David's left hand is 7" and his right is 9" so he gets to compete in both groups ???

David Horne Posted July 31, 2007 Posted July 31, 2007 I will measure up in the small hand class, but I want to go against the large hand boys as well. David Quote
Too Tall Posted July 31, 2007 Posted July 31, 2007 If not many more sign up...let's just go with 1 open class Quote
climber511 Posted July 31, 2007 Posted July 31, 2007 If not many more sign up...let's just go with 1 open class You big hand boys use one hand and we small hand fellows use both - I'd probably still get beat though. Doesn't matter to me - I'm just trying to beat myself anyway.

climber511 Posted August 7, 2007 Posted August 7, 2007 Well, I'm ready to go - I've done one grip workout in preparation and my strategy is to out rest all you guys and hope you come in over trained. Don't you all forget that 3 hour workouts are your friend the day before the contest. Looks like about a dozen of us - so it should go pretty quickly. I'm pretty bummed we won't have time to play around afterwards if we have to be out of the gym so quickly - that's the part I enjoy the most. Wanted to see the Eaton sledge show again, arm wrestle David (NOT), and just fool around. Oh well.

barbe705 Posted August 7, 2007 Posted August 7, 2007 I just looked over the entry form/event list again. Are we supposed to submit photos? It mentions a profile form on page nine but, it only goes to 8. Quote Brent Barbe "The truth is often stupid." Bender Bending Rodriguez
