Night from me, I'll speak to you tomorrow

Thanks man. My family (Mrs Al's stepfather and stepbrother) really came through.

Mrs Al also just noticed a burst blood vessel in my eye. Now I'm a true gear whore like JB

I thought that 3rd squat looked low enough, hmmm...

Well after my second squat I had a chat with the side ref and he said I shouldn't cut my next one any higher. I tried to hit the same depth but I guess I missed. I have another side view video but the spotters obscure the view right at the point where I'm in the hole I got 1 white light though which means I got close

Just checked the video again and you can see. I'll upload tomorrow. I won't colour anyone's judgement but I think it was in

Well, I thought it was and that was from the front but you can definitely see that you drop so that crease of hip is below top of thigh.

WELCOME TO THE CLUB!

I have no idea how you got a red light from a front judge but 2 whites from the side!!!!! Really is an impressive first run at some gear. Now we can tighten up those straps and really find out what kind of carry over you can get!

Excellent work LtL. You are a friggin beast.

I agree with Babs Al. You definitely got robbed on that last squat. It was no doubt below parallel as Babs said.

Sh!t happens tho and I am sure you will move on to bigger and stronger lifts.

Congratz once again on an awesome meet. If you can survive and thrive during this tough one you now know you can get it done under any circumstances.

It was a tight call. I'll get it next time.

Yeah that red from the front was a bit mental. I plan on tightening the straps once soon and will also be getting a deadlift specific suit so definitely lots more to come.
