Matt Van Weele Posted July 17, 2003 Share Posted July 17, 2003 Brian when doing reps with the grippers how far must the handles open before starting another rep? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bseedot Posted July 17, 2003 Share Posted July 17, 2003 Sponsors and prizes so far (distribution of prizes is still to be determined)... Plaques for top finishers Five homemade wood gripboards to hang your grippers on (each holds ten grippers) Bill Hinbern's Super Strength Books is providing five copies of each of the four grip books he sells Molding A Mighty Grip by George Jowett How To Develop A Powerful Grip by Edward Aston Developing The Grip And Forearm by Thomas Inch Iron Claws by Michael Brown IronMind is providing a Go-Really-Grip Machine and five 1 year subscriptions to M I L O. Uptown Tattoo is providing the artwork for the contest shirts. That's what's concrete for now. BC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bseedot Posted July 18, 2003 Share Posted July 18, 2003 Brian when doing reps with the grippers how far must the handles open before starting another rep? No reps. This event will be a dime hold for time. Similar to a strap hold but not as easy to cheat. Similar to a hold for time but easier to judge. Once the dime falls from between the closed handles your time is stopped. You select which gripper you'd like to use (T, 1, 2, 3, 4) but any amount of time on a harder gripper will beat any amount of time on an easier gripper. For example, if you get a 5 second hold with a #3 and I get a 50 second hold with a #2, you beat me. BC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Van Weele Posted July 18, 2003 Share Posted July 18, 2003 Thanks for clearing that up. I guess if I could read I would have seen that in the events section. For some reason I thought it was for reps. Maybe that was Ricks contest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Walker Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 No reps here-just straight closing. Ties are decided by timed holds- The more grip contests the better! Just keep in mind guys-I WILL ALWAYS offer the best prizes and $$. Just think of me like the WPO except with out the scandal and boucing checks!!! Next year-we are talking $$ for winning. Time to make a living out of our training-right!!!!!! I have driven to MN before-19 straight hours with the wife and radio-NEVER AGAIN-unless maybe I get to train with Wade Gillingham and Co. And YES-I drove the whole way there AND back. Rick Walker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bseedot Posted August 18, 2003 Share Posted August 18, 2003 Just keep in mind guys-I WILL ALWAYS offer the best prizes and $$. Pretty bold statement, Rick- especially considering that I'm going to win the Powerball this Wednesday. Wade's a nice guy- I'm sure if you drove 19 hours he'd train with you... BC.
