Well done Rogue Fitness for putting this show on you tube for us to watch, it was brilliant and Big Loz was great as a host.
@@matteokayden1181 Grow up.
Disgusting, I suggest you break up with your gf(for both your sakes) and wait until you find someone who you trust or are mature enough not to worry about her Instagram.
Big loz is the best host!
It’s been terrible to watch what are you on about, yes fair play for putting on here for people but as a program to watch it’s all over the place
Pop
Is it just me or should big loz be hosting every strongman show. Such a great speaker and so much knowledge of the sport
It's not just you. He's been the best announcer of any strongman event I've watched(and heard).
@@robertturner2475 no doubt. He makes it sound professional, whereas some recent past events have been hard to listen to lol now if they can get some better camera work this would be perfect. Still a great event to watch.
I've always loved the voice when brian shaw did the crazy humvee tire deadlift with a torn bicep and the announcer was like "power, POWER" sort of iconic
@@nuttynate797 colin bryce?
Loz should do the commentary and Liz should do the interviews with the athletes after each event 🤩
Nice to hear Uncle Loz doing his thing, I wanted to see him do commentary for the Shaw Classic like this
Yep and do interviews with the competitors for sure.
And the Arnold!
And jesus is the other commentator annoying blurting mostly nonsense directly in Loz' sentences.
@@joachimstraub7096 how do ppl still not understand that you have to have a voice for the layman? plenty of viewers wont know what's going on, so this guy asks the expert questions and points out things that the audience might be curious about so that Loz can explain it for them
@@manfrombritain6816 colour and play by play. All sports have it.
Interesting event but so many issues with the broadcast unfortunately.
1st: Camera angles - Why have head to head events when we got to see only one person at the time?
2nd: Sound - Hearing what is going on at the comp is such an important part of the show. It did not feel visceral as we did not hear the implements moving, athletes grunting etc.
3rd: No graphics - It should be fairly easy to add basic graphics: points totals after events, how many reps athlete has done currently, timer.
Pads should not be falling apart on dumbbell press
The tire didn’t fit under the platform it was supposed to go under
@@brockmeade4450 Agreed on both points, also Smaukstelis had to load his own plates and no other athlete did. Reportedly the flag pull was timed differently depending on the judge (either flag going up or down) and flag did get stuck as well. Final graphics missed Tom Stoltman. What an absolute shitshow.
I agree with all the points raised buy all of you...alot of room for improvement there seemed to be a lack of organisation slightly aswell....Still good of rogue to show the event for free & live aswell.
Loz was a great present him and Eddie hall together commenting on WSM would be good 👍
Couldn't agree more. Also on the commentary Loz did great as usual, the other guy was bordering on annoying.
When your lead is dependent on how fast they load the plates for you...
Exactly... 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
That was awful
ya that was actually kind of embarassing to watch. what does loading plates onto the bar have to do with the lift? it was a dumb idea i hope its never done again
One of the dumbest thing I've seen so far in strongman...
Terrible decision
I like Big Lozs Commentary, PLEASE be sure to have him back!👍🏾🙂
And another live event that could use some more effort on the production.
Director: ok guys we have two deadlifters going head to head. Keep both in view until the event starts then put a camera on one of them and don’t mention the other guy.
Viewers: I am so happy I got to see one guy do his lifts.
Yep split screen them in real time with a timer or rep counter. To bad Bahrain looks like a beautiful place for a competition just poor execution ROGUE should be embarrassed. Did they really do all five events in one day????
Konstantine Janashia has the best arm wrestler in the world as his assistant.
Best arn wrestler its levan saginashvili
Big deal
The Georgian Hulk 💪💪💪💪
Levan is best in the east , not the world. P.A.L won't allow us to know the true world armwrestling champion
Micheal Todd is #1 by default because the europeans and PAL are too scared to have a match.
Even though this has flaws I’m still happy we’re getting it for free and streamed day of. Also Loz is a great host and you can tell how much he loves this sport.
I agree with all of that
I just hope Strongman keeps getting more and more recognition, they're really pushing the human strength in this sport
oh
Rogue always has technical productions flaws. I wish they’d hire me for production!
@@nightwolf9951 I,zczfz XD
Novikov is a freak of nature, everyone thought Mateusz was the next dominator...then this chap appears
I'm really looking forward to Mateusz healing up so we can see these two beasts go head to head.
Novikov is cheater, nothing else. Take away straps from him and he will not be at the podium anymore. He did only stones without cheating/bending the rules.
NOVIKOV BEST
Well, Novikov has certainly improved but let's not pretend the strongman field is as strong as a year ago. The year Novikov won WSM, Mateusz beat him by 19,5 points at the Arnold's, that's completely on another level. Thor beat him by 21,5. Even injured Martins did. If these 3 were in shape and competed, Novikov wouldn't even make the podium.
Mateusz is way stronger than Novikov, just look at his achievements at the Arnorld's. No doubt that a "fresh" Mateusz will crush him.
1. Let us hear the athletes grunting, supporting each other (Come on Tom!) and weights hitting the floor
2. Show both athletes during head to head events
3. Figure out best camera angles beforehand. Angles on the flag event were horrible in the beginning, with camera panning to the weights and we would have no idea how the athlete was pulling throughout the pole
4. Add more info to the screen. Weights, times, points, athlete names
5. For god’s sake don’t add rules just to disregard them later. Don’t include random people scrambling to setup in the middle of the timed event.
6. Whoever thought putting little foam squares together for the dumbbell press event would be a good cushion, fire him.
You've been TOO HEAVILY MUCH cute and nice and polite brother, i would have definitely said more things that went horrible and shameful and pathetically disorganized here.........
Thanks for the live stream!
Unfortunately there were a lot of issues including events, rules, judging and camera. Hopefully this will improve to next comps.
Too many variables with the timed Deadlift! To truly be fair the times should be from the time the bar breaks the floor and then returned. The guys loading the plates shouldn’t be part of this time. And then the 1st guy loads his own plates (as per the rules) for the first few lifts. Ridiculous! 🤦♂️🤷♂️
Agreed,that was a catastrophic failure.
IMO it should have been a deadlift ladder with multiple bars.
@@carlisroy6666 yep
Or they should have five bars and make them progress each lift. probably better to do a fixed weight for reps and time.
Loz was the best part! Confusing contest for a viewer to watch but Loz really salvaged the show for us at home.
Thank god for Loz...I hope Andy Shepherd never commentates on a strongman event ever again...
I'm confused! Weren't they supposed to put plates on themselves on the death lift? Because Aivars was one of the only guys who was strapping himself off the bar to actually load the plates. Even Shivlyakov was strapping himself off the bar to load the plates only to see that that was already taken care of. Everyone else later was strapped on the whole time which is unfair. I honestly don't know what the hell happened there but they should really be clear about what the rules are.
I agree....and seeing as it was "for time" as well, i noticed some of the kids "taking off the clamps" werent paying attention which caused some people to take seconds off the lift, which seemed very unprofessional. Good contest otherwise.
Yeah that was a bad idea from the start and ditched at the last possible second without communicating to the athletes.
Sure a disadvantage for those who unstrapped as it was explained to be done.
@@meatbasedvegan4859 timed events that depend on anyone else besides the competitor makes no sense. Points were robbed by the loaders.
@@0oJoe I agree. You can be the fastest competitor, but if you have to wait for another person, who doesn't care if you win or loose, to load the weights on... their mistakes become your failure.
when you get robbed for time because some kid isn't paying attention to his job...
Yeah. That’s crap
Loz's wife explained that they actually took the time taken mucking around off Aivars time, still poor but at least he wasn't 100% shafted
@@ElGroodleReezo 3-4 seconds on JFs time...guy goes to put the plate on and the kid is looking around not taking the colar off so he can put the plate on -_-
I don't wanna bash this comp cause it was good. Grateful for the livestrem but we need to be seeing scores/times. Hearing judges and equipment being smashed about. The deathlift was a joke, completely unfair. Do head to head and show both people. I wanted to see Tom deadlift and couldn't. I called straight away that the flag was gonna get trapped. If the lessons get learnt then I cant wait for the next 1
@@orlandopockets6372 20 years ago? WUS has only existed for 3 they've been pushing good things out every year since they appeared and done alot of improvements.
deathlift? It's called a DEADLIFT not a deathlift.
@@Danimal77 the event was called death lift as it was deadlifts increasing in weight
JF Caron is underrated
Could be on track to break the world record dead lift depending on this newest injury
This was a poorly organised event. Rules were scrapped from the get go and the mysterious leaderboard which popped up about 3 times was wrong. If they want to gather a greater audience, I suggest getting people in that know how to run and broadcast an event.
At least it's being broadcasted unlike WSM 2020
Absolutely
@@gublaman True, but it was kinda ghetto how they did things.
I agree, at least IMO thats one of the reasons The Arnold's is the best.
The deadlift was the most poor due to the fact they were supposed to load plates themselves that would of cost aivars some points as he was first out
Head to head events and 0 camera work-sad :(
Would be good to know the overall standings after each event not just the event winners
Along with the performance in the graphics.
Nice contest overall. I think some of the contest rules could have been tighter. But yeah nice comp!
I feel bad for JF, with that collar screwup
this really pissed me off to be honest... not fair at all and this event was such a flop.
I’m glad there was a live stream but I’m not gonna lie the production value wasn’t very good. Maybe live streaming strongman isn’t the best idea. Maybe just putting out a well produced show with graphics and great camera angles a day or 2 after the even happens is the best way to watch strongman shows. So basically like hybrid between this and worlds strongest man.
Best you don't watch bro
I agree, especially since most of the athletes have TH-cam channels and upload the content they film from the contest a day or 2 after as well. I literally just saw the Stoltman brothers uploaded a video called “flying to WUS” after the contest already happened.
The format of the Shaw Classic has so far been the best way for the fans to view the contest: do the events, edit the footage professionally, upload the next day. The other organizations need to take notes.
I think they’re also going to put out a professionally edited version. This was for those big fans that want to see everything right away
This was a shambles , elite athletes in other sports don't get treated like amateurs so do they in strongman? This was like something out of the 70's appalling organisation
I dont get how you got that out of this? All the athletes looked like they had a great time on instagram. Do you know something I dont? (genuine curiosity)
Mr anonymous, dude. What are you watching? The first event the rules changed after the start absolutely screwing the first two or three lifters. That was outrageous.
Also,your time depends on how well the loaders do too? Crazy.
Best Live Strongman event ever - your a total moron
yea because in other sports people actually pay to watch,if you tell a strogman fan to give 20$ for a better experience he will be mad.
The head to head prevented us from seeing some of the athletes perform. Heinla took the lead on the deadlift event but we didn’t even see it.
They could've so easily done a wide angle shot and filmed both at the same time, like WSM and Giants Live do. Bit weird
Soooo what happened to loading your own plates on the deadlift?
True the first guy lost so much there, when he didnt know what is going on.
@@TrojiteQ i heard they adjusted his time
@@TrojiteQ they adjusted his time perhaps. But again the fatigue has to be adjusted too
WUS needs to do something about the platform for the dumbbell press
Козацькому роду нема переводу! Браво Алексо!
Дякую Олексо за перемогу!
Proud of Novikov, great performance 💪
Novikov is growing into a household name in Strongman ! 👌💪
All these events should use large horse stall mats rather than these little squares.
I agree, the small mats are moving all over the place, surprised nobody rolled there ankles
I love the rope pull for reps, totally brutal! Kudos to the person who came up with this event.
Really that event was one of the worst events I’ve ever seen
It gets used every decade once lol
Timestamps: Deadlift 21:55, Ropepull 1:13:00, Giant Dumbell 1:44:15, Medley 2:13:10, Atlas Stones 2:52:10
Alot of room for improvements in production and organization, but huge thanks for bringing us this content!
Big congrats to Novikov - what a beast! Great work from Luke as well
That shield made me so nervous the whole time. lol
Thank you rogue for the free live stream, especially during these strange days. But we really mics on the event stage. Hearing the lifting and the groaning, the blood sweat and tears is a big part of the experience.
A lot of money was put into this, but little planning and organizing
It took a lot of planning. Keep in mind they fit the whole competition into 3 hours, in a country that hasn’t hosted something like this, with several languages being spoken, while dealing with COVID-19 restrictions. It had flaws but everything does
@@travisellison7098 I agree with you, but since I live in the same area, and know how things work, it's sad to know that things didn't go well because there's not enough money, instead it was a lack in competencies
@@travisellison7098 33:12 is one of the examples.. If you know the slightest about this thing sport, you'd understand instantly what he want at this moment, yet these people are not trained, and I doubt they even had any briefing before the event. And it's kinda serious matter, you could see Terry jumping to help
I recommend world ultimate strongman taking on all advice from the comments below and learning from the vast amounts of mistakes. Please ensure this is not just money thrown at it next time. All the money with no knowledge at present. I would strongly recommend with investing in a full production team as well as trained individuals educating the spotters. It also begs the question if there was an athlete meeting also as I feel a few of them would of had a lot to say on various things such as small mats that consistently move instead of one large mat as one example.
Bobby Thompson is so impressive. At 1:08:03, you can see he's in first AND last place
Thanks for posting this event
Thank you for this video. It was awesome to watch this.
This is a literal showcase of blood, sweat and tears. Great job man.
thanks for the free stream Rogue!
Oleksii best attribute is his thought out approach, similar to Brian Shaw. A tactician. Strong, explosive, and fast, but smart in approach.
JF is extremely impressive as well, not being the biggest guy yet he looks to be better than ever as he approaches 39 years of age.
Why not frame in the mats on the dumbbell or better yet a solid mat or a single pad? It’s almost dangerous for the athletes to compete on. The last thing they need to worry about is the floor coming out from under them
Crash mats. Problem solved.
That was thoroughly enjoyable. Congrats to all competitors.
Very fun competition. Nothing is ever perfect especially in Strongman but very enjoyable to watch. Thanks for the entertainment to everyone involved.
Loaders/Event Helpers were absolutely useless. Having people who actually understand the sport (and basic instructions!!) would have been a good place to start.
Seriously inconsistent refereeing.
Having said that, the Flag Hoist was a great event.
very consistent approach to loading and very consistent on both sides - what were you watching??
@@joebot9309 dumbbell press in particular was poor from Terry.
Truly absolutely amazing event!
Rauno's deadlift shown so late ...cmon cameracrew....
The way Bobby thompson (my name sake😜) pulled that last deadlift and thought there was more,was absolutely AWESOME!!! MIND BLOWING!!! A BEAST OF A MAN😎🔥🤝
He’s a new face that has a ton of potential. Static beast. I can see him eventually breaking the axle/log record and would have a shot at the deadlift record some day considering he’s only like 27. Gonna see him in a lot of WSM finals if he stays injury free
Petition to have big loz as permanent solo commentator? I feel like the other guys pronunciation of the athletes names changed every single time he mentioned someone. Gotta say, with people losing time on rules changing mid lift, timed events relying on the support not messing up and blind events that allow flags to clog the guide wheel giving unfair disadvantages, WUS not at their strongest today.
Rauño Heinla
Amazing transition, спасибо!!!
22:45 I mean the rules should be clear
Should the athlete load the weight himself or not
This is stupid, and the people helping him are zoned out and very slow. It looks like it's their first time ever handling weights
Imagine in 5 years or so to have an absolute dominator that is Novikov and we will have this stream to look back on
The should've just laid out 5 different axels with each corresponding weight, like the log medley last year's WSM.
They could’ve yeah. The idea was inspired by Trey Mitchell’s WUS feat of strength 400kg deadlift for reps where no one was able to come help him so he loaded all his own weights while being on a strict time schedule. Didn’t seem like they told the athletes though that they actually wouldn’t have to load their own weights
Yes i agree. A deadlift ladder is how they should have gone.
@@sethticer5108 I remember that. Ol' country boy Trey loading up his own weights. Thats the stuff that champions are made of.
The was alot of floors in the organisation of this competition & numerous issues around the rules changing on events & camera angles only seeing one athlete on a head to head!! Alot of room for improvement for 2022.
On a positive note big loz was a great host and thank you to rogue for showing the event live & free of charge.
What a great show. I liked the events chosen and everyone put on a good show.
WUS has joined the Arnold's and WSM as one of the premier strongman events.
this was very enjoyable to watch, thank you for putting it on.
Great live show congratulations to all the athletes
Can’t complaine about a free watch. Thank you.
Well done letting the fans watch this. Thanks Rogue.
WSM could learn something here...
Edit: I'm referring to the free stream. Not the quality of the competition...just to be clear.
I prefer to wait and have a decent contest than urging the athletes for a such a low quality contest
Disagree worlds strongest man is always a great show to watch this felt like amateur hour. And that death by deadlifting event was a complete shambles I hope to never see that in a comp again.
@@MrOasis316 nobody forces you to watch it. Its good for the athletes. They really take care of them with flights and accommodation and the price money is way higher
@@igoryounes3745 agreed
@@igoryounes3745 I think he means that we get to watch it, lol. It can be a chore to see the wsm contests.....many months later.
Seems like the Axel Death Lift is a bit like NASCAR your pit (plate) crew sure could make the difference when measured in tenth of seconds. Everyone of them could have loaded the shield if they used the tire to assist, very questionable like only a couple of guys helping load their weights in the 1st round.
Good Stuff! Thank You Rogue and WUS
Thank you!!!!
AMAZING
I appreciate the content. It's a little slipshod, but it's good to see some strongman again.
Oleksii proves once again he's worthy!! fKn insane!!
ВІТАЄМО НАШОГО БОГАТИРЯ!!!!
Great great show.
Thanks very much for streaming this, wouldn’t have ever been able to see it otherwise 👍🏻😁
Where’s Colin Bryce then? He’s usually commentating at most strongman events? Loz was brilliant though
Awesome from all the athletes well done !!!
Went to sleep woke up to this 💪
If you watch it at 2x speed it looks like Crossfit with Demigods
I'm going to wait until the edited version is posted on core sports. This live stream is unwatchable.
Best live strongman event ever lol
@@joebot9309 it wasn't though. Arnold classic is better
I recall someone saying this contest is better than Worlds . Then it starts off with inconsistencies.
13:30 Best Lift: *DEADLIFT | LOGPRESS* lol
Anyone else love the way the commentator gets hyped up everytime Tom walks in frame 🙌👏
Yeah. Have to turn my volume down when he starts shouting.
Look, I think the stream for the shaw classic was better, however .... finally a stream for a world strongman competition... there's things to iron out but..
Not bad
Shambles
Its embarrassing for the sport that this is on ESPN and Core Sports. How the hell did they get these tv contracts?
Reign, SBD, Rogue. They have these giants backing anything and it will get views.
Oil money.
@@holmgeirgautreksson2451 Sport washing for sure
Very impresive performances from iranian guys
yeah they were both impressive and held their own more than adequately with the "big" names
Happy to see big LOZ!
Disappointing competition or should I say organising dismal coverage .....good loz was there to get the commentary going he helped a lot but the other guy was a junior Colin Bryce annoying as @*&£😂😂😂
That’s kinda funny the Iranians were the ones to use the tire as a stand
Brian is spot on about these Events. They are often so poorly organized. Its frustrating to watch as a fan and surely much more frustrating as an Athlete. They slap big name brands on banners and bring in strongmen and just collect the money. We need people who actually care about the sport organizing and running these things
Now, I think this was overall a good show. More events could have been good, but I guess the 10 stone run equals two events.
The only problem was that first event: it wasnt about the athletes, it was about how fast their loaders were. Either do it as a medley/ladder, or make the competitors do it. Right now its a joke.
The hoist was a good event imo. Maybe some revisions on rules: allowing people to wear gloves really made it different, they could have the rope slip. I guess since everyone was allowed its fair, but I still feel it shouldnt have been allowed.
Excellent
Can’t wait too be live in Las Vegas this year
Love watching super strong guys unreal Nellie
The contest looked poorly organised and the coverage wasn't much better.....
Go watch big Loz on his channel. It's shows more behind the scenes.
Please let us hear the stage! The sound of the implements and the athletes is what makes this sports great! Cut the commentary instead during the events!
Thank you for the stream, it needed improvements for following the action to give the sport the attention it deserves... that being said, there were numerous times during the stream where I was concerned for the safety of the competitors, and it needs to be called out as it plagues strongman events.
Big z from top view ❤️ very gentle movement
Loading platform was way to high for the shorter athletes.
Novikov managed fine!
Great job Loz!! You’re seriously a natural, you would have made the Shaw classic wayyyy better, nothing against Magnuss.
so they go from changing there own weights to formula 1 changes and it's a timed event . that's a shambles
Rob to Luke, 'You okay?'. That's great spotsmanship right there.
I enjoyed it because I love strongman but it was very rough around the edges ,maybe the stream dosent help compared to an edited Giants live tv broadcast but it all seemed a bit homemade somehow
Its Live lmao
@@joebot9309 dosent mean it has to be a shambles ...head to head and were forced to watch the worst of the two
You can tell this is a newer competition, did they do a dry run of the show? The crew doesn’t seem very well prepared
I mean the commentators told us they were going to load their own bar on the very first event and that wasn’t correct, if I was an athlete competing I wouldn’t want to loose because of the confusion of staff and having confusion of events.
They've done a few shows before this ain't their first rodeo...
The Shaw Classic is by far the best test for true strongman strength out of all these competitions. Including WSM. Arnold is still pretty good. Really hope the Shaw Classic blows up and gets really popular.
