Roger Roberson Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Hey guys I just bought a Narrow world class ext gripper from Mr Bill Ennis from weightlifterswarehouse . My question is anyone who may have this gripper plus the regular one how much harder is th narrow then the regular . Also I kno you have to get them rated to kno this . Just a round about number anyone that has had them rated. Any info is much appreciated thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a WC (it was a regular I believe, the distance between the handles was like a CoC gripper; 60-70 mm) and it was alright, but I didn't want it so I got rid of it (it was about as strong as my GHP 10). Narrow grippers like the Silvis Dinosaur Hunters (my T-Rex was preset to 125 & I can more or less close that) or Heavy Grips I guess require a bit more strength because the spring is coiled to where the ends are close together. I don't really mind either, as long as they suit a purpose for me. I guess you could look at narrow grippers (depending on the spread) to be like starting off with a ccs set or something.

wobbler Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Not exactly the same, but you can look at the CPW ratings data to compare the RB regular and narrow average ratings to get a general idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Roberson Posted September 6, 2016 Author Share Posted September 6, 2016 O wow the narrow rb365 is a lot more lighter then the regular. Dang I hope the narrow WC is not weaker lol was looking for a stronger gripper to cheat shut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
temmmeeee Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 I feel a narrow spread doesn't totally nerf a gripper, and I'd imagine especially not with a monster like that. I have a regular spread WC and can barely chest crush it let alone attempt to cheat close. I doubt the narrow WC would even be remotely "weak".

Roger Roberson Posted September 6, 2016 Author Share Posted September 6, 2016 Yeah I hope so my palm has done got used to the pressure I guess doesn't hurt anymore after a workout . I have the Thor ext handle but that thing is another Monster in its own league that thing still laughs at me lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Roberson Posted September 7, 2016 Author Share Posted September 7, 2016 I did some research on the grip board and was thinking that the narrow WC was the name of the gripper . Cause I have a thin handle old BB Pro I ordered few years back with the 5/8 handle's . So that's what I ordered from mr Bill Ennis is a WC ext handle 5/8 should be alittle tougher hopefully . Was able to cheat shut the regular WC ext 60 times per hand last night . Right wrist ached alittle but the rest over the weekend def helped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
