easyWeight Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Well, finally got around to getting my official IM Red Nail Cert. today. Here's the video: I also hit a couple more solid PRs using IMPs and a big one using 1.25" singles; 6"x9mm CRS. I didn't bother turning the camera on for this because I didn't expect to even kink it, but here's a picture: http://www.gripboard.com/index.php?app=gallery&module=images§ion=viewimage&img=9328 Thanks guys!

David_wigren Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Even though the challange from ironmind has been dominated now. It's still quite prestigious to be on that list. Good stuff Darin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good stuff Darin Yeah there's quite a few names on the list these days. Doesn't make it any less of feat though. All it means is you weren't born or into grip early enough to make it on the list when there were few names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim71 Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Great job! How hard does that 9mm rank? Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

easyWeight Posted November 13, 2009 Author Share Posted November 13, 2009 (edited) Thanks to all of you guys for your replies and kind words! Tim, I have no idea what that 9mm calibrates at and I'm a real poor judge, especially with as strong as my kink has been lately. If I had to take a guess it's definitely greater than 660bs judging from a 6x5/16 stainless Eric calibrated for me...that I haven't managed to crush down yet If I can manage to finish the 9mm under three minutes, I'll send one off and find out for sure Edited November 13, 2009 by easyWeight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
