Bill Piche Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Only two men before him have done it. And, that was FOUR years ago. Yesterday, Vano Sukhashvili made history with a precision MashMonster set and smoked the MM7. He only took one attempt because he has been battling an injury and actually did it with pain as well which makes it that much more impressive. The question is: Will he be the ONLY one to close the MM8 and sit atop the MashMonster pyramid ALONE? Congrats to Vano. Great video too making it a no-brainer for the judges! Video is up on the right. 24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony C. Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Wow, that close. Incredible. I think it's time we start discussing the MM9. Does it exist? It shall be slain. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have through MM10 already in place. The MM9 and MM10 are Tetting Pro grippers with high mounts. (like 3/8" and 5/16" or something can't remember exactly) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannon Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Incredible close. Vano you are the Mash Monster King! Make history and close MM8. Go for it. Tim Struse attempted the MM8 and I believe he said [paraphrased] that it was a perfect step up from the MM7. edit: found his quote: It's a perfect step up from MM7, probably 205-207ish. Very stiff throughout the ROM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
