EricMilfeld Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 I'm ready! I sent the money to Jedd, and if the gripper arrives by the 19th Matt Chips will act as my wintess. If not, Paul Knight will be my witness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Knight Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 why don't you just skip MM1 and go for the MM2? I know you can get that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opnsysme Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I guess since its the 17th it won't make it by the 19th and Paul will be the witness? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricMilfeld Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 why don't you just skip MM1 and go for the MM2? I know you can get that. You have to certify sequentially. I suspect the MM2 would take a peak performance on my part, anyways. I guess since its the 17th it won't make it by the 19th and Paul will be the witness? Yep, unless it shows up tomorrow or Saturday. And thanks for the votes of confidence, guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Knight Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 I'll witness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedd Johnson Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Gripper's on the way. Smash it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricMilfeld Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Gripper's on the way. Smash it! Will do! Give me a day or three to recover from the craziness that was The Show of Hands Grip Cup 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricMilfeld Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I have the gripper. My hands are still fried, but I should be good in a day or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricMilfeld Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 The gripper was sent back to Jedd early this morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alawadhi Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Comon tell us How did it went? DId you close it or grind the handles ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Piche Posted April 25, 2008 Author Share Posted April 25, 2008 The judges returned the verdict. 2 reds and 1 white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannon Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Eric, this is only a setback! If you got 1 white light, it must have been a close call. Hard work will persevere! (This also has me completely rethinking that I'm no where near the MM1 level. You closed a 189# gripper in a choker for Heaven's sake!)

opnsysme Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Well for what its worth, I know I am no where near peak performance after that crazy comp. So I'm sure if this gripper had landed on the contest day or a week later it would have been smashed. Eric is a strong dude no doubt.

Paul Knight Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 The closes were good - it was just a bad video. We had the camera set up on a tri-pod and were standing too close - so when Eric set the gripper it was out of view. FYI when your filming for Mash Monster set the camera so that its filming upwards - you have more play up and down to move your hand. Eric - you need to turn around and get back in line for the cert - we just need to train on the filming not the grippers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Piche Posted April 26, 2008 Author Share Posted April 26, 2008 The video was too far away too. Get that gripper closer. We have to be able to take a still shot showing the handles together (clear picture of them touching). The one submitted had the set blocked with the left hand too at the critical time. One needs to pull their set hand off out of the way of the camera so the starting handle position is accurate and not at a point that the squeeze has started.
