Actually I think both styles of team events are great. TYR cup is cool because it’s best player vs best players. But the CrossFit games is way more strategic because every member has to do every workout. Specialists usually don’t do well at the games but would do great at Grid League. Both are cool team formats. If CrossFit changes, I’d want it to be a mix of 1-2 best vs best and 4 events all members.
I loved it back when they had their TV deal. I always said years ago when it started that this is what the CrossFit team competition should look like. Maybe not the movements, but the format.
This was awesome! I've seen the united grid league pop up on my Instagram as well and have been very curious about it. These events look amazing to watch.
I was gonna say I’m super happy Jules didn’t pop a hammie on the sprint, but karma still got him with the no rep. I mean, he knows New Jersey doesn’t look like that, why would he say that to Paola?
17:55 I totally have to push back on your opinions regarding CrossFit’s Team Event; that is very literally the point of "TEAM" WODs, to bring out the Team vs Team in various aspects requiring teamwork in many forms… Some CFG events/tests are opportunities for your so-called "best v. best" - but you can not lose the active teamwork aspect & whole TEAMs working at once, together… Tackling various things… Team & Individual are different in these ways and we love them each in their own ways! Grid League is cool on their approach for sure, but please maintain CFG Teams to true Team v. Team WODs & Tests & Events please😅😅
Fair argument. I think we are saying purely for a spectator experience. The test of the teams at the games are cool… but the visual experience of seeing a team of talented outliers was fascinating and entertaining.
All valid points. But the only thing that matters - truly - are advertising dollars, which require eyeballs. Every time team WODs show up on CF event livestreams, viewership plummets (fewer eyeballs, less advertiser interest, and less money for the organizers). GRID looks ridiculous, but entertaining. My guess is that combining CF’s brand name recognition, GRID’s competition format, and Hyrox’s social media presence would produce a halfway decent ROI that advertisers would be interested in.
This honestly looks terrible. Crossfit has ruined itself with poor workout designing and this looks like it's trying to combine movements together to make them higher difficulty. Simple is better, just look at Hyrox

We had a blast with you guys, come back anytime. You looked good in those unis too 😍
I agree with Marston, I wouldn't pay to watch it in person, but I wouldn't pay to watch a CF competition either...I'd watch it here though!
This scene seems awesome. The people seem awesome. Having everyone wear cool, bright team wear is awesome. Yeah, you guys hooked me with this one.
This is awesome...loved seeing you guys get out there and throw down with GRID.
So much fun having you guys out there with us!! Thank you for making it special! Come back for playoffs in November 16-17!!
Comparing the trails and views to NJ is a wild take 😂
I laughed out loud at that comment 😂
When dodgeball meets CrossFit.
😂😂 as a Grid player, I love this Mashup analogy
I was just thinking about this a couple weeks ago. I still have 2 pairs of Grid League shorts from like 10 years ago.
I remember when Dancer was in the original Grid League
Pau Leyes being in this video is amazing!

Great video Really captured the energy of the sport
I enjoyed watching this as the early years watching this channel. When I got obsessed 😂🎉👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I have watched it online and it is incredible!

Love this y’all nailed it!
Looks fun, good for them. I'd check it out if they ever came to my area.
Every joint hurts watching this.... but yes entertaining like a Gladiator in Rome entertaining.
I went to two Grid events back in 2014. I liked it and am stoked they have been keeping it going.
The girls tops on y'all! 🤣
Thank you for highlighting GRID and giving it the exposure it deserves! 🎉
Would make a nice TV show. But WHO can actually do this! Can it scale down for normies and muggles?
Great coverage!! thanks guys!
Grid League is awesome. I hope it gains popularity and grows. It's very entertaining especially if you are into Crossfit.
What a great video. Grid league is insane.
Great video! Thank you guys
Love this episode of community for grids
11:23 Shout out to Fruitvale and Lake Merritt!! =) This is a really interesting video. Love seeing folks doing their thing!
Such a good episode.
Yo Mars on the whoop recovery… check to see if you are eating after dark… high sugar after dark- I can cut my HRV in half…
Grid league is so fun to watch! Genuinely like the fittest version of stupid human tricks 😂
Loved this episode! 🥞
great work! Explore more sports and I'll be watching!
You guys make my day 😂 as always 🇬🇧 ❤
Noice! Grid has always been cool.
Thanks for the awesome video
This was awesome! I've seen the united grid league pop up on my Instagram as well and have been very curious about it. These events look amazing to watch.
Some of my faves!!!
So fun!

Y’all should cover Hyrox. That’s the future.
We have. We did a video on the world championship last year.
@ ah man. Need to check this out.
Julien is funny man 😂
Let’s go. Awesome episode.
Grid League ist next level. Crossfit is nothing compared to it........these are the fittest on earth
Grid rocks!
Crying at the backflip attempt on the beach.
If you check the tape again marston beat the guy that did the flip, marston cross the finish line before the guy landed
I would blow up after about 5 burpees at that speed.
This is Crossfit on Steroids! :D

palpitations looking over those rocks , yikes!
let's FKN goooooO!!!!!!!!! love you guys, making a tough day better, ty!
This seems waaay too complicated and unnecessary lol
This just looks like a mess of unorganised caos.
All sports seem that way when you first watch them, before you know the rules and tactics
This is cool. CFHQ is a third rate org
Do they have a hyrox episode?
Yeah we went to the world championships last year and also did a team relay episode.
@ fun! Thanks
My morning TV during hack-squat sessions! Keep it up guys! 💪🏻❤️
What's up Jules! I'm riding Bart and watching this episode to keep me sane. Thank you Butterybros! Much love from the Bay
Crossfit athletes saying ANYTHING else is dangerous is laughable...
Grid is nonsense and should be given no spotlight at all. It’s one of those things that’s holding CrossFit back.
Is it?
This honestly looks terrible.
Crossfit has ruined itself with poor workout designing and this looks like it's trying to combine movements together to make them higher difficulty.
Simple is better, just look at Hyrox
But this isn't crossfit🤷🏻♀️
Hyrox has great standards. No one will do Hyrox in 5 years.
@@amberbost6735 never said it was
Complicated is better. Just ask the NFL.
Well I mean the girl, the hot girl who raced Heebs cheated at the RMU’s. She just did. But it was still a lot of fun haha. 👊💯🔥💪🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Original Grid was before my time but this is insane, would not mind being a spectator for this . Awesome as always bros 😎🧈
Come watch in Fort Lauderdale on Nov 16/17th! Playoffs and Championships are on deck...
