I'll slap in a new set of batteries and an empty memory card in the digital camera to try to get some good photos. My camera has a tendency to take blurry shots, so you guys just need to hold real still :)

How high was that deadlift? 18"?

[DaneGarreau]

How high was that deadlift? 18"?

It was on an apparatus. Travis explained it to me last night, but i have no idea what he was talking about, lol. But apparently it was sort of like the one at WSM, but with a different kind of pivot point.

[Dave Ostlund]

It was a side handle deadlift and it felt similar to picking up FW implements but easier because it was a stable apparatus. It was probably a little bit lower that 18".

[SBaier]

Hey Dave, great job - you are incredible with those stones bro! I met you at the Heartland in 2003 (I didn't compete that year), and last year I met your powerfull friend Jeff Peterson (he kept beating me out of everything). You guys are both great people for this sport - friendly and strong!

[SBaier]

Great Job Jesse! It's impressive how well rounded you are in each event!

[MarshallWhite]

Hey Travis
Congrats!!
King of stones????? Not too shabby for your first pro comp. But the 520 still sits on the ground. hahahaha no respect from the unit!! You've lucked out of not getting the barbie this time. :D seriously though, great job. way to rep texas

[Callie Marunde]

Jesse did AWESOME!! One of the crowd favorites, and mine too ofcourse! Over all the strongmen seemed to draw a big crowd, and they all enterained well. It was great to get to know some of the newer guys like travis and dave, and their dads who came to watch... btw dave tell your dad hi from me! and lets try to that funny video up!
