EricMilfeld Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Can you give us any more details on the wrist roller event? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andurniat Posted January 4, 2013 Author Share Posted January 4, 2013 Can you give us any more details on the wrist roller event? 2" diameter, no knurling. Set-up will be similar to the LA FitExpo fishing pole that Odd Haugen uses. Done for time/speed, increasing in weight as you go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daniel reinard Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Oh bummer! I already got vacation for the other date. I'll see if I can even get the new date off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chez Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I'll be studying for the bar exam at that point but this will be a nice break and something to look forward to. Really like the idea of contesting grippers with both hands and the wrist roller. See you June. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Shoot, shoot, shoot. The last day of school is May 31. I am not sure how that would work taking the last day off of the school year besides totally awesome to start break early with a trip out to Ohio. Gonna haveta do some investigating to finagle this one. And I've laid the gauntlet down for a fellow strongwoman competitor to come compete with me. Did I say shoot, shoot, shoot yet? He better REALLY love her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwwm Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I have to say, I had some relief knowing it's a wrist roller and not a frame hold for the final event. Really glad I've kept my gripper hand strength balanced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricMilfeld Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Andrew, will all of the NAGS weight classes be contested? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andurniat Posted January 5, 2013 Author Share Posted January 5, 2013 Andrew, will all of the NAGS weight classes be contested? All Weight-classes will be contested. We will also then have everyone in an open class to determine the absolute champion like we did last year. The medley will be run how Chris did Gripmas2012 with 2 points available on every object (1 point per hand), some objects will be 2-handed and only worth 1 point.
