Nathan Say Posted January 24, 2002 Share Posted January 24, 2002 The biggest weight I've heard of is Herk Sparkman's 315+ (7 45's + weight of pin) lift that's on his page. Can anyone beat that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underdawg Posted January 24, 2002 Share Posted January 24, 2002 that 315 is awesome!! i haven't heard of anybody doin more than that, much less close. of course if it was to be done there are some guys on here that could do it. i know horne has hoisted some serious weight in the wrist curl.

Bearcat 74 Posted January 24, 2002 Share Posted January 24, 2002 I think Kinney did 325-350lbs. But this is just what I've heard. Someone care to correct me???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tou Posted January 24, 2002 Share Posted January 24, 2002 David Horne sure has a scary poundage on the wrist roller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldGuy Posted January 24, 2002 Share Posted January 24, 2002 As for how much weight can be wound up using a wristroller, much depends on the diameter of the roller and if it has knurling or not. The Ironmind roller is 2 3/8'' and is knurled. Other rollers are smaller and smooth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest baldy Posted January 24, 2002 Share Posted January 24, 2002 That picture of Herk (315 lbs wrist roller) shows the wrist roller at the extreme highest position possible. It looks a lot better than the picture in the IM catalog. As for a record, keep an eye on Herk. He seems to set a new PR with that thing and his neck lifts about every workout. I am sure that David Horne has an enourmous PR on a wrist roller too, judging by his unreal table top wrist curls. As for Kinney, has anyone ever seen him do any of these amazing feats (like tossing a full Inch replica from hand to hand for example) in person with their own 2 eyes? Don't read more into this than what I am typing, I am just asking a question. Anyone who is about to reply something about "trying to tear down a champion", re-read that last sentence. Anyone on this board who is honest with himself would want proof if someone on here claimed such a feat, so I am only asking the question no one else wants to ask. Myself, if somehow I got to the level of wrist rolling over 300 lbs or tossing the Inch, I would have my wife videotape it because I know that *I* would sometimes wonder if I really did it or if it was just a dream. Anyway, this is not a post trying to cast doubt on anyone. Just wondering if there are any first hand witnesses. I am not even insinuating that if there are no witnesses it is untrue, again this is just a question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
