CrossFit

Find out which athletes cashed in on the $56,000 in cash prizes and $45,000 worth of Rogue equipment. 

 

The 2015 CrossFit Liftoff, powered by Rogue, ended just over a week ago. The four-day online competition tested each athlete’s 1-rep-max snatch, 1-rep-max clean and jerk, and GPP with a 12-minute AMRAP of snatches, clean and jerks, chest-to-bar pull-ups, and double-unders.

There were many ways to win cash and Rogue equipment:

  • Do the best across all three events. 
  • Do the best across the two weightlifting events. 
  • Lift the most relative to your body weight. 
  • Snatch the most weight.
  • Clean and jerk the most weight. 

The 98 prize-winning positions are now officially locked down.

Caine Wilkes and Sarah Robles of Team USA snatched and clean and jerked their way into $18,000 in prize money, each winning the snatch ($3,000), clean and jerk ($3,000), and weightlifting total ($3,000).

Four-time CrossFit Games champion Rich Froning Jr. and 2013 Games champ Samantha Briggs won the largest cash and Rogue equipment packages for their performances across the three events.
