Chez Posted February 11, 2015 Author Share Posted February 11, 2015 I have spoken to the local regulars and we have decided Sunday March 15th at 10am works best for everyone for the training session. We will be doing a mock comp so people can plan there attempts. If you are interested, PM me for the address. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chez Posted March 12, 2015 Author Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) Been running around like a mad man lately. I just purchased my first home and I'm trying to schedule closing. We are having the training session/mock comp this upcoming Sunday. If you are interested and haven't let me know yet, please PM me. I will have the entry form up this weekend but you can bring it with you comp day and I will even have copies with me on comp day to fill out there. I only ask that people paypal the entry fee ahead of time if they can. My paypal is cricchezza@hotmail.com. The only reason I prefer the entry fee ahead of time is that I use it to buy prizes. You can bring the entry fee comp day worst case. Edited March 12, 2015 by Chez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedd Johnson Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I just sent in my entry fee. I'm interested in sponsoring, if that's cool. It will be under The Grip Authority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chez Posted March 14, 2015 Author Share Posted March 14, 2015 (edited) These are the rated grippers from my collection that I plan on using for the comp. I actually have over 50 grippers but I Left out the cheaper brands and grippers out of range (similar ratings to the ones posted and ones too hard for anyone coming) 1) COC Sport = 45.3 2) COC Trainer = 56.2 3) COC #.5 = 71.2 4) COC #1 = 83.3 5) COC #1.5 = 91.2 6) GHP 4 = 96 7) COC #2 = 108.9 8) COC #2 = 112.7 9) GHP 5 = 118.9 10) RB 210 = 128.9 11) COC #2.5 = 133.4 12) RB 240 = 136.5 13) GHP 6 = 137.5 14) COC #3 = 140 15) COC #3 = 141 16) COC #3 = 144 17) GHP 7 = 147.2 18) COC #3 = 149.2 19) COC #3 = 153 20) MM1 = 160 21) BBE = 165.3 22) COC #3.5 = 167 23) BBE = 171.5 24) RB 280 = 174 25) MM3 = 176.05 26) COC #3.5 = 179.7 27) RB 330 = 182.3 28) MM3 = 185.8 29) MM5 = 189.85 30) MM3 = 192 31) BBSE = 194.45 32) BBGE = 197.84 I need help filling some gaps. I really need grippers below my RB 210 rated at 128.9 lbs. After that gripper, the jumps are pretty reasonable. I only want high quality brands (tetting, COC, GHP, RB etc.) and grippers that are unaltered (can't be filed etc.) and no narrow grippers etc. The grippers have to rated by an established rater (someone who has rated a lot and has the process down) like Matt Cannon, Jedd Johnson, Chris Rice etc. Let me know what you got so I can decide which ones we are adding to the table.

Chez Posted March 14, 2015 Author Share Posted March 14, 2015 already have an updated gripper list with some gaps filled: 1) COC Sport = 45.3 2) COC Trainer = 56.2 3) COC #.5 = 71.2 4) COC #1 = 77 (Chris Andrade) 5) COC #1 = 81 (Chris Andrade) 6) COC #1 = 83.3 7) GHP 3 = 85 (Chris Andrade) 8) COC #1.5 = 91.2 9) COC #1.5 = 93 (Chris Andrade) 10) GHP 4 = 96 11) COC #2 = 102 (Chris Andrade) 12) COC #2 = 108.9 13) COC #2 = 110 (Chris Andrade) 14) COC #2 = 112.7 15) GHP 5 = 118.9 16) BBSM = 119 (Chris Andrade) 17) BBSM = 123 (Chris Andrade) 18) COC #2.5 = 127 (Chris Andrade) 19) RB 210 = 128.9 20) COC #2.5 = 133.4 21) RB 240 = 136.5 22) GHP 6 = 137.5 23) COC #3 = 140 24) COC #3 = 141 25) COC #3 = 144 26) GHP 7 = 147.2 27) COC #3 = 149.2 28) COC #3 = 153 29) MM1 = 160 30) BBE = 165.3 31) COC #3.5 = 167 32) BBE = 171.5 33) RB 280 = 174 34) MM3 = 176.05 35) COC #3.5 = 179.7 36) RB 330 = 182.3 37) MM3 = 185.8 38) MM5 = 189.85 39) MM3 = 192 40) BBSE = 194.45 41) BBGE = 197.84 Looks like now we need more below my COC #.5 rated at 71.2 lbs. Let know if anyone has these. I want a nice wide range including lower grippers because I may have some new comers at the comp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chez Posted March 17, 2015 Author Share Posted March 17, 2015 I changed my mind about the entry form. We are going to have a waiver sheet with multiple signature lines that people can sign at the comp like the King Kong Comp. It saves paper and its easy.

Chez Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 I'm going on vacation for the week and won't be back until March 29th. I won't have internet access so I won't be able to respond to any questions about the competition. If you have a question, send me a PM and I will respond as soon as I get back.

ironman46 Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Great News Chez, Hey is this contest still on for April 18th. I see that you will either be having it in Carmel or Katonah. I am very interested and I might have a couple of other newbies also. I am new to gripping but been powerlifting for over 30 years and this sport sounds great and I live in Putnam valley.Please let me know where your contest is, thank you. , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
