STANDING
BLOCK CHOP

The standing block

. chop is similar to the pole
falling contest but rather-
‘than falling a gigantic
‘pole, the competitors

hack their way through a

six foot high block of

timber. The Lions Park

resounds with the echoes
of the blows and the chips
pile up, covering the

loggers and the judges
Standing nearby. .
The standing block
chop is a good test of
strength and the loggers
ability with an‘axe.
