BS rules-, every sport known to man has some type of rule attached to it. Make up a set of rules that EVERYONE will abide by- submit them, print them out..
Intentional slip because they are better in the strap. That INTENTIONAL slip better be caught by the referees

Intentional is a tough thing to prove, what other sport has any rule using intentional as a quantifier?
Intentional grounding in the NFL, though there is no discussion about the QB's intention there are very specific guidelines to what illicit this call.
Now I know we have a WAF definition of an intentional slip but hell I can tell you beyond a shadow of a doubt pullers at every event are intentionally slipping, the only question is did they engage in an action covered in the intentional slip rule? If not they intentionally slipped and they got away with it.

Intentional low blow, head butt, hitting behind the head. All boxing. Intentional walk, intentionally hitting the batter. Baseball. Intentional foul, NBA and collage ball. I'm sure there are many more, I just don't want to rack my brain trying to think of all them. The sport is what it is and unfortunately it will never be a main stream sport. Pete if you want to throw a tournament that starts in the straps then do it. It appears you would get the competitors to try it. I love the straps. However, I think the rules should for the most part stay the way they are. Otherwise I have to agree with the baby face kid from South Carolina. Learn how to pull both with and with out the straps because that is what makes it a great sport for us the pullers. JMO

I voted yes since I can beat more people in the straps than out. Of course if I run into some one who is good in the straps I would like to have the option to bail.
What I really want to see is the Hateress and Todd go at it in the straps. Off course no shirts with misleading information on them will be allowed.

Perhaps one can talk Allen Hester in to using the strap idea. He will be using just the word " GO " at his 07 show. No " ready "
That would be interesting.
oh-oh now I did it.

JMO Too funny Mark, first of all you cannot count boxing I grew up in the sport and the only thing that makes professional boxing look legitimate is professional wrestling. Intentional as it applies to armwrestling is to make a call claiming to know the athlete did it intentionally, an intentional foul in basketball is obvious you are not guessing intention when you close line a guy or you grab a guy that is clearly intentional, there is no intentionally hitting the batter rule that effects the game, the pitcher can get tossed if the ump thinks he did it on purpose but the guy still only gets one base just like it was done unintentionally. This one is close though. The point is not about making changes to address weaknesses in any puller in my opinion the change is about addressing a weakness in the sport, the sport has too many rules too many subjective rules, and too much game playing, I think the strap start can help improve that. I guess we will see how such an event actually goes.

Hey Jason, I would like the opportunity to pull Todd in a best of five, all in the straps. Would he do it and when is the real question here.

by the way,same Swiss guy tried to slip apart from the hands of RJ Molinaire only a match after our match but he was not able to make this happen because RJ's grip was stronger than mine and RJ just tricepped him down while he was trying to get out of RJ's hand. I know I watch it regularly but I disagree with the reason, RJ's hit is more a sidepressure roll which gives the guy less room to slip under than your hit which is more back to the corner, this along with the velocity of your hit made it easier for him to get loose. RJ's hit was more deliberate and to the side, this caused the Swiss guy to have to go through more hand on RJ (because he was slipping under) and he could not get away before RJ latched on and pressed him. That is the way I see it when I watch the DVD. RJ does not apply side pressure that is what i know for sure.his way to use pressure is an outer rotator pressure.he toprolls the guys' hand while i like to hit side way as long as my elbow lets me. also i know what my hand is well and i can not open the plastic caps of sodas time to time while RJ hunts Crocodiles .i have very weak squeezing power in my hand.Rj did not beat the guy with the side pressure,RJ squeezed the guy and pressed him down.that is why i did not use any pressure against RJ'S fingers. Russian applied enough pressure and was able to slip apart from RJ' s hand.

I want to see a leather strap steel cage match with a bunch of folding chairs in the center of the ring.

Simon, Don't insult the sport of boxing by comparing it to Pro Wrestling. If you have ever fought in the ring or even spared for that matter you wouldn't compare the sport to the staged event. The point is the calls that are made are subject to the referee's interpretation of the foul being intentional or not. All sports that have referee's are subjected to that. As are most sports filled with people who look for ways to bend the rules in order to win. Like it or not that will never change. I do agree with you on several points the main one being it would be great if everyone would just grip up and pull!!!
