twig Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 If you've been gripping a week and you can pinch 5 dimes already, you're gonna need a gripper a damn sight harder than an HG200! (And on that note I'd like to announce my retirement from grip!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously im buying one tommorow so do think i should get a stronger one if so what would you suggest, And how come your retiring from grip, (injury, work/family commitments, just not interested anymore) thankyou for your help so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twig Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I'd suggest a 250, if not a 300. (ahd the retireing thing was sarcasm cos I've been here a long time and are still not quite at the 5X5 yet, you'll soon know not everything I say is meant to be taken seriously!)

Ohh okay I get the sarcasm I just didnt realise 5 dime pinch is quite a feat. On that note I held a 6 dime pinch for 3 secs before it spilled out from the middle today. (LH) I dont count it a proper hold unless i can hold hold it for 5 secs and be able to do it in front of someone at will. And awesome i guess grip really is my calling. AWESOME I brought a hg250 and I cut a 2by6 to a foot length and I drilled 2 holes in it for 1 hand and 2 hand pinching Il upload a vid today of my heavist one hand pinch and 2 hand pinch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
