Open WOD 12.2 Announced

I had a great day snowboarding up Grouse Mountain yesterday with my friend Jon.  It had snowed 13cm overnight and we got the second lift up the mountain.  There was almost nobody there, and every run was covered in fresh powder.  I had my camera with me, so I was a bit more cautious than usual.  After a few runs we hit the jib park.  We had to make our own tracks in order to get enough speed to hit the features.  I ended up doing my first rails and boxes.  They had a mini rainbow rail and a small kinked rail, both of which I rode.  I also tried boardsliding a box, which ended with me falling hard on my ass.  It was a really fun day, and my legs were really sore by the end of it.

Once I got how I looked up the next crossfit open WOD, as it had been released on the website.  It is a 10 minute timecap of:
30 snatch at 75lbs
30 snatch at 135lbs
30 snatch at 165lbs
AMRAP snatch at 210 lbs

I love doing snatch workouts, but I don't have a very heavy snatch.  My 1 rep max right now is 135.  I could probably hit 145, but the 30 reps at 135 is going to be a huge challenge.  I would like to hit 40 reps or higher.  I think that is a realistic goal for me.  We'll see how it goes on Saturday!
