Jedd Johnson Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 US Grip Sport National Championship Date: 6/18/22 Location: Harrisburg, PA - Specifics to come Entry Form: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hCYI7uz3A_Dge1T-w6T2z4Nokt86-GR5/view?usp=sharing My goal is to make this event the biggest US Grip Championship ever. It will be held in a "festival" style venue, as part of at the very least an Arm Wrestling tournament, and possibly a Strict Curl, and by the time we get to it, there could be even more. So get ready to have a great time in an awesome environment of strength. I'm also planning my event to be 2 days - with the normal type of National Championship contest on Day 1, and then on Day 2 the plan is to hold the first qualifier for the new grip season, as well as a Championship for Arm Wrestlers, Military/Police/First Responders, which includes women's divisions for both. Day 2 will most likely involve the Crane Scale to be able to put as many people through it as possible. Entry Form and other info to come. Thanks again!

Vinnie Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 I plan to attend. I haven't trained anything in months and probably won't be able to before then, except that I will at least try to beef up my block set gripper close to where it was last time I did that event. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, or better of course. But I don't want to lose ground on it, that's for sure. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even won $125 once! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedd Johnson Posted May 3, 2022 Author Share Posted May 3, 2022 Hey everyone. Just a reminder on the Early Bird registration deadline of May 21, 2022. It's $60 up to that date and then it goes up afterwards. I have plans to buy prizes for all the weight class champions, but I can't do that until I know who is coming. Up until now, I have received ONE entry. Thanks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be even more awesome if I was at my peak, when I could have done that lol. I will enjoy trying (I will take one stab at it even if I miss lower, just to say I tried). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
