Jiri Orsag has done it! He won the U23 European Championships.
Snatch: 182kg, x186kg, 186kg for Bronze in the Snatch
Clean & Jerk: 230kg, x241kg, 241kg for Gold in the C&J and Total.
Here is his competition winning 241kg Clean & Jerk.
“This broke Ruslan Albegov’s (105kg+, Russia) 240kg U23 C&J record that was set at the 2011 President’s Cup.” (via Hook Grip)
Different Angle
186kg Snatch
Were looking at a future olympic medalist.
Would love to see it happen!
He’s certainly on a winning streak!
This guy is a monster. Great catch in the clean and that snatch seemed so fast.
JIRI ORZAG HAS THE BEST TECHNIQUE IN THE LOW SQUAT POSITION OF THE CLEAN THAT I HAVE SEEN IN A HEAVY WEIGHT IN A VERY LONG TIME. JUST LOOK AT THE HIGH ELBOWS, IT IS A CLASSIC BY THE BOOK TECHNIQUE. HE IS VERY FLEXIBLE FOR THE CLEAN. HIS SNATCH IS ANOTHER STORY, i THINK THAT HE COULD USE A SLIGHTLY WIDER GRIP (MAYBE ANOTHER 1 TO 1.5 INCHES ON EACH SIDE). HE HAS A LOT OF WORK TO DO IN THE SNATCH BUT HE WILL BE A C&j KING ONE DAY LIKE MATHIAS STEINER. HE WILL ALWAYS BE ONE OF THOSE GUYS THAT HAVE AROUND 55 KILOS DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HIS SNATCH AND C&J. HOPEFULLY HE WILL BE A SERIOUS MEDAL CONTENDER AT THE NEXT OLYMPICS IN 2016.
