Sandbag Blob records now have a standard. 📋
We’ve been tagged in some serious pulls and we want every one of them on the board. But a record only counts if the next person can chase it under the exact same conditions, and a lot of what’s coming in isn’t being lifted the same way twice.
So here it is. Community lifts, sanctioned lifts, garage PRs, same six rules for everybody.
THE STANDARD
1. THUMB AND FOUR FINGERS ON OPPOSING FACES
Thumb on one face, four fingers on the other. No index finger creeping around the side. No side pickups. This is a pinch. We’re testing finger strength, not hand size.
2. PALM ON THE FLAP
The majority of your palm has to be in contact with the sand enclosure flap. Fingertips alone doesn’t count.
3. LOAD ATTACHED AT THE STEEL LOOP
All weight hangs from the steel loop on the bottom of the bag. Nothing wrapped, rigged, or clipped anywhere else.
4. THE WEIGHT LEAVES THE GROUND
The load has to come fully off the floor. Not shifted, not tilted, not half unweighted. Off. If it never left the ground it isn’t a lift.
5. ON CAMERA, ALL OF IT
Two things the camera has to catch: the weight being measured, and daylight under the load when you pick it up. Same clip, nothing cut. If we can’t see it leave the ground, it isn’t a record.
6. KNOW YOUR BAG
The current bag is 3” thick and 5.5” in diameter. Earlier versions ran thicker and slightly bigger, so if you’re pulling on an older one, tell us and we’ll note it. We’d rather compare apples to apples than quietly rewrite the board.
None of this is us being precious about it. It’s the opposite. Hit the standard and your number stands up next to anybody’s, anywhere in the world.
Already sent one in that misses a rule? Re-film it. We want you on the board. 💪
Tag us and use so we can build this thing properly.
