Flintstone Barbell

The format for this event was in rounds. Each athlete attempted the opening weight of 175 kilograms (385 pounds). Those who locked out the weight successfully advanced to the next round until a winner was crowned. The weight increments increased to the following weights in order: 190 kilograms (420 pounds), 200 kilograms (440 pounds), 212 kilograms (470 pounds), 221 kilograms (490 pounds), and 230 kilograms (510 pounds).

Unanticipated seventh and eighth rounds were added to the event. The former was 240 kilograms (529 pounds), and the latter was 246 kilograms (542 pounds).

  1. Oleksii Novikov — Eight rounds — World Record | 246 kilograms (542 pounds)
  2. Tom Stoltman — Seven rounds
  3. Martins Licis — Six rounds
  4. Trey Mitchell — Four rounds (T-fourth)
  5. Brian Shaw — Four rounds (T-fourth)
  6. Maxime Boudreault — Four rounds (T-fourth)
  7. Luke Stoltman — Four rounds (T-fourth)
  8. Mitchell Hooper — Three rounds
  9. Eythor Ingolfsson Melsted — Two rounds (T-ninth)
  10. Gabriel Rhéaume — Two rounds (T-ninth)

Novikov utilized a split-jerk technique that outlasted the field and shattered the previous Flintstone Barbell world record of 463 pounds held by Gary Taylor for 27 years by 79 pounds.

2022 WSM Day Three Results

The final day of the Qualifying Stage is a wrap. It’s been an interesting one, folks. ICYMI, here are the notable storylines:

  • Mark Felix set a new world record in the Wrecking Ball Hold with an incredible time of 2:20.49.
  • Gabriel Rhéaume made it to the Final through the Stone-Off with the initiative (he lifted first).
  • After the Stone-Off, five more men became Finalists. They are: Gabriel Rhéaume, Brian Shaw, Trey Mitchell, Maxime Boudreault, and Eythor Ingolfsson Melsted.

Stone-Off Results

Two athletes — the second- and third-place finishers in each group — needed to hoist six stones, with the last stone being an AMRAP (as many reps as possible). The six stones, in order, weighed: 150 kilograms, 160 kilograms, 160 kilograms, 180 kilograms, 180 kilograms, and 200 kilograms.

Whoever finishes each Group in second place has an advantage in that they lift the stone second. That means if the first athlete fails to lift the stone, they’re automatically eliminated. This advantage is especially important during the AMRAP; even if both men hoist the stone the same number of times, the athlete with the initiative still loses if he fails to lift.

Here are the match-ups, with those who have the advantage listed first. Winners are bolded

  • Group 1: Kevin Faires vs. Gabriel Rhéaume 
  • Group 2: Bobby Thompson vs. Brian Shaw
  • Group 3: Trey Mitchell vs. Adam Bishop
  • Group 4: Maxime Boudreault vs. Pavlo Kordiyaka
  • Group 5:  Eythor Ingolfsson Melsted vs. Jean-Stephen Coraboeuf

Wrecking Ball Hold Results

Each strongman must hold 228 kilograms (500 pounds) for as long as possible. The question of whether or not the strongman who clinched groups would make legitimate attempts or ceremonial ones to secure the requisite points lingered in the crowd. The temperature at the start of the event was in the mid-60s (Fahrenheit).

2022 WSM Day Two Results

Day Two has wrapped. All five Group leaders have mathematically locked their spots in the Final, though it is not yet official. Tom Stoltman, Mitchell Hooper, Martins Licis, Oleksii Novikov, and Luke Stoltman need only to make an attempt in the Wrecking Ball Hold event on Day Three, and they will win their respective groups.

One point is awarded for an attempt, meaning all five men can hold the wrecking ball for one second and still qualify for the Finals. Licis, however, will be awarded two points for an attempt since Shane Flowers has withdrawn. 

Log Lift Results

Each athlete attempted to lift 145 kilograms (320 pounds) for as many reps as possible in 75 seconds. Only Maxime Boudreault and Luke Stoltman managed double digits on the log.

Group 1

  1. Tom Stoltman — Eight reps
  2. Kevin Faires — Seven reps
  3. Gabriel Rhéaume — Six reps
  4. Aivars Šmaukstelis — Four reps
  5. Andy Black — Zero reps
  6. Manuel Angulo — Zero reps

Stoltman made won his third consecutive event, mathematically securing his place in the Final to defend the WSM title.

Group 2

  1. Bobby Thompson — Eight reps
  2. Mitchell Hooper — Seven reps
  3. Brian Shaw — Seven reps (T-second)
  4. Konstantine Janashia — Five reps
  5. Gabriel Peña — One rep
  6. Mark Felix — Zero reps

Thompson displayed why the Log Lift is his signature event, but the limelight remained on Hooper, who shared second-place points with Shaw. Hooper entered the competition as a dark horse but has emerged as the mathematically-locked winner of Group 2 with an event to spare.

Group 3

  1. Oleksii Novikov — Nine reps
  2. Trey Mitchell — Nine reps (T-first)
  3. Adam Bishop — Seven reps
  4. Rob Kearney — Six reps
  5. Grzegorz Szymanski — Three reps
  6. Mika Törrö — Two reps

Novikov is using the 2022 WSM to make up for his missed Final in 2021. He’s earned enough points to secure the Group win with the Wrecking Ball Hold still to come.

Group 4

  1. Maxime Boudreault — 10 reps
  2. Pavlo Kordiyaka — Nine reps
  3. Martins Licis — Nine reps (T-second)
  4. Gavin Bilton — Seven reps
  5. Nedžmin Ambešković — Two reps
  6. Shane Flowers — withdrew

Boudreault put on arguably the most impressive performance of in the Log Lift event. He power cleaned nearly half his reps. It shot him back into contention for a spot in the Stone-Off. It would be a shock if Licis does not ultimately win this group.

Group 5

  1. Luke Stoltman — 10 reps
  2. Eythor Ingolfsson Melsted — Eight reps
  3. Jean-Stephen Coraboeuf — Seven reps
  4. Kim Ujarak — Six reps
  5. Kelvin De Ruiter — One rep
  6. Evan Singleton — One rep (T-fifth) 

Luke Stoltman’s performance in the Log Lift was any other day at the office. Another event win under his belt secures his place in the Final with the Wrecking Ball Event still to come.

Car Walk Results

Notably, Rob Kearney and Hooper logged the second and third fastest times, respectively, finishing just 1/110th of a second apart (11.63 vs. 11.64).

2022 WSM Day One Results

Athletes and fans can expect a high of 101 degrees Fahrenheit in Sacramento — a little intense for a day full of deadlifts and a loading medley. 

So far, the big stories are Canada’s Mitchell Hooper — a relatively late replacement — winning the Loading Race in Group 2 with the fourth fastest time overall. The 26-year-old beat out Brian Shaw and Bobby Thompson. 

Also, Evan Singleton was forced to withdraw after an undisclosed injury. It’s not clear when he sustained the injury. Hollands announced the news on the WSM Backstage Live! show.
