Congratulations to Travis Willingham

ONLY THE 5th AMERICAN TO EVER HOIST THE DINNIE STONES



From Brad:

To give you guys an idea of exactly what he's done, he's became only the 4th American in history to lift the 730+ Dinnie Stones without straps. He's been pulling every week for the past 16 weeks on replica dinnie rigs, adding weight each week. Last week he went to 800lbs for several pulls with straps. His hands have been absolutely destroyed by this thing b/c the stones must be pulled with small iron rings, one of which is so small only 3 fingers can fit through it.

Yep, he called to say he pulled them without straps. He said the handles had been polished smooth and he was standing in pea gravel so there were some extra obstacles. He's the 4th American to do so and the 27th person in the world to pull without straps. Got his name on the list at the pub where the stones sit.



Congrats to one of 1-0-7's Finest!!!
