Gapoz Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 (edited) Christan sent me this video he wants to ask if Wade Gillingham can put this on on his website and please comment is this 2 or 3 reps. I tried to examine but can't see it clearly but it could be possible that it is somewhere closed at 0:45 - 0:48 seconds ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NI4qqaiH2c Edited December 6, 2014 by Gapoz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king crusher Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 What do those rate at? That's pretty serious ain't it. Nice work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chez Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 What do those rate at? That's pretty serious ain't it. Nice work. Harder than the average #3.5. usually 175-180. They have a nasty sweep and are wide so they feel harder than the rating. Strong work. I played it 1/2 speed and paused it several times but I couldn't see handles touch on the third. Definitely 2 reps though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gapoz Posted December 9, 2014 Author Share Posted December 9, 2014 anybody knows what the rule normally is. for example if a gripper is closed just 0,3 seconds is it a close? or is the rule that it has to be a convincing close? there was ever a member here who examined these kind of videos with slowmotion and zoom. Hope he will show up again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acorn Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Close just has to be visible as well as the block between the handles for each set. Does not have to be a specific amount of time. Send the video link to Wade and let him decide how many reps are clearly touching, etc. Only he can determine what goes on his cert list. - Aaron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juha Harju Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 HP Gripper Challenge Rules The gripper used must either be a brand new gripper (a) or a previously opened gripper (b). We reserve the right to inspect the gripper prior to adding your name to the list and in some cases may ask you to complete the challenge again using a new factory sealed gripper. a) For attempts on new grippers, the gripper must be in the original factory sealed package and opened on film (video format) or by the judge (competition format). Once the gripper is opened the gripper must remain on film (video format) or with the judge (competition format) until the challenge attempt is completed. b) For attempts on previously opened grippers, the distance between the handles at the end of the gripper furthest from the spring must be measured using a clearly marked ruler or digital display micrometer. The spring diameter must be measured using a digital display micrometer right above the point the spring inserts into the handle. The gripper must remain on film after the final close and be immediately measured with the result clearly presented on video. The gripper can only be touched by the closing hand after the start of the first rep. The off hand can be used to position the gripper but must be removed prior to the start of the first rep. The gripper reps must all start from no closer than 1.5 inches as measured by an official GHP Set Block which measures 1.5 inches wide, 1 inch thick, and 3 inches long. The Set Block must be passed between the ends of the handles by the athlete performing the challenge attempt (using their off hand) before each rep begins. The video (or judge) must clearly show (or see) the block passing between the handles at the start of the rep and the handles touching at the completion of the rep. If there is any uncertainty on either of these parts the rep will not count. The reps must be consecutive with the pause between the completion of a rep and start of the next rep being no more than 2 seconds. In the competition format the judge will indicate when the rep is complete with an audible count of the rep number. For video attempts please keep the video short and professional. Please show your face either before or after the challenge attempt. The video should be uploaded to YouTube as a private video or emailed to challenge@gillinghamhp.com. Unprofessional behavior, language, music, etc., could cause your attempt to be rejected. Submitting a video as participation in the challenge gives Gillingham Enterprises, LLC, the right to duplicate the video for purposes of promoting the challenge and the Gillingham High Performance brand. A ranking of the athlete against all other athletes participating in the GHP Gripper Challenge will be maintained. For the purposes of ranking, a single rep with a higher level gripper will be ranked higher than any number of reps with a lower level gripper. The athlete can make multiple attempts however their name will only appear once on the list at the highest ranking achieved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
