In the Pro left hand 220 lb class, I finished 1–2 which put me in 7th place. It’s probably the toughest result my left arm has had in a while, but nonetheless I can say without a doubt that I left it all on the table and gave it everything I had. I could come up with a handful of excuses as to why the result wasn’t better, but at the end of the day I came under-prepared against a class full of high-caliber athletes, and all it means is that I have more work to do.

This event was a great test against a higher level of competition, and it was amazing getting the chance to grip up with a group of pullers I had never faced before. Looking back, I’m proud of the fight I gave—but now it’s time to get back to training and make sure the next time out ends with a better result.

Big thanks again to all the amazing reffs and competitors that showed up and gave their time as well as to @kflor007 and the @knuckles_up_armwrestling team for making this event happen! I can only hope that this is the first of many to come! taken in Greater Columbus Convention Center by @kflor007

In the Pro right hand 220lb class I ended up 3-2 putting me in 5th place which I’m happy about for two reasons. First reason being that it’s the first time my right hand has EVER placed higher than my left in a tournament and it also meant I achieved my goal of placing top 5 on at least one arm.

There’s a few things in the moment and after the fact looking back that I should have and could have done better but I am overall happy with the showing especially in such a stacked up class of athletes!

“They are the best people” “I truly felt like a celebrity” “They took care of everything” “I would go every single year if possible” “it’s my dream to be on a card there” “I am honored to have worked with them” “the support they give female armwrestlers is truly refreshing” every single one of these comments came from a DIFFERENT person talking to me about the one and only purple tsunami @the_high_five.aw by @kflor007 and @williamblazeski and we are getting a chance to talk about this coming year and all they have planned!!
