lukeamdman Posted November 24, 2009 Author Share Posted November 24, 2009 Did some grippers. RH got my adjustable SE at 181.5lb's down to 1/8" or less twice, and the LH is still barely missing the 170lb #3.5. Ended with some overcrushes with the 5/8" GM.

Cannon Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Looking good. You should have given that 3.5 a shot on your right! If you got that SE down that far, the 3.5 might have been shut! You're playing in MM3 territory now . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeamdman Posted November 24, 2009 Author Share Posted November 24, 2009 That #3.5 has a harder sweep, so I get them both down to about the same place. MM3 is definitely the goal right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnus Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 I'd definitely give the lefty #3.5 close a white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeamdman Posted December 6, 2009 Author Share Posted December 6, 2009 I felt the handles touch, but that darn pegged leg makes the video look strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
