wscorpion Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Had a nice PR today with the one hand lift (200kg) even though I never trained for it. After that decided to give the #3 another go and actually closed it with a MMS So it took me about 1/2 year for the last mm of the #3, but I must admit that I haven't trained for it anymore. Only trained on CCS or TNS closes with the #2.5 and vicegripper. Maybe that was enough to close the last mm of the #3 So now the next target is CCS the #3 and MMS the #3.5. Onwards to victory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim71 Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Mark, Super job on the #3. I'm nowhere close right now for that gripper. I just started them myself and they are addictive. Keep at it! Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wscorpion Posted May 2, 2008 Author Share Posted May 2, 2008 Thanks guys!! @Ben, I hardly ever bend anymore since I feel I need to focus more on other grip events for the upcoming contests. Once every month or so I do some bending, so I can still bend the shiny and bending the bastard reverse is also possible For now that's sufficient, but times might change @Hugo, #3.5 is hard, but I will continue and eventually close it;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thearm95 Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Congrats Mark! Now maybe go for the RB260 or 300N?...(Mine are both a little above my #3s) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wscorpion Posted May 2, 2008 Author Share Posted May 2, 2008 Thanks guys! @Duncan, I don't have any other grippers then the IM's, but the 3.5 definitely still is a huge step away However, I just closed it, so I can still continue on the #3 for multiple reps and CCS / TNS closes. So for now I still have some work to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
