RAS Royal Easter Show woodchopping

Woodchopping is handicapped. The ace man closest to the camera hasn’t started yet. The guy farthest away started about 30 seconds earlier.

Yikes! They have to chop what they're standing on?

[Kathy]

I couldn't figure out what they were doing until I read your comment. An interesting event. Which one won?

[Roger Waterhouse]

Very cool!

[Corinne C]

Must have balance!

[Rick]

Great shot. That just looks so scary when they start chopping between the feet.

[Babs]

Wow they must be fit. If I tried this I reckon I would chop my legs off.

Thanks. The judges count their toes at the end. There is no way I would swinging a razor sharp axe near my foot!!!

@randystreat
The number 5 ace man won I thing. Number 6 was last. And the guy nearest the camera came around 3rd even after giving the rest of them a start.

[Kat]

Great capture

[Joan Robillard]

@kvphoto
Some of these guys look so unfit and obese but they can keep this up for quite a while. A lot longer than me!!!
