There is from memory, at least one GPC affiliated gym in Sweden. The one's who had Ed Coan over IIRC.
Or, as is the case here in Sweden and might also be the case in other countries, besides the US, there are no other federations. All of our meets, except for smaller meets arranged by powerlifting clubs (mostly targeting non-powerlifters to try to get them interested in the sport), follow IPF rules.

Got it. [emoji4] just not sure some people remember that the IPF is in Europe, not the US.
I know you know this.
This sort of thing has also happened in other sports here as well.
So for clarification, I'm against this ridiculous equipment fiasco, I think there are some significant problems in how things are being done.
