Victoria Highland Games
Weight for Height is one of the greatest tests of explosive power in Heavy Events. The implement weights between 21lbs and 56lbs and is thrown with one hand, overhead for maximum height.

The athlete is given up to three attempts at each height and is still in the competition until he misses three attempts and is scored on the last successful height cleared.

The winner is the athlete that clears the greatest height with the least amount of misses.
