IROC-Z Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Mike - Let me know as soon as you guys come up with a set date. I'm interested in attending if I can coordinate with my work schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bullitt Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Date will be announced by tomorrow guys. Here are the events: Grippers: MMS 2HP: Standard Euro setup, rising bar DO Axle Deads: Max weight, rising bar 1" FBBC vbar: Max weight to 2" height, rising bar Sledge Lever: Climber setup (version 2 if ready), rising bar Evil Medley: Definitely will be some sledge DLs in this. Special invite to Rex, Mike K, and Bob Lipinski. With Goody there, we could have a wrist strength battle royale (with cheese). So far we have FBBC and The Diesel Crew sponsoring.

Guest Bullitt Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Oh, and Ben & Josh... the 1" vbar event wouldn't be the same without you guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bencrush Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Oh, and Ben & Josh... the 1" vbar event wouldn't be the same without you guys. Appreciate it Mike! If my finances take a turn for the better next year you'll see me out there. Glad to see 1" vbar returning to a grip contest. You'll be near 400lbs by then. Train hard and take that top spot man! It would be Vbar-halla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Lipinski Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Oh boy, I wish I could make it. My work schedule is totally retarded. I have to skip sleeping a few days just to get my schedule back on track after this meet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to skip sleeping a few days just to get my schedule back on track after this meet. Totally understand Bob. Looks like we will be using Chris' setup for both contests, so the numbers will be easy to compare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chuck Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Any idea on a date for this yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bullitt Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Waiting for confirmation from the gym. May be a few days before we get that because Goody is about to have a baby any minute. We are shooting for the 8th of May. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoggoth Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I think I might take a full 2 weeks out there. Do some sightseeing. Got to find out if the Smithsonian's close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bullitt Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 (edited) I think I might take a full 2 weeks out there. Do some sightseeing. Got to find out if the Smithsonian's close. It's right at the mall in downtown DC buddy. You will love it! Plus, you will only be a 2 hour train ride from Philly if you want to hit the sites there. Then only another 2 to New York. If you let me win, I will even serve as a tour guide. By the way, Weldon has graciously agreed to sponsor as well, so that brings the list of sponsors to: FBBC Diesel Crew Death Grip Remember our sponsors when you need equipment guys!!!

Shoggoth Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Deal. I think you've got a lot more to worry competition wise from some of your regulars. I'll try and keep the bottom not to far out of whack though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naturalstrength Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I am definitely going to try to make this one. Not too far from where I live(by plane at least ). I suck at all the events(maybe some braced bending ) but my main reason to attend is to meet all of you guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bullitt Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I am definitely going to try to make this one. Not too far from where I live(by plane at least ). I suck at all the events(maybe some braced bending ) but my main reason to attend is to meet all of you guys That is awesome Carl! Can't wait to meet you bro and so happy you stuck with everything. You have been making some really good progress on the pinch feats and I promised Mike we would have at least one reverse bend in the medley. I liked the brace bend at Gripmas. Definitely a thought. Anything we would have that humans like us could do will be a paper clip for you though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoggoth Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Hopefully reverse as that and DU are the only styles I can do. Hopefully I'll be able to reverse a red by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bullitt Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 The date has been finalized. Capitol Grip Cup Saturday, May 8th, 2010 9:00 AM registration start. 10:00 AM contest start. Balance Gym @ Thomas Circle 1111 14th Street, NW Washington, DC 20005 2700 square foot gym with staff to help us run the events! Sponsors (so far): Fat Bastard Barbell Company Diesel Crew Death Grip Events: Grippers (MMS) 2HP - (Euro) DO axle deadlift for max weight (2" Apollon Axle for da boys, and 1 5/8" for da girls - like Gripmas) 1" vbar Sledge lever (using Chris' setup version 2) Medley from Hell - All events will be rising bar except grippers. - There will be a mens' and womens' division (there may be more if we get a ton of people) - Because we have a lot of help and a large facility, some events may run concurrently to save time. For instance, the men and women can be doing axle at the same time because they use two different bars. - Depending on the number of sponsors we get, the entry fee may come down (if this happens after you send in your entry fee, we will refund the difference). Right now it is $40 if you send it before April 15. $50 after April 15th. You can send a check to: Mike Rinderle 1444 Vineyard Ct. Crofton, MD 21114 Please also specify what size t-shirt you would like. Who's in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoggoth Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Seems no-one else wants to spend 2 days at the Smithsonian or checking out all of the Washington stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
