degradated Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Question for Wade mainly unless anyone else knows... I'm not sure if it has been asked (I apologize for the redundancy if so), but if we would still like to certify on a 7, 8 or 9 but can't get our hands on a real GHP set block, could the Cannon set block be used as a substitute for an official attempt video? I measured it and it is dead on 1" x 1.5" x 3", the same virtually as the official GHP. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said, “At this time I would say no just to keep things standard. If there is a lot of people calling for this we could change the rules.” So maybe he will weigh in because any future with the GHP cert will require an update anyway. I feel any properly measured block should be allowed. It’s been difficult to get an official block for years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe some other gripsters could chime in and request that substitutions are allowed given the scarcity of the real one. The more the merrier, to prove to Mr. Gillingham that the demand is high. In addition, since the company has no plans to move forward, I think it would be fair to allow substitutions as long as the gripper itself is legit.

C8Myotome Posted 5 minutes ago Share Posted 5 minutes ago I think the fact pasta man is still on the GHP list shows this challenge will never be active again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only real reason to have an active cert process is for promotion of products to buy to use for it, & it's basically free advertising. With nothing for GHP to sell, any more cert judging/posting videos etc would all be volunteer work. They were already having trouble with keeping GHP profitable, so I don't see why they would want to do free work now, after the business closed due to not making enough money. There were people waiting upto 6 months to hear back about their cert attempts previously, that I'm aware of. I don't think with the company closed, the old cert system is going to be any more active than it was while the company was actually running and selling things.
