bencrush Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Wow Martin!!! Super freaky strength man. I can't think of anyone who would beat you in a gripper contest where both left and right hands were contested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannon Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 (edited) After a 10 month dry spell, I have a new MMS gripper PR! I last closed my #3 in March of 2008 when Chris Mathison was at my house. Since then I have got 155-159 grippers down to a gnat's ass (like my 155lb GM), but never managed a solid close I was happy with. So I borrowered a couple grippers from Luke and calibrated it shortly after closing it. 152lb #3. Hooray!

Autolupus Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Paul Knight's #4 close was a 199lb calibrated gripper from John Eaton, wasn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewokhugo Posted January 29, 2009 Author Share Posted January 29, 2009 (edited) it doesnt count Derek, only "regular grippers" are allowed.

Paul Knight Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Paul,yes , i need to do it !(and coin challenge as well)but first i'd like to khow do u rate your #4 close?? 199 lbs like Auto said? it was calibrated at Gripmas and came out to 199. I didn't calibrate it myself and I already sent it back to Aaron. I've had grippers feel harder than what they calibrate at and also had grippers feel easier than what they calibrated at, so I could'nt tell you without me calibrating it myself - thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannon Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 (edited) Holy cow, what an amazing close by Gabriel. He continues to impress.

Thanks. Axel Hoffmann - who sells the RB products in Germany - rate them for me. It's a RB330. The close isn't perfect because my hand was shaking very much. I'll try it again on Thursday.

ox3782 Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 180lbs 8.6oz Super Elite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grippster Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Wow, those super elites seem to vary a lot for some reason than any other BB gripper. Magnus has a 225lb SE, and yours is only 180. And from what I've been seeing even normal ones are anywhere from 190 to 205lbs which is a lot considering BBs are usually consistent and good quality.
