Amy Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Just curious who is actively in grip and/or this board in the pacific northwest? Or somewhat close to be considered the west coast? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoggoth Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 My guess the most active and closest to you is Daniel Reinard in CA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Ruby Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I'm in central valley california. Waiting for a grip contest to open up near me I think daniel Reinard does them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniel reinard Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I'm pretty much between Sac and SF, Oakley to be precise. I'm trying to line up hosting a contest in April. It will be held in Concord. Is that anywhere near you two? Btw, there is always an open invite for training days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hubgeezer Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Two members with over 4000 posts between the two of them...Austin Slater and "Maidenfan". I think Austin is Washington and Morgan (last name escapes me) aka maidenfan I think is from Oregon. Not sure of the current activity and level of interest, but two very experienced guys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Posted February 14, 2013 Author Share Posted February 14, 2013 I am in Boise, ID. Somewhat disheartening there aren't more people. I hate, hate, hate that there aren't any contests out this way. Of course I can promote one, just wish there were some people to "bond" with. Oregon used to have a good grip following back in the day. Blech.

daniel reinard Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I hear ya Amy. I was in a similar boat. Eventually I met some other gripsters somewhat in the area and we started hosting comps. I also try to drum up interest at the gym. For those interested i've begun to put together our next comp. 4/20 is the tentative date and it will be in Concord. Look for a thread to be started in the contest section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amy Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 Just a heads up for the western people if you missed it, I will be a promoter for World's Strongest Hands in Meridian, ID. Right next door to Boise. Would be nice to finally connect with some people out west. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
