Tarantula Olympic Games

[guywithaspider]

In honor of the Winter Olympics coming up next month I'd like to know what T's do you think could when Olympic events. It doesn't have to necessarily be winter Olympic events it could he summer events as well. If this thread goes well I'll probably post a poll or two for the most popular events. So let the games begin!:biggrin:oh:

 

[Curious jay]

Poeci communal for the relay race.

Psalmopoeus irminia for the shot putt. (Somewhere I saw a video of one flinging a bolus across its tank, think it was a user here who posted it).


H. Gigas for the swimming events.

 

[kean]

Avics for the long jumps!

 

[CitizenNumber9]

OBTs for those long dashes

 

[kean]

King Baboons & E. Pachypus for Weightlifting.. those back legs are gonna help..

 

[CitizenNumber9]

Too bad there isn't a beauty event, A. Versicolor slings would knock out the competition :biggrin:

Or the ice-skaters though I'm not sure they would enjoy the cold....

 

[LordWaffle]

LP or any of genus Theraphosa power lifters.

 

[Keith B]

Psalmopoeus irminia for the shot putt.

Gets my vote too. They are excellent at flinging things across the tank long distance. I wish I caught mine flinging his bolus when I watched him the one night. Easily could've traveled several feet if not for the glass. I posted a link to a video of mine flinging his shed exuvium into his water dish on an older thread. Here it is again.

I'd vote G. pulchra for the rings, mine loves climbing up to the top of her tank and leap from one corner to the next.
