Florian Kellersmann Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 In my opinion, Jedd Johnson deserves "Grip Master and Legend" Status like David Horne and Richard Sorin on this board. What do you think? Double Deep Dish York Plate Pinch (first ever), Inch clean (lightest Person ever), Blob Domination and his Overall achievements in Grip as a Sport, just to mention a few things.... 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tspinillo Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Without a doubt he does. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist of Fury Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 But he hates grippers? Just kidding, I absolutely agree. Very strong and knowledgeable guy for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
temmmeeee Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Hell yea! And of course how much he has promoted the sport over the years. I'm sure many others, along with myself, first stumbled upon the grip world through one of his youtube videos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

svr Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Jedd's physical accomplishments are great. But the amount of information he has imparted, the number of people he has helped, and the selflessness of his sharing are more incredible. Not many like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jörg Keilbach Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Absolutely. Jedd Johnson is the Grip Guy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpav2010 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 I agree. I've learned a lot from him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burkhardmacht Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 He really deserves this status! In my mind he has this status for many years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Blackburn Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 100%, he deserves it. Not only has he been a trailblazer for grip, but he has brought so much exposure and worked so hard for the sport. I mean it when I say my life and demeanor changed when I started training with Jedd and was introduced to gripsport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alawadhi Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 He deserves that. The most important aspect is he is promoting grip like nothing. And is very strong in grip overall. He worked a lot to achieve where he is. If this title isn't given to him here. He is always remembered by people to be a grip master and legend. That's what it matters really. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvance Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Agreed. Consistent and persevering - always striving to better the sport. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bencrush Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 I already think of him like that. And like the others, he is very humble about it and possibly might be a bit embarrassed by our attention. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Rinderle Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 He has done as much or more for this sport than anyone, while also being one of the top competitors year in and year out for well over a decade. In addition, he's pretty much running out of elite feats to accomplish. Add to that his early, elite bending days and you have to put him in the Grip Legend class. Period. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine did too a decade ago. Unfortunately it was for the worse. But I won't hold that against him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
