History is best when you make it as you go. Finnish Brutality is organized annually and the latest one is the best, of course, but the legacy events are nothing to sneer at. All we did was our best!

Remote Brutality 2021
We have the results for Remote Brutality 2021! Our jury has crawled out from the dark and wet dungeon to announce the winners.
The task was to run a remote stage called Kasarda Universal, designed by @InRange TV.
Criteria for the winning entries were endurance, aesthetics, and general setup. Honorary mentions for ingenuity, 80's vibes, and for the use of bow and arrows. We think we mentioned bow and arrow at some point - and we got what we asked for, nice!
Winners:

- Wasteland Brutality 2021! (Remote Brutality 2021 Stage 1)

Next up: Finnish Brutality 2021 23rd-24th of October. Preparations have begun, join us #brutalitybootcamp !
Instructions
Because we had to cancel our Finnish Brutality: The Winter War, we decided to whip up a Remote Brutality contest. So dig out your rifles and kettlebells!
What you'll need
- A kettlebell, rock, backpack, or another item you can throw around weighing 20 kg (44 lbs). In the instructions, this item will be referred to as the kettlebell.
- A metal target (No larger than IPSC/IDPA silhouette)
- A rifle
- A timer
- Fault line indicators
Setup
- There are two boxes marked on the ground, A and B, with a distance of 15 meters
- The target is approximately 50 meters from the center point of the two boxes
- The shooter starts standing in Box A or Box B, with the rifle fully loaded, on safe, held at low ready.
- The kettlebell is in the same box with the shooter on the ground.
How to perform the stage
- At the buzzer, the shooter will go prone next to the kettlebell and acquire one hit on the target.
- The shooter will put the safety on, ground the rifle and get up. The shooter will take the kettlebell and throw it towards the other box.
- The shooter will grab the rifle, go prone next to the kettlebell and acquire one hit on the target.
- The shooter will continue in the same manner until the kettlebell crosses the fault line of the opposite box.
- The shooter goes prone next to the kettlebell in the box and acquires one hit on the target.
- The shooter will continue back towards the first box in the same manner and continue this until the 180 second par time expires.
Important
- The kettlebell needs to be thrown underhand with one or two hands. The shooter may not spin or shot put it.
Scoring
- Remove 10 seconds from the 180 par time for each hit made from the A or B Boxes after the first one.
- Hits from between the boxes do not count towards the final score; they only allow the shooter to move forwards.
- Violation of the kettlebell throwing technique will disqualify the shooter
- Violation of any gun safety rules will disqualify the shooter
How to participate
Take part in Remote Brutality by filming your performance of the stage and uploading the video on Instagram or YouTube using the hashtags #finnishbrutality and #remotebrutality2021, or uploading it to the Facebook event Remote Brutality 2021. Add your final score (180 s - 10 s for each hit from the A or B Boxes after the first one) to the post as well. Participation ends on March 14th, 2021, at 23:59.. On Instagram, your account needs to be public in order to participate.
Our jury will select three winners from all participants by March 22nd based on their overall performance and coolness factor. The first place will receive the Särmä TST belt set of their choice, so either the Pistol Belt set (value 304,95 €) or the Battle Belt system (value 284,96 €). The second place will receive a 100 € gift card to Varusteleka, and the third place will get a 50 € gift card.
Winners will be contacted personally via Instagram or Facebook private message. The winners' names will be published on Varusteleka's website and social media channels in the form of "John D."
