Referring to the global economic downturn, Odd Haugen told IronMind®, “It’s been a tough year and we have had to retool a bit.  Ulf [Bengtsson] and I, as the principals, are taking on a lot more direct responsibility for WSMSS.  It’s going to be big.”

Events for the WSMSS Bucharest contest are:

Apollon’s Axle (to the shoulder and then overhead; last man standing)
Husafell Stone (180 kg)
Power Medley (Fingal Finger, Giant Farmer’s Walk)
Super Yoke (410-kg/20 meters)
Crucifix Hold (Viking swords)
Atlas Stones (5 stones: 120 kg to 206 kg/60 seconds)

WSMSS has a new website, where you can find additional details about what is being billed as “the ultimate world strongman tour.”
