Thought I was going to be able to pound this one out with very little problem. It's a lot tougher than it looks if you do it by strict standards. Cleans were not remotely a problem. The HSPUs if judged/done strictly are a bitch!!!
You have to plantar flex your feet to get your heels past the mark you set. Definitely going to redo, may do it scaled though.

I went in today expecting to do 15.4, ended up doing Fight Gone Bad. It was brutal but awesome.

I judged 2 people today.
The girl I judged let her feet go wide at the top and was getting reps in the first round, but struggled in the 2nd until a watcher told he to keep her feet together. A few times her toes were above the line and she plantar flexed at the end to get her heels above the required height for reps.
Most were kipping.
The key is not power cleaning everything without a small squat to lessen the effort and not going to failure at any point in HSPUs, unless you're down to 1 rep at a time toward the end.
I'll be dropping into a 1/4 squat on the cleans and breaking all HSPUs into 3 reps at a time from the start.

15.4 in the books..
My lack of working out due to travel killed me on the cleans. I was rolling thru HSPUs, where most everyone else struggles.
A mere 26..
15.5 should be some long assed chipper.

15.5 looks simple but will suck
For time:
27-21-15-9
Calorie row
Thrusters 95/65 (65/45 scaled)
Briggs did it in 7 min
Thorisdottir in about 7:30
CLB in 7:50ish
The rows benefit the taller competitors but the thrusters benefit the shorter competitors.
