This comp saw the return of two old schoolboy lifters, John Walz and Steve

John Walz did 110, 145 for a 300 Sinclair total
and Steve 70, 90 both for 6 out of 6

John Pakchung showed some solid form in his first comp doing 60,70

Lad did  150 snatch and 170 Clean and Jerk and just missed a QLD record total in the Clean and Jerk , missing 177 Jerk forwards – he needs to get his leg strength up

James and Kory did new PB’s in both lifts and Kory showed excellent technique yet again.

We are really struggling to get helpers for these comps – everybody needs to help out in a least one session – remember somebody else ref’d and loaded for you. Also any parents that would like to learn refereeing please contact me – The QWA runs free workshops.

 Zack few back to Canada this weekend to do a Master’s Degree and it’s sad to see him go – Thanks for the Crossfit hoodie mate

Help with Lift to gym
One of the TID lifters who lives in Browns Plains needs a lift to the gym,
they will help with the petrol cost -- Can anyboy help ?

Competition
I would firstly like to thank all the people that came down and helped during the day
Damo and Zack -- were particular standouts and helped all day.

Now regarding the lifting  -
Lad’s 155  snatch was an awesome lift and Luke’s  technique was much improved.
Ben was burnt out from the last few weeks of PB’s  but still managed a 
very good 130 165 and had a good crack at the Qld record in the snatches.
Josh Wu also lifted very well and lots of the other lifters got good 6/6 attempts

Also it was good to see the TID lifters on the platform for the first time
