climber511 Posted October 22, 2017 Author Share Posted October 22, 2017 (edited) I’d like to try something a little different at Gripmas this year. I will be of course hitting up all my long time sponsors who have been so loyal over the years. But I’d like to ask everyone who is attending Gripmas to be a sponsor as well. This is certainly not mandatory in any way and will be done anonymously. Please bring some small item that you no longer use or are done with like a book – bent steel etc to be given away as a prize – look at it as a kind of an exchange program perhaps. I have a “Power Rack Glute Ham” I’m giving away – it will probably need modified to fit your rack but it’s a pretty nice piece – it’s been taking up space and not used for several years now (you will need some space in your car to get it home). I also have a few books that will go on the table. And if you don’t want to participate – that’s just fine as well. Of course I only have 3 people signed up so far – so who knows how this might work out? It’s just something that ran through my head today.

climber511 Posted October 31, 2017 Author Share Posted October 31, 2017 Thanks Andrew! No item and no weight on as item is a definite - except for fixed weight items like Gracie or the Inch - Blobs etc. Anything loadable is subject to change. Also not all items will be included - this is just what is being considered at this time. This will at least give everyone a fair chance to train for things. Any questions - just ask. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
climber511 Posted October 31, 2017 Author Share Posted October 31, 2017 I have been playing with the Sledge in the Rack. At this point the two weights appear to be 20# (base weight of my setup is a pair of 10# sledge hammers for the light). The heavy version will probably be 32.5#. Neither of these weights are set in stone. It is also likely that I will allow gloves for this event simply due to the pain factor. Only the gloves I furnish will be allowed so regardless of hand size no one can slip in a pair of heavily padded gloves in gain an advantage. All gloves will be the same for each size. This event is not covered by NAGS so there is no rule set to follow - so I guess I'll set the rules. No number of reps on the light hammers will beat any number on the heavy setup. You will have a chance to try both pair before the event and then make your choice as to what you want to compete with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a Pantke family tradition when someone decides to go on a diet the rest of the family orders pizza's, cake's, and anything else high in calories. Might be time to expand the tradition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony C. Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Thanks for posting....line 6 looks to be the same for all three points. Is this dependent on the weight class the person is in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I really wanted was to show a list of possible events so that people can train them. All the items shown will not be used and weights etc are subject to change (except for you Chez - I kinda like what this will do to you :)) 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
