Overview

You are the Pendulum.

Debuting at the 2021 OCRWC, Pendulum rewards athletes that have mastered one of obstacle course racing’s essential skills: hip based momentum swings.  Gamble on a jump and fly through, or go smooth and steady and glide.  Or if all else fails, go for the two handed swing to an elevated bar traverse.  Warning: the height of the bar may vary!
