How to split it

  • Swap when grip starts to fail, not after it has gone.
  • Usually the fastest station, so keep switches quick and bells upright.

At Mixed loads the woman carries the men's open bells, so plan more of the carry for the stronger partner.

At Pro loads the bells are heavier, so plan more, shorter turns.

Principles only. HyDoubles sets the exact blocks from both partners' benchmarks.

Season 2026/27, in our own words. The official rulebook always decides.
