Abstract
Devices are disclosed for use in the sport of Indian wrestling. In such a contest each of two contestants is to stand at a prescribed place such as on areas marked on a board. Each contestant holding one side of the device attempts by moving the device to unbalance the other contestant to cause him to shift his footing and thereby lose the contest. Each of the several embodiments of the wrestling device disclosed comprises a block having means for grasping it. In some embodiments the movement of the device by one contestant is fully resistible in all degrees of freedom of movement by the other, while in other embodiments one part can swivel relative to another, reducing in number the degrees of freedom of movement which can be resisted, and thereby changing the sport remarkably.
