This week a whole mountain of equipment left our warehouse – more than 40 pallets, headed for the Jurassic Games in Porrentruy in the Jura. Kettlebells, barbells, plyo boxes, our biggest rig. All checked, sorted, loaded.
This is the part nobody sees on competition day. But without it, nothing runs. So let us show it to you.
Straight up: we are not the organiser. We supply the material and organise the transport – the setup on site is the event team’s job. Our part ends at the loading dock. But that part is exactly what decides whether everything is ready when the athletes show up.
What ships out for the Jurassic Games
A competition for up to 60 athletes needs more gear than most people think. Here is what went out:
- Goliath Rig – our biggest rig, built for up to 60 athletes at once
- Mini Goliath – the smaller rig for the warm-up
- Around 800 m² of event flooring – the surface they train and compete on
- Handstand push-up mats and HSPU walls
- Plyo boxes in various heights
- Kettlebells, dumbbells, barbells and plates – sorted cleanly by weight
- One big competition timer
Sounds like a lot? It is. More than 40 pallets, all checked and sorted before they head out – every piece in the right weight, ready to go.
Why a crane gets involved
The Goliath Rig is already loaded. You don’t lift a rig like that by hand – that’s what our industrial crane is for, rated up to 16 tonnes. The event flooring goes onto the pallets in parallel, by forklift.
How it works with us
The process has fixed steps – but it starts personally, not with an anonymous shopping cart:
- We advise you. Before anything ships, we work out what your event actually needs – how many athletes, which disciplines, what scale.
- Build the setup. From there we put together the right material – matched to the event, not off the shelf.
- Pick and check. Every piece is inspected and sorted. Nothing goes out uncounted.
- Organise transport. We make sure the material is on site in time.
- Hand over to the event team. From there, the organiser takes over the build.
And afterwards?
After the weekend, everything comes back to us. Then every pallet is checked again, restocked and prepped for the next job. Sounds unspectacular – but it’s the reason everything is ready again at the next event.
Planning your own event?
Whether it’s a competition, a throwdown or a setup for your gym – we know what it takes and put it together for you. You don’t have to buy the material: for a one-off event you can also rent the complete setup – transport included.
