Lifting the Inver Stone

 One of the coolest sites we have seen in a while!

Here is a random chance. I was weighing out honed granite Atomic Balls for a customer and we got one weighing exactly 265 pounds! That is the exact weight of the famed Inver Stone and it is sitting here, in stock and ready to ship...

Atomic Athletic Inver Stone: 265 lb. Granite Ball

If you are unfamiliar with the Inver Stone, it is the first natural Scottish manhood stone discussed in Steve Jeck's “Of Stones and Strength”, on page 8. The most famous lifter of the actual Inver Stone is Bill Kazmeier, who found one story about the stone to be a little bit off. Apparently, a challenge was to lift and carry the stone across the street to the Inver Hotel pub and lay it on the bar. A free pint was to be the prize. Unfortunately, Bill found that his challenge was only half finished, as the bartender informed him that the prize would only be awarded after the stone was returned to it's starting position. Personally, I believe that Bill planned on returning it anyway. He did get his pint.

“Of Stones and Strength” is filled with tales about manhood stones. If you do not already own a copy, make sure to pick one up. We do have several in stock. More importantly, if you have ever considered attempting the Inver Stone, I would jump on getting this very smooth Honed Blue-Gray 265 Pound Atomic Ball. I don't have a certified digital scale to weigh it with, but our big freight scale has only a one pound variance, meaning plus or minus one pound potential, which is more accurate than the classic York Olympic Standard Plates.

Live strong,
