Flipping logs is pretty cool, it is different from a tire because once you clean it you still have to press it and walk it over. Adds a new element to the movement. Oh, and I'm guessing you would be...

That gym is damn sexy! Those tires are amazing! Biggest tire I've flipped was an 800lber for 5 flips I think. I doubt I could flip a 1200lb tire, but I would stay out of the way of anyone that could!...
