judge miscounted carleen matthews deadlifts the last round, she actually did 7 but the judge made her do 8. great judging once again but all the regions...
+Valentin Wipff - No, I have never judged a competition. However, I am in a profession where the lives of others, as well as my own depend on my ability to keep calm, and make life altering decisions under pressure. All that being said, I have never forgotten how to count to 8...there is no excuse for that. Pressure from everyone to make the right call, judging a specific standard, counting reps, etc....all things these judges need to be expected to do, especially at this level. Lastly, how can people be considered and certified as judges if they can't even perform all the movements seen in crossfit?
actually.... if you watch her last reps the judge doesn't give the signal or call a no rep, he just plainly miscounts and makes her do 7 reps. watch the video again mikosz....

+Jeff Ellingsen You are right - luckily it didn't cost her any points

+Jeff Ellingsen you don't know whether he miscounted or no-repped her.
