Underhand Chop

The Lumberjacks take their 6 ½ lbs. razor sharp New Zealand Speed Axe, stand on top of a horizontal log, swinging the axe between their feet, just missing their toes by a fraction of an inch. Speed, strength, and accuracy make up this event. Need I say more!

Spring Board Chopping

This is the most dangerous of all Chopping events. For this event, the Lumberjack starts out by cutting a notch or pocket in the side of the 12-foot high tree. After the pocket is cut, the Lumberjack inserts his 8-inch-wide Springboard into the notch. He proceeds to climb onto the Springboard and cuts his second notch in the side of the tree. Places his second Springboard into this notch and climbs up. Balancing on the second board, he begins to chop through the log while standing over six feet high up the in air, and springing up and down, with each powerful stroke of the axe, striking the side of the log. After he chops almost ¾ of the way through the first side, he will then switch to the opposite side. He continues chop until he cuts through the log and falling the top of the tree to the ground.
