Teemu I Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Two more Finns have just few hours ago succesfully closed CoC #3 under official conditions to certify themselves by the IM rules. I'm almost 100% certain that their cert attempts will be acepted by IM, as the official witness Kimmo Kokko is very strict. I'm sure we'll see a video pretty soon, unofficial congrats to Tomi Kujala and Juha Harju, both are gripboard members and both have closed CoC #3.5's as well with parallel set. Well done guys, I had faith in you both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griparn Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Congrats to both! Finland must be one the best gripcountry if not the best, if you consider how few people living there and how many griptalents there is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
