lifesnotfair Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Congratulations to both! Talking about comparing closes, I absolutely loved how Rob Vigeant held the MM3 closed for what seemed like forever, that must be one of my favourite Mash Monster videos. I also liked Teemu's MM3 close because he paused at parallel for a little while (a second?) which absolutely kills momentum and makes it so much harder! So, for all you strong bastards, don't just try to close the gripper.... try to do it in the most dominant fashion ever!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Mathison Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Congrats guys.. those were some of the easiest closes I've seen on the MM1. Great video too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobsterone Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I bet I say less and less as we progress. Around MM3-4 it'll be 'over here, grunt, grunt'. If I get to 5 it'll be 'rahhhhhhh'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florian Kellersmann Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Good job, guys. The MM2 video will look very similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Piche Posted August 27, 2008 Author Share Posted August 27, 2008 After we dragged Mobster across the carpet for not knowing the rules, he was like the "rules task master" on the video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teemu I Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 After we dragged Mobster across the carpet for not knowing the rules, he was like the "rules task master" on the video. Certainly so! He really made sure it was done properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He really made sure it was done properly. Haha exactly Bill!! After the controversy last time there's not even a tiny margin for debate here. Well done guys!! I'm curious to know how far you guys can go as well. Bill, I have a question if you don't mind me asking, about the gripper being the "same." Obviously it's the same gripper, but as people have brought up in the past it doesn't seem to be oiled regularly (taken from others as I have no experience)which makes it harder as it goes on because of binding and rust. What's the deal with oiling of the MM grippers? Just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedd is handling the M1 through M3 (Thanks Jedd!!!!). We'll make sure it stays oiled (not excessively!) and does not bind and the handles get cleaned.

Good to hear Bill, obviously I just wanted to make sure the first closes weren't in any way easier then those of today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
