like it was predicted he'd do by a lot of people (myself included) on here before WSM.
That said, without bulking up to Brian Shaw-esque size he might keep finding himself 2nd or 3rd.

What do you think of guys rolling the bar before the lift- isn't deadlift supposed to be a "dead" weight?

Is this allowed in powerlifting?

momentum in one plane of motion has no effect on momentum in a perpendicular plane of motion
