bencrush Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Will the Sledgehammer Deadlift (Sledge Choke) be "rising bar?" Or will we be able to take an easier attempt if we fail at our opener? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy C. Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Can we get some details on the water jug carry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colt Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 Ben the sledgehammer deadlift is NOT rising bar. Jeremy the jug carry will be a farmers walk with two 5 gallon jugs for distance plus time. That event will be done outside rain or snow. Shine isn't really a likely option. We have an event page on Facebook that you are welcome to join. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colt Posted February 11, 2014 Author Share Posted February 11, 2014 I apologize for the inconvenience but The Gripday Party event location has been changed from my house to STRONG GYM (about 3 miles away). This is a big opportunity for a much larger event and I am certain it will be worlds better. The new link with the updated address is below. http://docs.google.com/file/d/0B5yNevk2f5k5eG40M0Nibk5QalU/edit?usp=sharing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colt Posted March 10, 2014 Author Share Posted March 10, 2014 With under a month to go things are starting to pick up for the contest. Sasco Pavement Coatings has donated cash prizes for the top 3 overall in the competition to the tune of $250 (1st), $125 (2nd), $75 (3rd). If you are thinking about making it to this event don't wait to get signed up and let me know if there is anything I can do to help out with planning a trip to Springfield, Mo!

Philip_777 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I'm sad to report that I will be unable to attend the contest. I will be out of town on that day. Best of luck to all competitors! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jack Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Hey Guys, Not sure if I may have missed this info anywhere when looking, but will the 20mm grippers be a max for one hand only, or will both hands be calculated in the standings. I may be able to make this event, but I am still nursing an injured left wrist/hand and have no idea if my LH will hold up to any max gripper attempts. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colt Posted March 14, 2014 Author Share Posted March 14, 2014 Billy Jack, The grippers will be 4 attempts for a 1 rep max with one hand. Sure hope you can make it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jack Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Thanks for the info Colt. Hopefully I will be able to make it. If I do, it will be my first ever comp. I've been waiting for something closer to me than Ohio or Texas. I should should know for sure pretty soon. Kyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colt Posted March 21, 2014 Author Share Posted March 21, 2014 I just realized I didn't mention this on the gripboard but the sponsors have kicked in big time for this competition. There will be $250 and Erik Vining's Infinity Scroll for 1st overall, $125 for 2nd, and $75 for 3rd among many other prizes. Also a special prize for the winners of the sledge and gripper events.

bencrush Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I hope some of the photos that were taken by the other competitors get shared, because I lost a bunch of photos I took at the contest. My camera is having issues. And that is an understatement. Nothing past the sledge event has remained on my memory card. And I took somewhere north of 100 photos of everyone there. Now I have about 20 total. Pretty bummed about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odin Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Ben, google for deleted file recovery software. My wife had a similar issue w/ her camera and lost a lot of photos from a Filipino cultural event and I was able to recover them. I believe this is the free software I used successfully; http://download.cnet.com/Recuva/3000-2242_4-10753287.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bencrush Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Thanks for the link, Bob! I didn't even know it was possible to recover them. I also lost Josh's medley and mine from video. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colt Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 Ben, I have been insanely busy at work, but we will have photos, videos, and the results posted as soon as I figure out how to photo shop Luke's cat shirt onto my body. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
