Massive squat! That speed out of the hole :-O

I know Eric Littlebridge was in the race to the 1000lb squat raw plus. Was this at the RUM meet?

wow, strong as an ox 460kilos amazing... so only knee wraps and belt does that = raw lifting? or is it still equipped?

Dan did the RUM meet got a new world record raw squat for the 220lb/100kg class (without wraps) of 783lb/355kg which is also more than the world record with wraps also got a new world record total.

Knee sleeves/nothing is RAW in the IPF federation, knee wraps are put in the se division as fully equipped. GPA and GPC, knee sleeves/nothing compete in the same division as knee wraps and they just call it raw. CAPO distinguishes knee wraps by calling it raw plus and knee sleeves/nothing just raw. Raw plus records are separate to raw records.

Bounce/power out of the hole are what knee wraps are about... The two above videos are perfect examples of the that. One with one without.

Malanichev also holds the singleply world record for the squat with 471kgs/1036lbs. That was a few years back. I hope he gives equipped lifting another go and has a shot at breaking that 500kg barrier. He could easily do it I reckon.

Dan Green is just kiddery. How many more world records is he goin to break?

[Wookie]

Malanichev never did get a ton out of suits due to his style. Probably 20kg or so, like I did.

I think he could get 500kg in wraps as long as he's not forced to go an inch lower.
