Forever Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Was he just trying to rep that MM6 at the end? Sick. Just watched it entirely. That was some beast of a crush...it looked like a MM6 double Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannon Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 One of the biggest surprises I've ever got watching a grip video. I couldn't BELIEVE it when you went for a second rep Tim. And it looks like it was there. In my opinion, this re-writes what is possible on the MM ladder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timstruse Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Bad set - first attemptGood set - second attempt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timstruse Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Thanks guys. I can't explain why I went for the double, except that I was amped up and the set felt perfect on the second attempt. In the post above I've posted stills of the sets on first and second attempt to show how much difference a few milimeters can make on the set. The first attempt was a bad set and you can see my pinky doesn't get much wrap - the close was slow and labored. On the second attempt the gripper is set lower on the pinky and the close had much more power. I'm not really trying to make a point here, except to reiterate the importance of a good set and the narrow margin between a good and bad set!

Wow Tim, just Wow .... you are ready for the MM7 no doubt. I mean nothing by respect when I say I think you dramatized the first close to be nice .... You man handled the MM6 which no one has done and I belive we have a true back and forth ahead of us .... at this point I need to muster up and focus my efforts again because you are the real deal. Thanks for being a true sportsman and keeping the game alive. Kudos! and game on! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a little scared to see what you're capable of with someone pushing you! Congrats Tim! That was crazy awesome! Concerning Paul's abilities? You nailed it when you mentioned someone pushing Paul. It's been my experience from knowing Paul for a while now (long before he came to the GB) and watching him be pushed (challenged) in other sports that he also went to the top that when he's challenged he does things that AMAZE and DAZZLE! I hope you and others keep progressing so we can see just what Paul IS capable of crushing! SCARY!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
