The next stop of the MHP Strongman Champions League will be in Vladivostok, Russia—which is a 9-1/2 hour flight from Moscow, on the sea of Japan.
“It is a very busy schedule at the moment for our league, organization and athletes,” Marcel Mostert told IronMind and SCL has been rolling from one contest to another on consecutive weekends across Europe—delivering TV shows and adding sponsors along the way.
“he 11th stage in Russia will be followed up this month by Poland and Gibraltar.
We’re back for the second time in Vladivostok, together with some big champions and the best strongman in the world, Zydrunas Savickas.
Misha Koklyaev will be the MC there, because he has ripped his triceps last month. He was originally on the list to compete of course.
But together with Zydrunas, we also have ‘Thor’ from Iceland, Mike Burke from the USA, Ervin Katona and the SCL leader Krzysztof Radzikowski, from Poland.
The events will be:
- Weight for Height
- Yoke Race

- Forward Hold
- Dumbbell Press
And here is the list of athletes:
- Zydrunas Savickas (Lithuania)
