This year, Snatch Only is replaced by Snatch Exhibition. Unless you are performing standard Snatch as part of Biathlon, you must perform Snatch as one of the following:
- No Switch Snatch
- No weight divisions
- 10 minutes
- all reps performed on one arm
- scored: absolute record per bell and gender class
- LIFE-LINE Snatch (changed from Absolute Multi-switch)
- Two weight divisions per gender class:
- Men (<80kg) & (80.1+)
- Women (<65kg) & (65.1+)
- 10 minutes
- Traditional snatch with the option of a second hand switch
- scored:
- absolute record per bell and wt. division
- a second hand switch bumps you out of the single hand-switch lifter pool and thus pushes you to the bottom of the leader board where you are measured against all double hand-switch lifters
- absolute record per bell and wt. division
- Two weight divisions per gender class:

Lifter Raffle & Medals
Medals
Medals will be awarded to the top 3 lifters per bell weight (e.g. 12kg), in each weight division (e.g. Up to 65 kg) per gender class.
Raffle
All athletes are entered into a raffle for special prizes:
- 1 ticket per Early Bird registrant
- 1 ticket per registered event (up to 2) for lifters registering after Aug.6, 11:59pm PST
- Earn 1 bonus ticket for any of the following:
- RETURNING LIFTERS: lifting one bell category heavier than your last Grip Strength performance (2017) in that specific event, for any event (must complete previous volume plus 10%)
- E.g. previous TALC: 12's x 81 reps = 1,944 kg total volume; must lift: 1,944kg + 10% (2,138.4kg) = 16's x 67 reps
- RETURNING LIFTERS: beating your previous Grip Strength performance (2017) in reps by at least 10% in that specific event, for any event
- E.g. previous best was 60 reps TALC; you must complete 66 reps
- NEW LIFTERS: completing CKA Rank numbers, PLUS 10%, for your specific weight category in each event
- E.g. Rank for TALC is 60 reps, you must complete 66 reps
- RETURNING LIFTERS: lifting one bell category heavier than your last Grip Strength performance (2017) in that specific event, for any event (must complete previous volume plus 10%)
Note: rep requirements are rounded up from any fraction above the previous whole integer
i.e. 1,992kg + 10% = 2,191.2kg / 2x16kg bells = 68.475 = 69 reps
i.e. 1,992kg + 10% = 2,191.2kg / 2x16kg bells = 68.475 = 69 reps
