David Horne Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share Posted May 13, 2013 It was Eric. But we tried to keep it going quickly; 6 grip events, 22 grip competitors, 8 x 'best of 5' supermatch armwrestles, 45 mins for dinner. Started at 11am, and finished about 6.30pm. And then the guys still did another hours worth of grip and armwrestling feats and training! Great turnout! That's lot of fun to pack into one day.
