CrossFit Games 2021 have arrived and many CrossFit Games 2021 competitors are thrilled. There will be women's competitions in addition to the regular men's and women's competitions. We have all heard about the women's competition, the Pegboard contest, the Cutting system, and Reebok's equipment, but do you know what to expect? Continue reading to find out! And don't forget to check out the CrossFit news page for updates on the competition!
Women are competing
The 2021 Crossfit Games women's competition opened this morning with a swim event. Jonne Koski was the winner in the first race. Tia Clair Toomey Orr was also victorious. After maintaining her lead throughout competition, Koski was declared the overall winner. Tall finished second and Eramoo O’Connell third, respectively. This was the first Games event for women and the women's team hoped to finish the podium.
The women's competition is filled with top-level athletes. The field comprises nine athletes, one of whom is a teenager who won the competition in Australia last summer. Kara Saunders, an Australian athlete who finished second in Australia in the team division and eleventh overall in 2020 is another contender. Andrea Nisler was also a rising star. In 2018, she competed in team division and came in third in the United States. She finished fifteenth in 2020. In addition to these athletes, the Women's competition will also feature a newcomer to the sport - Icelandan competitor Sara Sigmundsdottir, who won the first place medal in the World Crossfit Games earlier this year.
Pegboard contest
Pegboard was an original feature at Crossfit Games 2021. It was added to the Games' summer Olympic program along with double-unders and dumbbell overhead squats. Toomey-Orr set the record for most wins in a single Games event with 30. Sager won Event 11 men's and received his third Games win. There were several ties in the contest, but Toomey-Orr's dominance was not enough to keep him out of the win.

Athletes train for the CrossFit Games by focusing on ten general physical fitness skills: cardiovascular endurance, strength, flexibility, power, speed, and agility. Pegboard competition tests competitors' grip strength, coordination, and speed. Two wooden pegs are held between the hands of each competitor to gauge their grip strength. The competition was fierce, and the athletes were left feeling a sense of accomplishment after completing the Pegboard.
System of cutting
CrossFit Games will again use a cutting method for individual competition. While it's not as extreme or drastic as in previous Games, this year is very different. It consists of 15 events so 30 athletes could be reduced after the seventh and eighth events. CrossFit's decision on how to adjust the points distributed after cuts remains a question. The scoring table used in the 2019 games was nearly identical to the one used in 2021, so it's likely that this will continue to be the case.
This year's CrossFit Games team includes 236 competitors, making it the largest ever. Major cuts occur in the first six events. The field is reduced to 75 athletes. The top thirty athletes then compete in a sprint team to determine the top 10. From there, the top 20 athletes compete in the remaining six events. Veteran Games participants criticized Castro's system, claiming that the cuts were too drastic.
Reebok's equipment
Reebok has announced new sports shoes, clothing, and other equipment for the CrossFit Games. The new shoes are the Nano X1. They are designed to suit multiple fitness requirements. Reebok has billed this shoe as "the shoe of fitness," but it actually feels more like a traditional training shoe. DuPont's Kevlar upper promotes breathability while ensuring durability. The shoe's responsiveness is enhanced by the RopePro tech and a firm midsole.

CrossFit's contract with Reebok will expire at the end 2020. The Games will no longer have a title sponsor. Reebok has been sponsoring the Games for over a decade and now it is clear that its involvement will be declining. Reebok will no longer sponsor the Games' prize money, but it will continue to manufacture all the athletic apparel and equipment used by athletes, including the Reebok gear. The company will no longer call itself the "Reebok CrossFit Game", as it currently does.
