Wearing only a lifting belt for his IPF Junior raw deadlift world record attempt, Samkharadze grabbed the barbell in a mixed grip after setting up in a slightly wider-than-hip-width conventional stance. Once given the signal to lift, Samkharadze initiated the barbell off the floor and it never slowed until Samkharadze leaned back to lockout.
According to Open Powerlifting, Samkharadze competed in nine sanctioned meets before the 2024 EPF ECC. Across those nine contests, Samkharadze won seven and silver-medaled the two outliers. His competitive resume is highlighted by his three gold medals from consecutive IPF Junior World Championships (2021-23).
