Re: IPF Equipment Moratorium

In Response To: IPF Equipment Moratorium (Garry Holmen)

In addition to no new gear being approved, a clause has been added to the IPF approved list. It reads as follows:

"The user of this powerlifting equipment for himself and his heirs, release the IPF, its representatives, agents, and affiliates from any and all liability arising from the use of this equipment. Further, the user agrees to use this equipment as recommended. Failure to do so voids all responsibility and liability of the IPF, its agents, and affiliates, and the manufacturer of this equipment. Use of this equipment constitutes an agreement to these conditions."

It seeems from talking to people on the technical committee and the EC that the IPF has become increasingly concerned with "dumped" benches and blown shirts. The other shoe will drop in the near future.
