The Brutal Montage - Winter War - Finnish Brutality 2021

Finnish Brutality 2021 was intended to be a Winter War theme, and while the continued brutality of 2020 caused the event itself to be cancelled, a small handful of folks were able to run some of the stages in the Finnish snow.
This video takes you behind the scenes and shows you the other stages and runs you haven't seen anywhere else - the brutal montage.
The saga of Finnish Brutality 2021 is not over, however - we still plan to run the main event in October - the Finnish mud edition. Stay tuned!
Brutality matches are the work of Karl Kasarda of InRange TV, and Finnish Brutality is a collaborative endeavor between InRange & Varusteleka.
We'd like to thank SAKO Finland who helped sponsor the event and provided ammunition.
Polaris Logistics helped get the WWSD2020 carbine there, thank you!
We were thrilled to have Varusteleka, Bloke on the Range, Forgotten Weapons, Les from Polaris Logistics and @jenkarolina as participants!

"vittu mitä paskaa" = "Fuck, what a load of shit" that came straight from the bottom of his heart :D

[@jukkatalari3896]

Yeah, opening the ski track into snow is "a bitch with icicles up her arse". That's why the lead guy is changed often (how often depends on the conditions). I think the first guy to shoot a stage was rotated, Ian was the first at one stage?

If history and youtube have taught me anything, it is that the Finnish people are probably some of the coolest, finest, and toughest in the world. Much respect.

[@Dreju78]

- are you finished? - I am Finnish! *happy grin* 😁

[@bluefalconssuck5881]

Jenny isn't the fastest or strongest there, but she seems the most accurate... She missed what? One pistol shot? One helluva competitor.

[@mattfleming86]

USMC training doctrine seems to be the most logically sound. Strength, endurance, etc. are very important and worth training for. BUT nothing is more important than being able to hit your target. I think marksmanship and clever tactics are an order of magnitude more useful than brute strength. Folks like her are a force multiplier.

[@magoid]

I noticed that too. After each trigger pull there was a "ping", less one time I guess.

[@Yupppi]

jBurst in laughter with the honest "vittu mitä paskaa" when Eric started. VMP. Also the traditional "vitun vittu". You can't get more natural finnish experience than that. Same with Jenny's "perseestä". Good stuff. Jari seems like a serous skiing nut, well practiced. At first I thought the strategy of focusing mostly on the skiing part which takes a lot of the time and letting the shots suffer a bit was a good strategy, but after seeing how many misses start to stack up over laps, I suppose you lose the time you make up skiing quickly. Would love to see Karl get to do this series of tracks as well.

[@themeatpopsicle]

didn't miss a single shot. i reckon we'll be seeing some kettlebell work on her instagram soon haha

Wait, does Kasarda require a half prone or was that just her set-up technique? adding pushups every shot seems like even more work

[@BurningMonkey]

@@RaphYkun The stage requires you go prone for every shot, but in a different video it was mentioned that there was quite the snow berm right in front of the shooters, so they were allowed to shoot from kneeling.

Exactly. Without using the straps, you are not able to use the poles effectively. After all, skiing is supposed to make moving in snow easier, not harder.

[@paanikki]

Usually a sled like that is towed by 3 to 4 men, depending on the terrain and the weight. The "cargo" might be anything from a few boxes of food or ammo to a 10 person tent, stove and firewood. In the service back in the 90's I heard that they used to transport light mortars plus grenades in those sleds.

[@Copenharvest]

[@Legman688]

Next time you have skiing stages, Jari should only be allowed to use one ski, just to give everyone else a fighting chance.

[@Doppeldropper]

Hmmn, no "telemark turns" with skies while making the turns? Could that be disappearing folklore knowledge these days 😉?

[@FirstDagger]

Probably not so easy with all that gear.

[@Finwolven]

Not going downhill, so telemarking isn't really a thing you want to try when pushing yourself with the skis and sticks. Also, telemark turns are pretty old-school technique in down-hill too.

[@johanwrisemo4016]

Why would you do that in this terrain? Sure when going downhill, but what's the point when you're just shuffling a few meters in open terrain and high snow?

[@charlesadams1721]

Wow, doing burpees while in the snow, throwing a 44 lb. kettlebell AND shooting, is pretty intense, not to mention finding the kettlebell when it buries into the snow. Additionally, Jennie is throwing what seems to be approximately 1/3 of her body weight. For the adult males that equivalent would be throwing a 60 lb kettle bell!.

Is there a finnish army manual on how to shoot and move from skis? These guys made it look awkward af :(

[@Xerdoz]

Well skiing with these types of skis is a bit more awkward than with the "normal" cross country skis.

[@torstikinnunen3801]

There is. It's infamous for starting with the sentence "Skis ease troop movement, especially in winter" on some of its versions.

[@inund8]

@@Xerdoz Having not tried ski shooting, but having skied for most of my life, it looks like the issue is that poles, while somewhat necessary for balance, get in the way of shooting. I don't think its the type of ski, since XC skis would just make you loose your balance in deep snow.

[@Xerdoz]

@@inund8 These "forest skis" or whatever you wanna call them are wider and heavier and usually longer as well than normal cross-country skis. Of course the poles get in the way as well but just moving your feet around and swinging the skis around is much faster and easier with normal cross-country skis. Of course the skis themselves don't really cause any hinderance to the actual shooting just on the mobility and movement.

[@amschind]

It's crazy to watch Jenny to keep up in the Kasarda Drill despite short throws by virtue of exceptionally fast target acquisition and accuracy. In the future, a smaller kettlebell for female competitors might be reasonable so that the playing field is a bit more level.

[@InrangeTv]

The playing field is fair in that everyone gets the same kettlebell. Anything else would be not fair.

[@509Gman]

I can’t throw a 45lb kettlebell very far either, dangly bits be damned.

[@sebastianjohansson5312]

I think this matters more for professional athletes. If you put up a female olympian against a male one, you really will see the biological advantage of the male body. For amateurs however, a dedicated woman can exercise enough to handily beat an average dude.

[@Incinerico]

I reckon with more KB practice she'd be a top contender by Virtue of her amazingly fast and accurate technique on the gun.
