Some Facts

I am sorry that you feel the meet was not run well. I heard the opposite from at least a dozen other people there. Some of whom have lifted elsewhere.

Let's get some facts straight though.

First, that lifter was allowed to take that grip due to a medical problem and he came with documentation and was granted permission for one arm only.

Second, the refs at the meet are of good quality:
Eric Kupperstien - IPF Gold Medalist
Liane Blyn- IPF Gold Medalist
Tom Weeks-National Champion, NH State Chair
Disa Hatfield- National Champion
Howie Waldron- 25+ years as Ref
Joe Wencus- 20+ years as Ref
Jen Perry- IPF Competitor
Tara Cowan
Me

By the way I made two bad calls yesterday and one was over turned.
