Just like the this year's HomeTeamNS Strongman Challenge, the Team Iron Behemoths' Strongman Smackdown will feature all 3 qualifying events - the tyre flip, the sled pull, and the farmer's walk.
The following are the rules and regulations of each station, similar to that of the HomeTeamNS Strongman Challenge.
The Tyre Flip
1. Contestants are required to flip a 250kg tyre over a distance of 15m in the shortest time possible.
2. Contestants must start with the tyre behind the starting line and the event is only completed when the tyre crosses the finishing line.
3. The maximum time allowed is 5 minutes.
4. Should the contestant not complete the event, the distance the tyre travelled will be measured and taken into account during the official ranking.
The Sled Pull
(Note: The Sled Pull is similar in nature to the SCDF Red Rhino Pull. If you can move this sled easily, you sure as hell can move the Rhino easily at next year's Strongman Challenge. All of us Behemoths agree the sled is harder than the Rhino though!)
1. Contestants are required to pull a sled weighing 240kg over a distance of 15m in the shortest time possible.
2. Contestants are required to have the attached rope around their upper bodies
3. Contestants are required to pull the sled with their backs facing the sled,
4. At no point in time are the contestants allowed to have their hands come in contact with the ground.
5. Contestants must start with the sled behind the starting line and the event is only completed when the entire sled crosses the finishing line.
6. The maximum time allowed is 5 minutes.
7. Should the contestant not complete the event, the distance the sled travelled will be measured
and taken into account during the official ranking.
The Farmer's Walk
1. Contestants are required to walk a distance of 15m carrying a 100kg log in each hand in the shortest time possible.
2. Both logs must be carried at the same time.
3. No lifting straps or hooks are allowed. Only gloves and chalk are allowed.
4. Contestants are allowed to drop the logs and pick them up again to carry on with the event.
5. Contestants must start with the logs behind the starting line and the event is only completed when the entire length of both logs cross the finishing line.
6. The maximum time allowed is 5 minutes.
7. Should the contestant not complete the event, the distance the contestant travelled with both logs will be measured and taken into account during the official ranking.
