It really is.
Yeah.
It's not just GB has shooters.
GB has an infrastructure.
I would love to get Matt's perspective.
He's the only one in the room who's worked as a head coach for multiple different nations.
It was great.
You know, we were talking before we started recording about how I felt like this world was one of the best.
And I think I sometimes think of the development of the sport and you think of it from the perspective of the commentator, the battles and the hype and all that.
And I think...
Obviously, that is probably more exciting for a watcher.
But I think when I get in my head of kind of the long arc and the numbers, this was the, I think...
Might have been the first time we not only had a podium of 600 up ever at Worlds in the 59s, but not only that, it's top five was 600 and up.
So the 59 kilo class has leveled up and there are notably a couple of people who were not there, right?
You mentioned one, Waskar, you know, wasn't the U.S.
representative.
And we also have that unfortunate situation, which if we start talking about it, I know we'll get annoyed, which has been happening across federations of someone getting a ban that may or may not be reasonable, who was also not there.
So, like, we probably have...
close to eight 59s who can total 600 or higher and it was not long ago at all that after the with the absence of feto you hit 600 you probably guaranteed to win right so this was awesome i i think um i would love to get matt's thoughts on the the attempt selection strategy in that battle but yeah i mean there was a moment where michael slabik had locked out
the the total he needed to win to tie on body weight setting another world record and then just popped out of his hands at the last second he collapses and it was like like this was one of the more exciting battles in all the world so very cool to see and i just really like to see like a weight class that is historically like you said not been that exciting um not only become exciting but also show that
