rico300zx Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 I can't wait for these results! What will be the pinch widths offered? And what type of fat bar will be used, knurled or not? Rico Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobsterone Posted May 4, 2010 Author Share Posted May 4, 2010 I've forgotten what the minimum is on the pinch but Dave's maxes at 60mm. The bar is a well seasoned with chalk but not knurled. I taped it at 49.5mm thick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lol999 Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 As mentioned elsewhere, forecast v.wet for Saturday. Hope this won't impact too much on pinch weights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mobsterone Posted May 7, 2010 Author Share Posted May 7, 2010 I'm back over at 6pm to reweigh some plates so my days not done yet. I may do some stretching if it doesn't take too long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lol999 Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 Not going chaps. Full of a really bad cold and an upset stomach to boot. Too long a trip for me to risk getting a state away from home. Gutted but I'll be back next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
