MalachiMcMullen Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Strong stuff Paul Has anyone ever posted a video of closing the HG500 before, and isnt there supposed to a prize for the first? Don't you have to CCS the 400 and 500? I heard that somewhere and it seems insane to me. Great feats Paul! Again with the vid quality but STRONG stuff nonetheless :rock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yersinia Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 great vids. i love the fingerwalk thingy.. never seen it before and just tried it. taxed my thumb alot . and thats something i need :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Savage Posted March 11, 2008 Author Share Posted March 11, 2008 cheers guys pete> no other video as i dont think anybody else has ever closed the 500, clay edgin has holding the spring but as far as i know nobody but me without doing so - the cert for this is with credit card width set so ive a ways to go as yet mark> yeh it's bigger than i thought it would be, im kinda hoping my hands fit on the 30kg! ended up buying a 60kg bell so i have two of them on the way. I have not tried it the other way no, the video is the only time using it as yet, i dont know how hard it is the other way but my hands an especially thumb were shot from yesterday (i did 4 walks of the sledge) so i expect to do 2 finger lifts when fresh Yersinia> i got the sledge walking from diesel crew video http://youtube.com/watch?v=mgZsZ7vbAYw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dima700 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Great job Paul! Can you post vids of yourself trying to CCS a HG500 and a #4, so we can know how far you are from officially certifying on them? Thanks. I can't wait until the Youtube links Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big nasty Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 WOW IMPRESSIVE !!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Savage Posted March 13, 2008 Author Share Posted March 13, 2008 cheers guys as far as how far away i think i am, i feel it's possible i can certify on them both this year, but im closer to #4 - dont know about ccs attempts as ive not been doing ccs lately, but i will be getting more vids up, ill see what i can do with that blob, maybe try passing 3 10kg around the back for reps etc see what i can do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jad Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 (edited) Is this a "real" HG500 or one of the weaker ones like Clay closed (a prototype I think?)? I know the weaker/prototype ones are still monster grippers but not even comparable to the "real" ones. Edited March 23, 2008 by jad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKtheGreek Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 i dont know much about this so how much in CoC terms is the HG 500 like 4.2? Anyways im sure its harder than a #4 so congrats on closing the hardest gripper ever closed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Savage Posted March 23, 2008 Author Share Posted March 23, 2008 cheers guys this is a normal one, i know of only one prototype HG500 (the one that went on tour), clay said it was more like a hard elite in strength it's hard to rate like that because it's not really the same, it's a thick handle gripper, an i think im better with the thicker handles to be honest, but my best credit card attempt on this HG500 is double the distance of how close ive had my 07 #4, which is the hardest #4 ive tried Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
