The back story….a long long time ago of 2020 in a land far far away of Khenna there was a forgotten AO called “The View”! To bring excitement during the time of dome and gloom Mambi came up with the idea of pitting one Q vs another in a face off of who could bring the “best” beatdown with 2 Qs going head to head then have the Pax vote a champion. Unfortunately as life goes AOs thinned and “The View” became extinct! (It’s no longer on the AO list) Fast forward to the end of 2023, Disclaimer was moving into the neighborhood where the lore of this AO and the Q vs Q was stuck in his mind hearing about the tails of his brother pax bringing a competitive beatdown just a few minutes from his backyard. So the call to the last champ and challenger was made and the ReNew Q vs Q was scheduled.
The date January 19th 5:30AM it was a wet cool 50deg with 18 pax meeting up at the flags planted in Erlanger park. YHC gave the back story and guidelines of the Q Vs Q beatdown. After a quick disclaimer (not actually) a quick warmup:
SSH
Grassgrabers
HillBillies
Mnt Man Poopers
Merkins
Each Q gets 2 alternating 8 minute rounds with 2 minute transition.
Rnd 1
Champ King Kong
Base of the levee for 4 rounds of various in cadence exercise then mosey to top of levee for in cadence ssh.
Rnd 2
Tripleshift
Partner Up for crazy 8
One pax did exercise while partner carried block overhead out and back then flip flop
Rnd 3
King Kong
HITT – pax perform exercise for 1 minute followed by active recovery for 1 minute
Rnd 4
Tripleshift
Some sort of bearburpeebroadjump combo goal was to reach 40. You had to be there to understand
Time Up
COT
After brief announcements the 2 Qs were brought into the circle – with a convincing unanimous vote…..oh wait Rudy decided to decent and change his vote to KK. Tripleshift was crowned the new champ. After our prayer of thanksgiving the 2 competing Qs met in the circle for the belt exchange and call out by Tripleshift of his desired challenger…..from the LVCC gang the notorious HighRise was challenged!
A new twist to Q vs Q decided at coffeeteria – the champ gets to designate the AO of the beatdown brawl, which could be ANY so be on the lookout. If HighRise accepts the challenge Tripleshift has hinted it may be at MistyMountain.
