The longest match I've ever seen was Pascal Girard vs Yivgeny Prudnyk at 2009 EAC. It's less than 10 minutes long but seems like taking forever. I can't find the video now... tiberiu.....so you say this is a ten min match....yet the video is only 8:52 sec long...it took them 30 sec for the first set up slip then 20 for the 2nd slip....took a break at 1:40....in reality this was ''only a 6 min match...40% less then what you say it was....my point is people think matches are longer then they really are....i seen dave owens sr pull 6 min and 30sec match NO BREAKS they said go and then 6min 30 sec later dave won.... He said LESS THAN 10 min... |

As well as the match with Steve and I Earl had a 34 minute match with someone, but it has been so long I don't remember. Earl won all 3 matches if I remember right. One of the most talented pullers I have ever known. He had some personal problems ( as did I) that kept him from becoming the superstar he should have been.

You're welcome! ;D tom Nelson As Dustin Morgan highlighted, I said it was under 10 minutes. I believe this might be the longest match in EAC history. I haven't seen anything longer on film and wouldn't want to either. It's damn boring! Any match longer than 1 min is just boring. I really enjoy flashes. ;D |

Yes I was there when Earl and steve had that match in and of a strap single elimination. Steve went on to win at petaluma as I recall.I didn't know how anyone could come back after that.

Hello Aw.s,  As well as the match with Steve and I Earl had a 34 minute match with someone, but it has been so long I don't remember. Earl won all 3 matches if I remember right. 34 minute match.... :oWoW  .... john Parton: seat down or stand up match?? either way its just jaw-dropping. I was very fortunate in 2007 to catch this breathtaking match (below) from a pretty good perspective between multiple German champion Andre Riske and the Swedish "legend" Andreas Rundström.it was during the yearly Over the Top international Championship in wolfsburg/germany. So i had that idea to made a small armwrestling-film from those shots and the rest of the competition and send it as an armwrestling Christmas present to everyone who wants one for free over here...man i tell you this ;D..alot of fans and athlete took one of it and appreciate it and i was really glad to make them happy.  Here it is...its not the longest but it is really a fantastic match that we will never forget...Big kudos to both athlets...i hope you guys like it too even so the video-quality is not very good...enjoy it. side-note: this match was the "game changer" in that weight class ..At that day we had Andre Riske . Andreas Rundström and Dieter Spannagel as the 3 dominant favorites (they were pretty close level-wise to each other those days) of the class and some good so called "underdogs", but after this match Dieter Spannagel won the class pretty easy like he is just closing a window ;D. cyl.

I'm sorry I missed the question mine was a stand up match. I wasn't there for the 34 minute match, but the long match with Steve Lusby was stand up (wristwrestling no peg) as well. Earl lost the finals of the tourney we were in to Clyde Young as we were both done. Earl was one of my training partners by the way.
