I'll give it a go soon though! I'll be happy if I'm 10mm or nearer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the FBBC 2" wrist roller!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! its nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that thing won't collect any dust - just chalk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justiceislost1988 Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 I got a hat that says Master Baiter, bait and tackle. I got a shirt that says something very naughty.

dropkick Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 I get to buy myself something. Not sure what it will be yet. I'm thinking a 2.5" crusher. I'm in the same boat, friends and family don't typically get me grip toys.. but i've got a few bucks to spend on something i want, and i ordered a new set of extensor bands a few days ago as my green one is tearing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bencrush Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 I got a badass Mouse Pinch from Scott George (madss) that my wife convinced him to paint PINK. It's awesome. And I won't have much excuse in 2009 and 2010 to have a weak pinch if I can't improve it with unlimited access to an adjustable pinch apparatus.

MalachiMcMullen Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 (edited) No grip toys, but plenty of chocolate, turkey, blueberry crunch cake, and I now finally have a power rack!!! It's not the top o' the line, but I happen to a pretty savvy individual... I'll make it top of the line if need be :rock I guess I'll mention too that today was not the day to be riding in a Coulter family vehicle. My big bro's diesel truck literally died on the way to our grandma's house, had to be towed back via a tow strap and my dad's bigger truck. My mom's car blew a tire after hitting a MASSIVE pothole asteroid crater in the middle of the road. The rather expensive rim is now completely screwed and the tire shredded thanks to that one impact. Good thing my dad was driving or they would've been in real trouble. Happy Christmas the rest of the way though!!!

blueviper42 Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Closest thing to grip present I got is a Ironmind Dipping belt that is in the mail....I've really been wanting one for a while. Weighted chins and dips are two of my main training exercises, so I'm pretty happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
