So, it won't be there by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubthewonderscot Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 I could witness as an alternate in case Chris can't be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricMilfeld Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 I was thinking about that Dub, but I won't be off work again until Chris returns home on the 21st. I guess we could meet before I go to work, but my crush is mediocre till later in the afternoon, and I may need every bit of strenght I have. If the gripper arrives on the afternoon of Tues. the 16th, I'll certify that evening over at Chris's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strongmitts Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Eric made three valiant attempts at the gripper and just missed them all by a hair. He didn't try to make excuses, he simply stated that he just wasn't strong enough to close it. Eric is a first class guy, and I know he will close this gripper in the future.

strongmitts Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Wannagrip & Gripboard, thank you for the opportunity to participate in the gripboard mash monster certification process. It was a joy and a honor, and I hope to certify Eric in the near future. The gripper will be sent out tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Piche Posted November 17, 2004 Author Share Posted November 17, 2004 Thanks for sending it out so quick. He'll get it next time for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricMilfeld Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Thanks for all the support and well wishes, guys. My crush was stronger than it's ever been before when I attempted the MM1 tonight, yet I could only manage to get it down to about 1/16". I guess it's better to fail in top shape than to miss due to an off day or a silly mistake. But atleast now I know where I have to be with my personal grippers before taking another shot at it. And to all you certified Mash Monsters - !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankyBoy Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Damned, soooo close. Well, don't be too disappointed Eric. This time that gripper could surprise you, next time you'll get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jad Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 I'm sure you'll get it next time. Sounds like you know how to handle defeat with class which is far more important than closing grippers. Stay strong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
