Harri Jasotze (Basque Stone Lifting)

Set out stones of an agreed weight category for the competition.

Each competitor approaches the stone and lifts it cleanly off the ground using proper form, without dropping or dragging it.

A successful lift usually requires raising the stone fully onto a shoulder or platform before setting it back down under control.

Competitors take turns attempting either the most repetitions within a time limit, or lifts with progressively heavier stones.

Judges or observers confirm whether each lift meets the agreed technique standard to count.

The competitor with the most successful lifts, or who lifts the heaviest stone cleanly, wins.
