Idi Probak (Basque Ox-Pulling Trial)

Load the sledge with a fixed weight and attach the rope or harness to the front.

A team of two or more players takes hold of the rope in place of the traditional ox team.

On the signal, the team pulls together to drag the sledge as far as possible within the time limit.

Judges mark the distance the sledge travels before the team stops or time expires.

Add more weight to the sledge between rounds so teams compete against an increasing load.

The team that drags the heaviest load, or the greatest total distance, wins the trial.
