George was telling me a couple of months ago that he lost for years and years and paid attention to what he was doing wrong, and then developed this "thing"... He was working under an injury at this time...he spends time now, training "around his injury." we used to play hockey together in our teens, then I became a musician. He comes out to a few of my gigs, always a gentleman and a good guy.
wow dall antonia made it look easy. georges style is for sure strange. but i guess his 'lock' doesn't come from his hard training. he pulls always in the same position and holds it like there is no tension in his arm and it's just hold by his bones. well never mind, i can't judge this. nevertheless it's always entertaining to watch crazy G! haha xD
George's pulling style does not upset me for 2 reasons - he trained for 40 years to develop a lock like that (he wasn't just born with it or anything). A lot of armwrestlers retire in their 40's and I don't know of anybody besides George who has been pulling for over 40 years. And he is beatable, even if he doesn't get flashed, so it really isn't cheap. It's cheap if it's a disability that makes him unbeatable - something that came from 40 years of hard work, and is still beatable, isn't cheap.
George has their merits and charisma also...but he has a very bad attitude when it loses!
