the swiss Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 (edited) What a day! In a few words: - Franky and Honk brought lots of blobs/hubs/etc... for the loading event, which was really cool. - more people than ever at the comp (17 in total, but I only put the scores of those who completed all the events) - 2 competitors got stuck and sent back at the border after 5 hours drive from Paris !! fortunately, They tried another entry point in switzerland and it worked!! - Franky gave me a real hard time, until the last event (we exchanged 1st place 2 times up to that point), where unfortunately his lefty was out, and where he dropped 60kg on his foot!! The foot became all swollen and blue and we were all worried that it was broken, and all the girls were around him. - A total beginner humiliated both of us at the loading event (which was a huge success by the way). He had large hands with some nice strength to go with it! - Lots of prs for me, and first time trying the hub (which I lifted lefty) and the little inch (which I came close to cleaning after the comp, I am pretty sure I could do it with a little training). - Two guys (Armand and Tom) had never lifted weights (in the traditional sense), but Tom is a climber and Armand has recently started training grip with grippers and some pinching.

David Horne Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 (edited) David, Great stuff! Well done to all. If you give me Lou's full name I will put them in the Top 3 list. David Edited March 12, 2007 by davidhorne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honk Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 (edited) Me: "Do u train ur hands on a regular basis?" Kemeda: "No I've never trained them." Me: "So u got strong hands by accident?" Kemeda: "That's a fact." Edited March 12, 2007 by honk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikael Siversson Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Congratulation to the win David! It is good to see that your competition is gaining in popularity. How wide did you guys open up the grippers for each rep? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankyBoy Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 It weren't reps Mikael but singles. One had to set the gripper (not below parallel), close it, then let the gripper open fully, take it out of the closing hand and set it again. Time Frame 90s.

amaury Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Congrats for another win David. Great lifts by Franky also. Lou's and Kemeda performances are outstanding for guys that don't train their grip. Looks like it was the best edition so far! Cool. Cheers, Amaury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
