Jedd Johnson Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 I am making the official announcement that I will be running a Grip Contest on Saturday, February 7th, 2015. This will most likely be in my garage in Wyalusing, unless I can line up another venue. The Events and the order are not yet finalized, however, I am certain a Silver Bullet Hold will be involved as well as Two Hands Pinch. More details regarding the contest will be put out as they are finalized.

John_Simon Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 hey! im still new to grip, just wondering why "closing grippers" aren't featured as an event in most competitions? Quote

Jedd Johnson Posted December 11, 2014 Author Posted December 11, 2014 hey! im still new to grip, just wondering why "closing grippers" aren't featured as an event in most competitions? Actually, in most competitions, they are. I am actually thinking about doing both, but not quite sure yet. 1 Quote The GOLD STANDARD Feat in Plate Pinching: 2x45s Pinch Get Your Copy Here: How to Pinch 2x45s Ebook Diesel Crew Store: http://www.dieselcrew.com/store/shop
Jedd Johnson Posted December 11, 2014 Author Posted December 11, 2014 For this contest, we will weigh everyone in so that you can attain stats for your proper weight class, but I am thinking of running divisions a little bit differently so that people of a similar skill level can compete against one another. It will be something like this: Novice: 1st Contest Intermediate: Already competed in previous contest(s) Grip veteran: If you already have a bunch of contests, certifications, and records lists under your belt you're in this class. Expert: Elite level grip athletes 4 Quote The GOLD STANDARD Feat in Plate Pinching: 2x45s Pinch Get Your Copy Here: How to Pinch 2x45s Ebook Diesel Crew Store: http://www.dieselcrew.com/store/shop

Jedd Johnson Posted December 18, 2014 Author Posted December 18, 2014 Been thinking about the events, and this is what we are looking at, so far. Silver Bullet - Definite Two Hands Pinch - Definite Pickaxe - Definite Bull Ring - Maybe (This is a piece of equipment my equipment company has been working on for Extensor Training) Wrist Wrench - Maybe Two Hand Axle Deadlift - Maybe I don't want to do more than 5 events. One of the Thick Bar events will most likely be taken out. I was toying with the idea of having a Max Gripper event as well, but have pretty much scrapped that. Anyone have a preference between Wrist Wrench and Axle?

Tank Andrade Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 never messed with a pick axe or wrist wrench , both sound fun though ! 1 Quote

Jedd Johnson Posted January 6, 2015 Author Posted January 6, 2015 I've got a video shot and need to upload it. The easiest way to practice it is to get one from me. I think they will be very affordable. Quote The GOLD STANDARD Feat in Plate Pinching: 2x45s Pinch Get Your Copy Here: How to Pinch 2x45s Ebook Diesel Crew Store: http://www.dieselcrew.com/store/shop

riccardomagni Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Looks like an awesome contest. If I wasn't competing the next day, I would seriously consider going. 1 Quote
Jedd Johnson Posted January 23, 2015 Author Posted January 23, 2015 Getting a few forms in here and there. Several beginners are coming, so that is awesome. Can't wait to work with everybody. If you're looking for an intro contest, this will be good. Plenty of intermediates coming as well. It's looking like a SuperMatch between me, Luke and my old buddy Eli. These will be good events for him to place well in against me and talk lots of smack with me and Luke about, while still getting his butt handed to him. That alone will be good entertainment for the rest of you.
