The 2015 CrossFit Games 'Pig Flip' Event

About

The 2015 CrossFit Games 'Pig Flip' event was an unforgettable obstacle course challenge. It featured a massive, rectangular object known as the "Pig," weighing 560 pounds for men and 395 pounds for women. Athletes were required to flip this heavy object 100 feet across the field as part of the "Soccer Chipper" event. The Pig's substantial size and weight made it a formidable obstacle, demanding both strength and technique to maneuver effectively. The event tested athletes' endurance and skill as they navigated the Pig flip alongside other challenges, including legless rope climbs and a 100-foot handstand walk. The combination of these physically demanding tasks made the event particularly grueling, highlighting the athletes' ability to manage diverse movements under pressure. The event was part of a broader competition that showcased a range of CrossFit skills, emphasizing the versatility and resilience required to succeed in the sport.
