CrossFit Torsion - Summer Throwdown Team Competition 2021

Find a partner and come out for a fun day of testing your physical fitness under the August sun. The event will be held rain or shine on August 21st 2021.

Space is limited so get your tickets before they sell out!

Teams of two same sex athletes will compete in a series of events, shotgun style with a maximum duration of 51 minutes. Heats of 4 teams will run every hour on the hour. Full event and heat schedule will be released closer to the event date.

We're welcoming athletes of all levels following the 3 divisions established during the 2021 CrossFit Open. Teams should select the appropriate division for registration AFTER reviewing the movement standards list below. This list is not exhaustive but will include most movements and weights to be used.

To keep things fun and fair for everyone, please register for the division that most closely matches your capabilities. e.g. if you can do all the listed RX movements and weights except double unders DO NOT register for Scaled and go for the win. That's not fair nor fun for the rest of the competitors in that division. If only one person must complete a particular movement we've noted it below.

Heat Assignments & Live Scoring

Workout videos and standards have been posted to the Facebook Event page, but if you don't have facebook you can see the workout details here.

Q: Do I need to check-in by time XXX if I don't go until time YYY?  

Ideally all scaled athletes should be checked-in by 7:00am, all Foundations athletes should be checked-in by 12:45pm and all RX athletes should be checked-in by 2:15pm so that they can participate in the athlete briefings. These meetings are to make sure that everyone understands the standards so that there are no questions during the WODs.  We *highly* encourage you to be present for these meetings to minimize your chance of getting no-reps during the actual competition.  However if it's simply not possible for you to be here at those times you will still be allowed to compete as long as you are present before your heat starts.
