Fist of Fury Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Thanks Vinnie! @Wannagrip can the Mash Monster 0 title? I don't want to be a "Gripomaniac" anymore, although that description probably suits me better to be honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe soon. I am too much in love with full closes. I am now learning technique for silver bullet for a comp next month and doing full closes as a finisher. I just can’t get away from the mindset of “ if I can’t full close the gripper then I really can’t close it”. If you show someone on the street you can close a gripper they expect it TNS or no set. If you show them with an assist from the off hand they say “you cheated”. We know that’s not the case in the grip world... but there is something very satisfying about full closing that I can’t seen to get from off hand assist... but that is my cross to bear I suppose. If I have to practice it for a contest next time I will... but until then... full closes for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinnie Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 5 hours ago, Fist of Fury said: Thanks, not ready for MM1 yet but it will come... I heard the MM1 is around 153, but sets like butter. Since at the top of my range the set is what seems hardest for me, I almost think I might have a shot at it even now. But I won't ask to try until I can close my 153 rated COC 3, and I can't yet, so I am waiting. Once I can close that COC 3 (which is hard for me to set), I am pretty sure I will be able to do the MM1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a 156# rated #3 incoming, when I can close that one when I'm in bad shape any day of the week I know I'm ready for the MM1. 5 minutes ago, Andrew Dube said: Great close, nice wide set!
