Bidding for 2025 USAWA Championships

The calendar is already filling up with meet sanctions for 2025! If anybody is interested in bidding for one of the championship events, please let me know (bethskw@gmail.com) ideally by the end of the year.

You can read more about the different USAWA championships in Sanjiv’s excellent article here. Some have the same host every year by tradition, some rotate, and some haven’t been contested in recent years but could be brought back. The dates and hosts for Nationals and the Presidential Cup are already set, but we have a variety of other championships.

The process of hosting a championship is basically the same as for a regular meet, but no other meets can be held on the same date as a championship—which is why I’d like to get those set on the calendar ASAP.

  • Caleb Day owns the USAWA Saxon Deadlift record at 200 pounds. Jason Dingey owns the
    GSI record at 275 pounds
  • The actual Dinnie Stones weigh 733, but Chad Ullom owns the USAWA Dinnie Lift record at
    825 pounds.
  • 2×5 Saxon Deadlift – Rules are the same as the Saxon Deadlift, except a 2″ x 5″ bar will be used.
  • History of the Lift – A 2×5 Saxon Bar was introduced in Grip Sport at the 2016 Griptoberfest Classic by Aaron Corcorran.  The 5-inch length is important as even the largest hands would not be able to get fingertips under the bar.  Aaron is still #10 on the GSI record list, but Jason Dingey holds to the top spot at 310 pounds.”
  • Details regarding the Exhibition 2×5 Saxon Deadlift: The bar (2” rectangular) must meet the following specifications. The width of the bar must be a minimum of 1.9 inches. There must be no rotation to the sleeves of the bar. There must not be a knurling on the bar. The weight of the bar must be clearly marked. The bar must be straight. The rules of the deadlift apply. A metal rectangular bar of 2″ must be used. Time starts when the bar is loaded; the athletes have 60 seconds to complete the lift. No grip aids other than chalk are allowed. The bar must be gripped with the knuckles on both hands facing forward (away from the body) with a double overhand grip. The athlete must complete the lift with the knees locked, awaiting the referee’s down command before returning the bar to the platform while maintaining a grip on or in contact with the bar. Resting the bar on the thighs will disqualify the lift, as would failure to await the down command or dropping the bar.
