silverbackgrip Posted February 1, 2016 Author Share Posted February 1, 2016 Awesome!! Is it cool if I bring a friend? You all will probably wanna meet him. of course bro! Awesome! But now that I think about it, it might be two friends. But they are good people. I encourage all competitors to bring friends/family. The 2nd floor is huge... plenty of space Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richcottrell Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 I think this is very cool that you are able to pick a date so far in advance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverbackgrip Posted February 2, 2016 Author Share Posted February 2, 2016 I'm out with these events. Sorry Euclides! All good, I wanted to have heavy events but I can't really do that on the 2nd floor of the bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannon Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 I hear you. For me it seems like 2 of 3 are wrist events which, on a personal note, is simply my least favorite crud to train. Maybe we'll get you out to MN eventually. CPW will hold a contest one day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverbackgrip Posted February 2, 2016 Author Share Posted February 2, 2016 (edited) Custom engraved bottles of Blue Label for each weight class champion on Nov 5th at GripMania. No joke. Edited February 2, 2016 by Euclides 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electron Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 It was Jack to start... now Blue Label. Wowzers! The timing he announced it seems like he's trying to draw you back into competing... Did it work? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EJ Livesey Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Damn that bottle looks nice. And an even better trophy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Goguen Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 So I guess this event is cancelled. I saw that Euclides cancelled the event on facebook and un-friended me so I texted him to ask what's up and this was the reply. "Something serious happened in my family today, dumped a lot of responsibility on me. Don't have time for organizing a grip contest, need to lay low and clear my head for a while".

Just curious, does he have the MM1 gripper or was Jedd holding onto it to bring it to a contest?

Jedd Johnson Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Hopefully he can get everything sorted out, regardless of whether he puts on the comp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No glitch....display names went away. My post for over a week in Off Topic gave people a chance to switch things up. He defaulted to his login name after the upgrade.

Justin Matney Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Not really sure why he'd have to delete everyone from fb and take down his youtube yet again because of this. Sketchy. I've always been fond of him but come on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sketchy. I've always been fond of him but come on. man I hate talking negatively about anybody but if something terrible were to happen to me (which actually did recently) this is the last thing I would worry about -'unfriending' people and deleting vids. And if I remember right he did the same thing a few months ago (deleting his vids). Is anyone after him or something? well not my business really and I'm sure he is a nice guy (everyone said so at the southern squeeze) but I just don't understand him . I feel sorry for him of course if something bad happened to his family and hope he has the strength to get through it whatever it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EJ Livesey Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 i was going to help sponsor this event. I told him i would put some money and prizes toward this IF it was a 100% a go and it was sanctioned. he told me he would get back to me. now i see this. hope it all works out.
