Eric,

  Congrats on another great contest victory as well as hosting what looks like lots of strong men and women! Special shout out to your Dub Hub, Tips Tester, Wrist Wrench -Ox strong again and medley performance! Thanks for mention, I was happy to sponsor. One more thing, after your performance at Arnolds and now the Great Canadian Blizzard Grip you MUST include yourself in the top 10 in North American grip rankings- You belong on that top 10 list again and most on this planet agree with me.

I appreciate the vote of confidence, but I don’t think my results justify inclusion just yet. However, in May I’ll be competing with Brad, James, and a bunch of other beasts at Canadian Grip Sport Nationals. If I do well there, then maybe I’ll change my tune. :)

Crazy strong and humble! Interesting question I have for you- your IM axle performance at Arnolds - pulling 415.57 LB @ BWT 197.53 is that the best ever double BWT plus 20.51 Lbs ever in a contest of this caliber?

Good question. It’s likely in the ballpark. I’m not sure what Andrew Durniat or Tanner’s best figures for this, but they must be close. I think Andrew is the heaviest person to have a double body weight lift.

I feel like I may have asked this of someone once before so forgive me if this is duplicative, but is Dynamometer ever going to be added as an event in the grip sport top 100s?

We also did it at Gripmas (also the Baseline digital)

@Eric Roussini do strongly agree with Michael on your earned position on the top 10 North American list.
