Hello Athletes!
First off thank you for joining in on the fun. for your info the $5.00 paid is only to cover the cost of www.CompetitionCorner.net and to buy food for the judges at the end of the open who have volunteered their time to review the selected Rx Videos.
Currently we have 130 athletes registered total for this years adapted version of the open. This is our 3rd year running the Open, but our first year adding in Standing Divisions.
For you new to this platform a little background:
WheelWOD was formally established in 2014 and has been operating with Free daily programming, seminars and online coaching plus instructional videos for seated adaptive athlete through the www.wheelwod.com
platform.
WheelWOD has had great success in making this transition of adding Standing athletes and thrived this year by doing all the programming and running of the 40 adaptive athletes for The Wodapalooza 2017. We have also handled 2 separate programming of the Rush Club 1 on 1 adaptive challenges and will be doing more in the future as well as I ( Chris Stoutenburg) have already signed on as Director of athletes in the Wodapalooza 2018.
This year we have teamed up with crossroads Adaptive alliance to help program the standing divisions to make sure we are getting input from all divisions on standard and weights. Thank you to crossroads coaches and staff for being part of this and helping grow the movement since day 1.
OPEN GUIDE LINES
Any Rx Athlete wishing to confirm a top 10 place in their division must record every work out as we will be randomly selecting 2 of the 5 workouts to review and confirm. Video Submission guidelines are available on wheelwod.com as well as mentioned in the workout movement standard releases. Scaled athletes do not need to record. All athletes must be judged and verified by that judge via email through competitoncorner.net
All scores will be submitted in competitioncorner.net platform and leader board will be updated in real time, but it does some times take time to catch up if multiple athletes are submitting at once. so be warned of deadlines and if you are waiting to the last minute to submit you risk the chance of missing the time line. if you miss the submission deadline you will not be able to submit a score for that workout but can still continue to submit the following weeks.
Each week an adapted version of the CrossFit games workout will be released the next day ( Friday ) at 5pm EST. See below for submission and release dates. We will also be doing live announcements via FB live through the Crossroads FB Page. Each week will come from a different gym and part of North America. ( yes that includes Canada 🙂

Please understand that all the workout standards must be read and understood by your judge as well as video standards must be met.
Formal written email request with substantial evidence is the only way we will review an athletes workout outside of the WheelWOD guidelines. if you are contesting a score of another athletes workout, this is the only method we will consider.
Be Honest and Play Nice!

Hope everyone has been training hard.. If you know me, I dont believe in scaling down. I will look for a functional movement that has the same stimulus as the open workout but it will not always be a “mimic” of the able bodied movement if it doesn’t functional work to increase and test your fitness. Expect the Unexpected (GPP)
Lets have a great Season show the world what we do.
