Bill Piche Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 You can do what you want with one hand. The above post should read "where no set or chalk is aloud." It just has to be one handed all the way. Picked up and closed all with the use of one hand. Like I said, how is he going to pull this off with varying hand sizes? Is he going to custom build a gripper for everyone that certifies so no one gets an advantage? I mean, what I meant was even 1/8" can give an advantage. No chalk allowed?

Bill Piche Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 If people with say hands at 7inches to 73/4 inches all have to use a gripper at 2 1/2 inch spread that would still be unfair for the person with the larger hand. That little bit of a difference can be huge. Unless he plans on making a gripper for every 1/4 inch in hand size. I didn't read this. This is what I as alluding to.

Matt Van Weele Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 Warren has a chart thought out in his head. Hand sizes that are in a certain length range will get a certain spread. Naturally as hand size increases the spread on the grippers will increase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrick Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 (edited) From the sizes that you mentioned before on hand sizes it would be unfair to some people MatVanWeele. Every 1/4 inch would make a difference. Edited February 21, 2004 by patrick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Van Weele Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 True but it's about the most practical way of doing it. I guess it comes down too doing it or not doing it. Don't like it don't do it. It's his cert and he can do whatever he wants. At least hes taking into consideration when it comes to a no set close. Hand size. He could just have a 3 inch spread and say here you go. Anyone have any better ideas on how to do it give him a call and throw down your thoughts.

JeffPeterson Posted February 21, 2004 Author Share Posted February 21, 2004 Matt when will this be starting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Van Weele Posted February 22, 2004 Share Posted February 22, 2004 I'm not sure Jeff. The guy making the cert sheets for him is having some family problems so that is delaying the process. I would say within the next few months he wuold be ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffPeterson Posted February 22, 2004 Author Share Posted February 22, 2004 I would like to see how I do at this. I'm guessing it will be extremely tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Van Weele Posted February 22, 2004 Share Posted February 22, 2004 I tried a gripper that would count for the cert when I was there in November. Needless to say it's tough. Especially with no chalk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
