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! 👊🏻

I asked this question to Wade in 2022. 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.

Cool, thanks for your input Matt! I sure hope he changes his mind on the matter. 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.
