dubyagrip Posted October 31, 2023 Author Share Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) I really dropped the ball here on updates. I did not attempt the 3.5 cert at KK 2023. I caught COVID several weeks prior, and I also reinjured my wrist a week prior. In order to preserve my ability for a strong showing and world record at King Kong, I stepped away from my CCS gripper training. I do have the cert gripper, as Ironmind sent it anyway, but the package is still sealed as it was delivered to me by the post office. I will plan to attempt it soon, if Ironmind will still honor it. I don't see an issue, as I stated the package is unopened in my desk. Stay tuned. EDIT: I made an advanced effort to let Doc Randall know before the gripper was set to be shipped. He was very understanding and accommodating. Edited October 31, 2023 by dubyagrip 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubyagrip Posted November 13, 2023 Author Share Posted November 13, 2023 Now that all comps are over for 2023, it is time to go back to my first love... This was more about figuring out where I am on grippers than anything else so I can get back in shape on them and finally cert the 3.5... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dubyagrip Posted December 19, 2023 Author Share Posted December 19, 2023 (edited) The journey, once again, nears its end. Got a random 3.5 from Amazon, I wish you could have seen my face when I saw the spread. This one was 76mm. My 182 RGC 3.5 is 72mm. I sense my cert gripper will be narrower than both. I will certify on this goddamn son-of-a-bitch next week and end this chapter in my gripper journey.

Cannon Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 You gave that thing a ride man. You’re also attempting this at a time when #3.5s have been, on average, the hardest CPW have ever tracked. That gripper is no daisy. You will be on this list. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blacksmith513 Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Yeah man you will be on this list soon. You didn’t fail. Failure would be if you never tried in the first place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dubyagrip Posted February 21 Author Share Posted February 21 @A.J. Valcarcel sent me a sweet wooden set block and some really nice words, so I decided to use that energy and punish that no good SOB 3.5 gripper that robbed me of my cert. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
