Leaving here just as a “show”. This was a rack and ground set monolift that Rick Davis built and I bought in the Covidian era. He started with his bench upright setup with taller arms, a jack for each arm, and surrounded it all inside a 4 post frame. As a rack it was useful on outside. The inside arms were a fuzz too high to bench out of, and the bar coming across the front made squatting out of it similar to using mono hooks in a rack with a base plate. It was a useful rack, but we moved on from it and cut the next guy a nice deal just like Rick gave me. Not sure how many Rick built as he told me this was more of a prototype, but maybe helps inspire the next. It was a rack based mono long before Rogue released their version.

A Titan frame, Titan rubber insert panels, and a wood insert that was coated. My “do over” items - I needed a grippier poly on the insert. What I poured was probably closer to a bar top than a basketball court and that made it suck sumo until it was roughed up. As per review on Titan frame - it’s a solid base point, but Loctite EVERYTHING or it’ll keep loosening on you. Gym logo under the poly for added impact.

I bought this before they had the rackable version. It’s a fun log that can allow you to get a quick understanding of the implement and event, work your form, and train. I don’t compete in strongman so as a “screw around” implement it’s perfect and it’s helped others train for their event which is a win to me. Does all I need it to do, but I recognize a competitor or strongman gym likely needs a better piece.

I’ve had winners, and I’ve had losers one these. Some are great. Some are tight. Some have broke. Some are still going strong. They are cheap, and good for most workouts. I will say that nearly all of this style, whether this brand or the 97 others, don’t tend to keep your weight pinned on if dropped or a significant amount. They will prevent weight from falling off, but if you consistently drop, you’ll be consistently tightening.

Mine is currently just storing bumpers so it isn’t exactly working hard, but we’ve had it loaded down prior and everything still moved fine. Does has a little sway in it which would not give me confidence to way overload, but 0 real issues from me on it

I have a boneyard Westside bar and it has absolutely 0 issues. We have it on loan to another gym currently as we have a “prime” version we’ll, but literally no differences seen that led us to clearly seeing why it was a boneyard bar.

I was handling a lifter and this heap was in warm up room. Titan had a chance to change the combo rack game with this budget piece and they completely whiffed. This thing moved like a baby giraffe. My bias: if you see it for sale, don’t be tempted. If you see it on your platform, pray.

When you are ready or wanting to step way up beyond a Slingshot, this band will be here waiting. Way stronger for those overload sets, or the gateway to unlimited benching!
